Now locate the transducer and the remaining hardware.
Install the transducer onto the angle bracket. The flat edge
of the transducer should be facing the boat. Install the two
short screws through the transducer slots and into the angle
bracket slots. Place the washers and then the nuts onto the
screws and tighten, only slightly. Slide the transducer up
and forward in the bracket as far as it will go and then tight-
en the screws firmly.
Finally, install the safety rope. Tie the rope around the
upper end of the slot in the metal angle bracket. You will
tie the other end to the boat.

ducers position in the bracket to match the angle in which
you mount it on your boat. Ideally, it should point straight
down when your boat is normally loaded.
Wet the suction cup and press the assembly onto the
surface of the hull in the area where you are going the attach
it. Slide the assembly up or down until the bottom edge of
the transducer is close to the bottom edge of the hull.
Tie the end of the safety rope to the boat. Leave as lit-
tle slack in the rope as you can. If the suction cup lets loose,
the rope may save your transducer and depth sounder from
being lost.
If your boat has a flat transom and you wish to get clear
readings while the boat is moving at a faster speed, you
