idea to make a "test run" before you permanently install
the transducer to make sure that you can indeed get a read-
ing through your hull and at all speeds. Put about a half
inch of water in the bottom of the boat and hold the trans-
ducer in the intended location. Move the transducer around
until you get the best reading. Mark the spot.

To install the transducer, first clean the spot of mud and

oil. Using an epoxy or silicone glue, make a puddle, about
the same size as the transducer, on the inside of the hull.
Place the transducer in the glue. Press it down firmly, gen-
tly twisting it back and forth, making sure that there are
no air bubbles in the glue between the transducer and the
hull. Let the glue dry completely before turning the unit
on.

PERMANENT MOUNTING (Optional)

You can permanently mount the LC-10 to your boat, yet

maintain the easy portability for times when you go fish-
ing in another boat. You will need to have a battery in your
boat to power the unit. Also, you will need to order the
optional Boundary
Waters Mounting
Kit. This kit con-
tains a swivel gim-
bal mount, a trans-
ducer mounting
bracket, and power
cord.
