858c & 958c Transom Mount Transducer Installation

DualBeam PLUS™ Transducer, XNT 9 20 T (858c and 958c only)

The DualBeam PLUS™ transducer uses a Two Piece Kick-up transducer mounting bracket.

NOTE: Due to the wide variety of hulls, only general instructions are presented in this installation guide. Each boat hull represents a unique set of requirements that should be evaluated prior to installation. It is important to read the instructions completely and understand the mounting guidelines before beginning installation.

NOTE: Your transducer may not look exactly like the transducer shown in the illustrations, but it will mount in exactly the same way.

Overview

If you will be installing a DualBeam PLUS™ transom mounted transducer, use the procedures in this section. There are several procedures you will have to perform in order to install a transom-mounted transducer. They are as follows:

•Locate the transducer mounting location

•Prepare the mounting location

•Assemble the transducer and perform initial mounting

•Route the transducer cable

•Connect the transducer cable

•Perform a final test of the transom transducer installation.

In addition to the hardware supplied with your transducer, you will need a powered hand drill and various drill bits, various hand tools, including a ruler or straightedge, a level, a 12" plumb line (weighted string or monofilament line), marker or pencil, safety glasses and dust mask, and marine-grade silicone sealant.

NOTE: When drilling holes in fiberglass hulls, it is best to start with a smaller bit and use progressively larger drill bits to reduce the chance of chipping or flaking the outer coating.
