4. Permanently Mounting the Transducer

NOTE: Once permanently mounted, you will not be able to make further adjustments to the transducer.

Coating the Transducer with Epoxy

Pressing the Transducer Into Place

1.Make sure the position of the transducer is marked.

2.Remove the water from inside the hull and thoroughly dry the mounting surface. If the surface is excessively rough, it may be necessary to sand the area to provide a smooth mounting surface.

3.Mix an ample quantity of two-part slow cure epoxy slowly and thoroughly. Avoid trapping air bubbles.

4.Coat the face of the transducer and the inside of the hull with epoxy (see the illustration Coating the Transducer with Epoxy).

5.Press the transducer into place with a slight twisting motion to purge any trapped air from underneath, keeping the pointed end of the transducer body pointed forward, towards the bow (see the illustration Pressing the Transducer Into Place).

NOTE: Proper operation requires the pointed end of the transducer body to face towards the bow.

6.Weight the transducer so that it will not move while the epoxy is curing.

NOTE: When the epoxy cures, no water is necessary inside the hull.
