Transom Mount Intelliducer Installation Instructions
To mount the Intelliducer on a transom:
1.PositiontheIntelliducermountattheselectedtransomlocation.MakesuretheIntelliduceris
parallelwiththewaterline.MarkthecenterlocationsofeachholeontheIntelliducermount.
Apply marine sealant to all screw
threads to prevent water from
seeping into the transom.
Mount the Intelliducer
cable cover far above
the waterline.
Intelliducer should extend
1
/
8
in. (. mm) below
a fiberglass hull or
3
/
8
in. (9.5 mm) below an
aluminum hull.
Ensure that the Intelliducer is
below water level when the boat
is on plane at high speed.
Do not mount the Intelliducer directly in the path of the
propeller. The Intelliducer can cause cavitation that may
degrade the boat performance and damage the propeller.
Mount the Intelliducer parallel
with the bottom.
