Installing the

Sidelooker

Transducer on a

Trolling Motor

Detailed instructions for these installations will be included with the transducer(s). The Downlooker transducer is mounted on the horizontal gear case of the motor. The Sidelooker transducer is attached to the vertical support tube. These installations are simple, but it is important to keep these points in mind:

1.Keep the Sidelooker transducer fully submerged. The transducer will only produce an image if it is immersed in water.

2.Keep the Sidelooker transducer clear of weeds or debris.

3.When the position of the trolling motor is changed, the field of view of the Sidelooker also changes. The Sidelooker can be aimed at interesting echoes, but can also be positioned so that it is looking back at the hull. Be aware of the position of the Sidelooker trans- ducer.
