Zestawy wymiany sondy, Do silnika elektrycznego Garmin Force®; stożek ochronny nie jest dołączony

This kit is specifically designed for the maintenance or repair of the integrated detection system of Garmin Force® electric motors. It allows replacing the sealing and fastening components around the existing transducer, thus ensuring the structural integrity and watertightness of the motor.

The kit includes several essential components for repair and sealing:

A compression wrenchCompression seals suitable for various transducer pin configurations (no pin, 8-pin, and 12-pin)A set of spare O-rings (including 25 mm, 78 mm, and 36 mm)New stainless steel screwsA new neoprene padA packet of greaseFour bolts with washers and 4.75 mm O-rings

No, the transducer itself is not included in this kit. This kit provides the components needed to replace the sealing and mounting elements around your existing transducer.

No, the engine protection cone is not included in this replacement kit.

The kit includes several spare O-rings, including:

A 25 mm (1 inch) O-ring for the recessed nut. A large 78 mm (3 inch) O-ring for the propeller shaft base. A 36 mm (1 7/16 inch) O-ring for the top of the propeller motor. 4.75 mm (3/16 inch) O-rings for the four mounting bolts.

Yes, the kit includes new stainless steel screws, as well as other fasteners such as bolts, washers, and O-rings, which are essential for restoring the watertight integrity and secure mounting of the transducer.

This replacement transducer kit is exclusively compatible with the Garmin Force® electric motor.

No, this kit is not compatible with Garmin Force® Kraken motors. These require a different replacement kit due to their specific design features.

No, this kit is specifically designed and tested for the Garmin Force® electric motor and must not be used with other brands or models of motors.

For installation, you will need the following tools:

Phillips screwdriver #2 and #3
3 mm and 4 mm hex bits or Allen keys (a 4 mm ball-end hex bit is highly recommended)
Torque wrench
Medium-strength thread locking compound (e.g., LOCTITE 243™)
Canned air or an air compressor

Yes, to ensure optimal performance and avoid potential damage to the device or your vessel, installation by a qualified marine technician is recommended.

Yes, it is imperative to always disconnect the engine from the battery before handling or working on the propeller, the propeller drive motor, electrical connections, or electronic housings to prevent serious injury or death. Also be aware of the risk of entrapment or crushing by moving parts when stowing or deploying the engine.

Yes, applying a medium-strength thread-locking compound, such as LOCTITE 243™, is required on the threaded holes of the four mounting points of the propeller drive motor. This ensures a watertight connection and prevents water ingress and motor damage.

Yes, it is recommended to apply grease (provided in the kit) on the new O-rings, including the large 78 mm O-ring and the 36 mm O-ring, as well as on the 4.75 mm O-rings of the bolts, to facilitate installation and ensure proper sealing. Avoid applying grease on the threads of the bolts.

When pulling cables, it is crucial to pull on the cable itself and not on the connectors. The data cable connector is fragile and could break if pulled. Ensure that both power and data cables are straight and aligned so they pass smoothly through the shaft.

Yes, it is recommended to use canned compressed air or an air compressor to blow out any dirt or debris from the four threaded holes located on top of the propeller drive motor before applying thread-locking compound and inserting the new screws.

A torque wrench is a necessary tool for installation. It allows you to tighten fasteners to the specified torque, which is crucial to ensure proper sealing and component safety, preventing either over-tightening or under-tightening that could cause damage or leaks.

The kit is designed for replacing the depth sounder and the provided technical instructions (such as the OCR document) detail the steps to remove the existing transducer and install the new one. It is recommended to read these instructions fully before starting the service.

To ensure optimal waterproofing, it is essential to use all the new parts supplied in the kit (O-rings, screws, neoprene pad), apply thread-locking compound where specified, grease the O-rings, and tighten the screws to the recommended torque using a torque wrench. Failure to follow these steps may result in water ingress.
