If possible, route the transducer cable away from other wiring on the boat. Electrical noise from the engine's wiring, bilge pumps, VHF radio wires and cables, and aerators can be picked up by the sonar. Use caution when routing the transducer cable around these wires.
WARNING:
Clamp the transducer cable to the transom close to the transducer. This can prevent the transducer from enter- ing the boat if it is knocked off at high speed.
If you need to drill a hole in the transom to pass the connector through, the required hole size is 5/8".
Caution:
If you drill a hole in the transom for the cable, make sure it is lo- cated above the waterline. After installation, be sure to seal the hole with the same marine grade above- or
