Installing An External Transducer - MINN KOTA FORTREX Manuel Du Propriétaire

INSTALLING AN EXTERNAL TRANSDUCER

INSTALLING AN EXTERNAL TRANSDUCER
An external transducer is not included with your trolling motor. An external transducer can be installed onto motors that have Universal
Sonar or motors that do not have a built in transducer. For more information on Universal Sonar, please visit minnkotamotors.com.
Installing an external transducer is not recommended for motors with Built-in MEGA Down Imaging.
1
a. Mount the External Transducer according to
directions provided with the transducer.
b. Leave enough slack in the Transducer Cable between
the Lower Unit and Control Head to allow the motor
to properly stow and deploy.
c. Use two tie wrap cables to secure the Transducer
Cable to the Shaft just above the Lower Unit and just
below the Control Head.
d. Run the Transducer Cable through the Coil Cord to
the power supply.
CAUTION
Not following the recommended wire routing for External
Transducer Cables may cause damage to the product and
void your product warranty. Take care to test the length and
placement of cable to be sure that there is enough slack
where needed and that cables are free of being entangled
in moving parts. Routing the cables in any way other than
directed may cause damage to the cables by being pinched
or severed.
NOTICE:
For additional details on cable routing
see the "Routing Connection Cables" section of
this manual.
