Adjust transducer position by either loosening the red adjustment lock

(for height), or rotating the swing arm (side to side). Press lightly on

the ratchet end to hold the arm in position and resist side movement.

Tip:

When landing a fish, push the arm to one side or just grab the
swing arm, lift it out of your fishing hole and lay it to one side.

OPTIONAL PORTABLE TRANSDUCER ASSEMBLY

Assemble the Skimmer transducer and portable mounting bracket as
shown in the following illustrations. (Skimmers are available with
built-in temperature sensors, which allow your unit to display water
temperature.)

Make sure there is one washer on each side of the transducer, inside the
bracket. Slide the other washer over the end of the bolt and screw on the nut.

Screw the suction cup onto the bracket using the supplied screw and
flat washer. Tie the nylon cord through the hole in the top of the
bracket. When using the transducer, tie the other end of the nylon cord
to the boat. This will help prevent losing the transducer if it comes off.
