TRANSDUCERS |
The HS-NS and HS-NSPC are 192 kHz, 8 degree cone angle transducers. The HS-WS-50 and HS-WS-50D are 50 kHz, 36 degree cone angle transducers. The HS-WS-50/192 is a dual frequency transducer with 192 kHz, 20 degree and 50 kHz, 36 degree cone angle elements. All are transom mount transducers. They can be installed on any outboard or stern-drive powered boat. Do not use these transducers on an inboard powered boat. The HS-NSPC has a power cable attached to the connector. Follow the installation instructions for the power cable on the back of this manual. Please install the HS-NSPC transducer before wiring it's power cable.
Please read these instructions carefully before installing your transducer. The transducer mounting location is the most critical part of a sonar installation. If it isn’t done properly, the sonar can’t perform to its potential.
ASSEMBLY
1.Locate the four ratchets in the transducer's hardware package. Note there are letters engraved into one side of each ratchet. These are for the coarse angle adjustment. A standard transom angle is 14 degrees. By aligning a letter on the ratchet to the alignment mark on the the transducer bracket, the correct transducer angle can be attained. Once you've determined the correct angle, press one ratchet on each side of the transducer and one ratchet on each transducer bracket as shown below.

This is the way the transducer should look when it's mounted on the transom.
