The Garmin large protection cone (part number 010-12832-21) is an accessory designed specifically for electric motors. It is intended for the integration and protection of Garmin GT transducers, replacing the standard part of your engine.

The primary role of this protection cone is to protect the depth sounder installed on the electric motor. It shields the transducer from impacts and debris encountered in a marine environment, ensuring the integrity of the sounder and the reliability of the detection data.

The main advantages of this cone include:

Targeted protection of the depth sounder against impacts and debris.
Improved hydrodynamics thanks to its smooth profile, reducing drag in the water.
Durable construction designed to withstand marine environmental stresses.
Discreet black finish that gives the engine an original appearance.

Yes, the design of this cone incorporates a smooth hydrodynamic profile which is crucial for reducing drag in the water. This can potentially have a positive impact on the energy consumption and handling of your electric motor.

This large Garmin protection cone is black in color. Its finish is designed to be discreet and blend seamlessly with the original aesthetics of the electric motor.

Yes, this large protective cone is a Garmin accessory, identified by SKU 010-12832-21.

Yes, its construction is durable and specifically designed to withstand the stresses and demanding conditions of the marine environment, ensuring a long service life and reliable protection.

No, the Garmin large protection cone (010-12832-21) is a separately sold accessory. It is designed to be compatible with existing or separately purchased Garmin GT transducers, such as the GT56.

This protection cone is compatible with a range of Garmin transducers, specifically including the following models:

GT56 GT22 GT24 GT52 GT54

No, this cone is compatible with a specific selection of Garmin GT sounders, including the GT56, GT22, GT24, GT52, and GT54. It is recommended to check the compatibility list to ensure it suits your GT sounder model.

This cone is an essential accessory for electric motors, specifically designed for integrating Garmin GT transducers. The detailed installation documentation provided by Garmin concerns notably the Force Kraken electric motor.

No, this large protective cone is designed specifically for the integration and protection of Garmin GT series transducers. It is not compatible with transducers from other brands.

Yes, this protective cone is compatible with the Garmin GT56 transducer. The GT56 designation generally includes the UHD (Ultra High-Definition) version, which is the standard model.

Yes, the technical documentation provided by Garmin for replacing the transducer, which involves installing this cone, is specifically addressed to the Force Kraken electric motor. Therefore, it is designed to be compatible with this type of motor.

Installing this protection cone, which is part of the process to replace a depth sounder on an electric motor, requires specific tools and a certain level of skill. Garmin recommends installation by a qualified marine technician to ensure optimal performance and avoid any damage.

For installing this cone when replacing a transducer, you will need several tools, including:

A Phillips screwdriver size #2Hex wrenches or sockets of 2.5, 3, 4, 5, and 6 mmMedium-strength thread locker (e.g., LOCTITE 243™)Compressed air or an air compressorDiagonal cutting pliersHose clampsA spanner wrench (usually included in the transducer replacement kit)Marine grease (usually included in the transducer replacement kit)

Yes, it is mandatory to always disconnect the electric motor from the battery before performing any service or installation work. Failure to comply with this instruction may result in electric shock or motor damage.

The protective cone itself is generally not supplied with screws and mounting hardware. However, the depth sounder replacement instructions, which involve this cone, state that new screws, washers, and O-rings are provided in the depth sounder replacement kit. It is recommended to check the contents of your depth sounder replacement kit or obtain the necessary hardware.

Yes, it is essential to apply a medium-strength thread-locking compound, such as LOCTITE 243™, to the threads of the six threaded holes located on top of the propulsion motor. This ensures a secure connection between the shaft base and the motor, and prevents water ingress that could damage the motor.

After aligning and hand-tightening the six bolts, use a torque wrench to tighten them to 4 N-m (35 lbf-in).
