5. If access to the top mounting hole is not possible due to the selected height of |
the transducer, fully tighten the two lower screws, then simply remove the |
headed pivot pin and the transducer assembly, and tighten the top screw, then |
CAUTION! Do not cut or shorten the transducer cable, and try not to damage the cable insulation. Route the cable as far as possible from any VHF radio antenna cables or tachometer cables to reduce the possibility of interference. If the cable is too short, extension cables are available to extend the transducer cable up to a total of 50' (15 m). For assistance, contact the Customer Resource Center at www.humminbird.com or call
NOTE: Since the transducer may need to pivot up to 90 degrees in the bracket if it strikes an object, make sure there is sufficient cable slack to accommodate this motion. It is best to route the cable to the side of the transducer so the cable will not be damaged by the rotation of the transducer.
2.If you will be routing the cable through a hole in the transom, drill a 5/8" diameter (16 mm) hole above the waterline. Route the cable through this hole, then fill the hole with

6. Confirm that the pivot angle has not changed and that all mounting screws are |
fully tightened. |
To route the transom transducer cable:
The transducer cable has a low profile connector that must be routed to the point where the control head is mounted. There are several ways to route the transducer cable to the area where the control head will be installed. The most common procedure routes the cable through the transom into the boat.
NOTE: Your boat may have a
1.Unplug the other end of the transducer cable from the control head. Make sure that the cable is long enough to accommodate the planned route by running the cable over the transom.

4.Route and secure the cable by attaching the cable clamp to the transom; drill one 9/64" dia. (3.5 mm) x 5/8" deep (16 mm) hole, then fill hole with marine- grade silicone sealant, then attach the cable clamp using a #8 x 5/8" (16 mm) screw.
5.Plug the other end of the transducer cable back into the control head connection holder.
