TROLLING MOTOR TRANSDUCER Installation Guide
Use the instructions in this guide to install the transducer on your trolling motor.
WARNING! Disconnect the trolling motor from all sources of electrical power before you start the
installation.
CAUTION! Do NOT install the hose clamps where they can come into contact with the trolling
motor support rails.
NOTE: The procedures and features described in this guide are subject to change without notice.
This guide was written in English and may have been translated to another language. Humminbird®
is not responsible for incorrect translations or discrepancies between documents.
NOTE: Your transducer may not look exactly like the transducer shown in the illustrations, but
it will mount in exactly the same way.
Read the instructions in this transducer guide completely to understand the mounting
guidelines before starting the installation.
Disconnect Power: Disconnect the trolling motor from all sources of electrical power before
you start the installation.
Test Route the Cable Installation: Test route the transducer cable connector to the control
head and confirm that the cable is long enough for the planned route. Your boat may have a
pre-existing wiring channel or conduit that you can use for the transducer cable. See section
3: Route the Cable for requirements.
WARNING! Do not route the cable where it can be damaged by the trolling motor during
operation or while stowing and deploying.
NOTE: If the cable is too short, extension cables are available. Contact Humminbird Technical
Support for more information.

| Test the Transducer Prior to Installation
Prior to installation, test the transducer to make sure that no damage occurred during shipping.
1. Confirm the control head is connected to power. See your control head installation guide for
instructions.
2. Connect the transducer cable to the control head. See section 4: Connect the Cable.
3. Lower the transducer into the water.
WARNING! The transducer must be fully submerged in water during operation because the
sonar signal cannot pass through air. Air pinging can damage the transducer.
4. Power On: Press the POWER key to turn on the control head.
If the transducer is detected, the control head will start Normal mode.
