Adapter kit for mounting HV-100 on trolling motor

The Raymarine A80557 adapter kit is specifically designed to mount the HV-100 HyperVision transducer on most trolling motors. It ensures stable and secure integration of the transducer, which is essential for accurate readings and consistent scanning of underwater structure and fish, particularly useful in forward-looking fishing.

Using this adapter kit provides several benefits:

It enables precise scanning of underwater structure and fish by positioning the transducer directly on the trolling motor. Mounting on the motor ensures the transducer moves with it, providing consistent scan coverage. Its rugged construction is designed to withstand vibrations and stresses from trolling motor use, ensuring stable readings. It simplifies installation of the HV-100 transducer in an optimal fishing position.

The mounting bracket is built with a robust construction specifically designed to withstand vibrations and stresses inherent to use on a trolling motor. This design ensures stability and accuracy of the depth sounder readings even in harsh sea or lake conditions.

This adapter kit is specifically compatible with the Raymarine HV-100 HyperVision transducer, whose part number is A80603.

The adapter kit is designed to be mounted on most trolling motors. The supplied hose clamps are suitable for a wide range of motor diameters.

Once the transducer and mount assembly is prepared, proceed as follows to install it on the engine:

Position the assembly under the outboard motor, ensuring the end of the transducer with the temperature sensor points toward the rear of the engine. Install the supplied hose clamps around the outboard motor. Position the transducer on the underside of the motor so that it is horizontal when the engine is running. Tighten the hose clamps until the transducer’s position is fixed and secure.

The transducer must be mounted on the lower side of the outboard motor so that it is horizontal when the motor is running. Ensure that the end of the transducer with the temperature sensor faces the rear of the motor.

Yes, it is crucial to NEVER use hose clamps (jubilee clamps) to secure the fishfinder transducer cable, as this could damage it. Instead, use cable ties (not supplied) to secure the cable along the outboard motor.

Over-tightening the mounting clamps can damage the mounting bracket and/or the outboard motor itself. Tighten the clamps just enough to secure the transducer in place without forcing.

Before finalizing the installation, it is essential to check that the entire assembly (mounting bracket and transducer) is positioned below your outboard motor with sufficient clearance so that the propeller cannot come into contact with the assembly or the transducer cable. Adjustment may be required to ensure this clearance.

Yes, it is important to leave enough slack in the transducer cable when securing it to the trolling motor with cable ties. This slack is necessary to allow the motor to rotate freely without exerting excessive tension on the cable, which could damage it.
