Mounting Considerations
The use of third-party or self-fabricated mounts could lead to transducer damage or loss. Damage or loss sustained when using a third-party or self-fabricated mount is not covered under warranty.
-
Perspective Mount (Installing the Transducer on the Perspective Mode Mount)
-
You can mount the transducer on a trolling motor shaft using the perspective view bracket.
-
You can use the transducer in perspective view, or rotate the bracket into the side shaft configuration to use forward and downward views.
-
-
Barrel Mount (Installing the Transducer on a Trolling Motor Barrel)
-
You can mount the transducer on either side of a trolling motor barrel.
-
When mounted on a trolling motor barrel, you can use the transducer for downward and forward views.
-
When mounted on a trolling motor barrel, you cannot use the transducer for perspective view.
-
-
Bottom Mount
- You can mount the transducer to the bottom mount of a Force® Kraken trolling motor (Installing the Transducer on the Force Kraken LiveScope Mounting Bracket) or a Spy Pole™ mount (Installing the Transducer on the Bottom Mount of a Spy Pole Mount).
- When installed using the bottom mount method, you can use the transducer for forward, downward, and perspective views.
When planning the installation, you should observe these considerations.
-
You must angle the transducer correctly for the selected view to work properly.
-
Installing the transducer with the included knobs allows for tool-free transitions between sonar views.
-
You can use the included low-profile hardware instead of the knobs for a more permanent transducer view position.
-
You should mount the transducer in a location where it will not be jarred when launching, hauling, or storing.
