Installing the Transducer on a Pole
You can use the included hardware to install the transducer on a pole (not included). Installing the transducer on a pole is similar to installing the transducer on a trolling motor shaft. If needed, you can refer to the diagram provided for installing the transducer on a trolling motor shaft when installing the transducer on a pole (Installing the Transducer on the Trolling Motor Shaft ).
NOTE:
The included shaft bracket features an 8-degree angle to reduce the effects of the trolling motor barrel interference with the transducer beam. When installing the transducer on a pole, you can purchase a flat bracket with no angle if you prefer. See your
Garmin® dealer or go to
buy.garmin.com for details.
Labels identifying the parts bags required for this procedure:
You must secure the transducer cable to the pole or other secure location during installation. Damage to the transducer cable wire or the cable jacket can cause transducer failure.
