1.1.5 Installing stays (anti-vibration measure)

Install stays from the top of the hull unit to the ship’s hull. The stays should be angle iron with a size of 75⋅75⋅9 mm or more and at least two pieces should be used; one each to ship’s bow and stern directions. Install if possible, two more stays in ship’s transverse direction. This measure must be done to prevent damage to the transducer.

Proper installation of stays

Do not install the stays on a crossbeam on an overhead. Vibration-resistance effect is reduced since vibration is applied to the stays as rotation force. Install them horizontally.
