2 Secure the hose clamp around the trolling motor . NOTE: Do not rotate the transducer. 3 Secure the transducer cable to the motor shaft or other secure location. 4 Route the transducer cable to the installation location of the sonar module while taking these precautions. • You should not route the cable close to electrical wires or other sources of electrical interference. • You must route the cable so it is not pinched when the trolling motor is deployed or stowed. NOTE: If necessary, for extra cable length you can connect an optional extension cable, available at buy.garmin.com or from your Garmin dealer. 5 Position the transducer to your desired angle (Trolling Motor Mount Orientation, page 3). Trolling Motor Mount Orientation The orientation depends on which side of the trolling motor you have mounted the transducer on, and your desired field of view. TIP: No tools are necessary to change the orientation from forward to down. Turn the mount one click to change the orientation from forward to down. Assembling the Trolling Motor Shaft Mount Hardware With the trolling motor bracket oriented correctly (Trolling Motor Shaft Bracket Orientation, page 3), use the included hex wrench to attach the transducer to the trolling shaft bracket with the shoulder screw , flat washer , and rubber washer . NOTE: You must fully tighten the mount to the transducer. The recommended torque applied to the shoulder screw is 2.5 lb-ft. (3.4 N-m). Installing the Transducer on the Trolling Motor Shaft NOTICE You must secure the transducer cable to the shaft or other secure location during installation. Damage to the transducer cable wire or the cable jacket can cause transducer failure. You should mount the transducer as far from the motor as possible. You should use the included rubber insert on a 25 mm (1 in.) trolling motor shaft. 1 Using the included hex wrench, insert the M6 screws and attach the shaft trolling bracket to the transducer bracket around the trolling motor shaft.
