Suport de muntatge sobre bola 0 graus per LiveScope

The Garmin LiveScope 0-degree ball-mount bracket (part number 010-12676-15) is a technical mounting solution designed to optimize the accuracy of your sonar system. Its main advantage is eliminating the 8-degree tilt often present with standard clamps, ensuring perfect alignment of the transducer for more precise sonar returns.

By correcting the 8-degree tilt of factory mounts, this 0-degree model ensures perfect geometric alignment of the transducer. This results in a sharper sonar image, clearer bottom contours, and better-defined fish schools, improving synchronization between sonar data and GPS.

For installation, you will need a Phillips screwdriver size #2, 2.5 mm, 5 mm, and 6 mm Allen keys (included), diagonal cutters, electrical tape, cable ties, a ring spanner (included), marine grease (included), and a torque wrench.

Yes, once installed, the mount allows adjustment of the transducer's viewing angle according to preferred display modes (forward, down, perspective). It is important to firmly tighten the adjustment knobs before each use to maintain the chosen position.

It is imperative to use only the hardware included in this kit to prevent damage to the trolling motor and the transducer, and to ensure proper operation. The bolts included may differ from those supplied with your LiveScope transducer, and using incorrect bolts could result in product damage and failure.

This mount is compatible with a range of Garmin LiveScope transducers, including the LiveScope™ Plus LVS34, Panoptix LiveScope™ LVS32, and LiveScope™ XR LVS62 models.

No, this mount is specifically designed for integration on the Garmin Force Kraken electric trolling motor. It is optimized to work with this trolling motor model.

You can mount your LiveScope transducer on either the starboard or port side of your trolling motor shaft. Once the transducer is mounted, the motor can only be stowed in one direction, so it is important to choose the side toward which you want the propeller to face when stowed, as this cannot be changed after installation.

Yes, it is mandatory to always disconnect the engine from the battery before performing any work, including opening the shaft housing. Failure to follow this instruction may result in electric shock or engine damage.

When installing the propeller drive motor, you must gently pull the ends of the power cables as you feed them through the shaft. It is crucial to pull on the cable itself and not on the connectors to avoid any damage.

Yes, it is recommended to apply marine grease (included in the kit) on the new blue and black engine gaskets before installing them. This ensures better sealing and makes installation easier.

Yes, you must apply medium-strength thread locking compound (not included), such as LOCTITE 243™, to the threads of the six threaded holes on top of the propeller drive motor. This is essential to maintain a watertight connection between the shaft base and the propeller drive motor and prevent water ingress.

After aligning the shaft base and the propeller drive motor and hand-tightening the six bolts slightly, you must use a torque wrench to tighten them to 4 N·m (35 lbf·in).

After cutting the locking ring of the LiveScope cable connector, route the cable a few feet into the shaft through the lateral hole of the downshaft adapter. It is recommended to leave approximately 15 to 20 cm (6 to 8 inches) of LiveScope cable between the downshaft adapter and the transducer to allow repositioning and mode switching after installation.

No, you must bundle the power cables and any existing transducer cables in a triangular pattern, with the transducer cable leading by about 7.5 cm (3 in), and bundle them every 15 cm (6 in). However, you must not include the LiveScope cable in this bundle.

Yes, it is strongly advised to have a second person or an adjustable support to hold the motor when removing and reinstalling the propeller drive motor. This will greatly facilitate the installation.
