the transom. The bottom of the bracket should be flush with the hull's 
bottom. Using the sensor as a template, mark the hull for the screws' 
pilot holes. Drill four 1/8" holes, one in each end of the slots. 
Mount the sensor to the hull using #8 stainless steel wood screws (not 
included). Use a high quality, marine grade above- or below-waterline 
sealant to seal the screws. Make sure the sensor is flush with the bot-
tom of the hull and tighten the screws.

If the base of the transom has a radius, fill the gap between the tran-
som and the sensor with the sealant. This will help ensure a smooth 
water flow. 
Route the sensor's cable through or over the transom to the sonar unit. 
If you need to drill a hole in the transom to pass the connector through, 
the required hole size is 7/8". 
CAUTION: 
If you drill a hole in the transom for the cable, make sure it is 
located above the waterline. After installation, be sure to seal the 
hole with the same marine grade above- or below-waterline 
sealant used for the screws. 
The sensor is now ready for use. Connect the sensor to the sonar socket 
on the back of your unit and connect the transducer to the speed sen-
sor's socket. If you have any questions concerning the installation of 
the sensor, please contact your local boat dealer.
