Inside Hull Mounting Procedure | Humminbird LCR 8000D specification

wrench provided. The screws are visible through the access holes on each side of the metal bracket. Check to make sure the transducer main body is rigidly fastened to the pivot. (See Figure H)

Step 6

CHECK POSITION OF TRANSDUCER- At this point, check to see that the bottom of the transducer is a minimum of ¼” below the bottom of the transom. (However, as noted in STEP 2, the top of the transducer cannot fall below the bottom of the transom). If it is not, remove the transducer assembly from the metal bracket by removing the pin installed during STEP 3. Loosen the metal bracket mounting screws, re-position the bracket utilizing it’s slotted holes, tighten and re-assemble. It may be necessary to replace the silicone sealant after this adjustment is made.

NOTE: It may be necessary to make several high speed runs to adjust transducer either UP/DOWN or to re-adjust the angle to achieve optimum results.

Step 7

CABLE CLAMPS- Install cable clamps as necessary by drilling a 1/8” dia. hole for the # 8 screw supplied.

2. INSIDE HULL MOUNTING PROCEDURE

Warning: In order to achieve proper results with this type installation, it is important that the transducer be mounted by someone familiar with the use of two part epoxy adhesives. For this reason, Techsonic Industries, Inc. will not be responsible for any damage due to the mounting of your transducer in this manner.

NOTE: An Epoxy Kit (Part N. EPK) is available from Humminbird. This Epoxy Kit has been formulated for Inside Hull Transducer Installation.

1.Select as flat an area as possible near the aft end and center of boat where the hull is thin and not double. If the bottom has a runner down the center of boat, select an area to one side of the runner, but as close to the runner as possible.

2.Clean the inside of the boat with lacquer thinner in the area transducer is to be mounted. Outside of boat in this area should also be cleaned. (Not with lacquer thinner).

3.Put approximately one inch of water in the bottom of the boat.

4.Put transducer in the water. The bottom of the transducer should be in a flat area and should be in good contact with the bottom of the boat.

5.Operate the LCR with the boat operating at high speed. The transducer may have to be moved in order to find an area where satisfactory operation is observed.

6.When an area is found that produces satisfactory operation, mark the location of the transducer.

LCR 8000D, LCR 8000 specifications

The Humminbird LCR 8000 and LCR 8000D are advanced fish finders designed for avid anglers who seek precision and reliability on the water. These devices are known for their high-performance features that enhance the fishing experience, making it easier to locate fish and understand underwater structures.

One of the standout characteristics of the LCR 8000 series is its large display, which typically measures 8 inches. The screen is designed to offer exceptional clarity and visibility, even in bright sunlight. With a resolution of 640 x 480 pixels, users can expect sharp images and detailed sonar readings. The LCR 8000D version takes this a step further with additional features such as a split-screen display, allowing users to monitor multiple functions simultaneously.

These models integrate advanced sonar technology, including dual-beam sonar capabilities. The LCR 8000 and 8000D can operate on both narrow and wide beam frequencies, enabling anglers to cover more water and get a more comprehensive view of underwater environments. The fish symbol identification feature provides an intuitive way for users to discern between fish and other objects, enhancing their chances of a successful catch.

Another notable feature is the AutoZoom capability, which automatically adjusts the viewing area to focus on the depth range where fish are most likely to be present. This real-time information helps users make quick decisions about where to cast their lines.

Additionally, the LCR 8000D offers an integrated temperature sensor, providing real-time water temperature readings that can be crucial for understanding fish behavior. The ability to record sonar logs is another innovative aspect, allowing users to review their fishing trips and analyze data for future outings.

Both models boast rugged construction suitable for various weather conditions, ensuring durability on the water. The user-friendly interface and straightforward controls make it accessible for both seasoned professionals and recreational anglers alike.

In conclusion, the Humminbird LCR 8000 and LCR 8000D represent a significant advancement in fish finding technology, combining powerful sonar capabilities, user-friendly design, and robust construction. These devices are designed to elevate the fishing experience, enabling users to optimize their time on the water and increase their chances of success.
