Using the Echonautics BT70H600-18 transducer is quite straightforward. First, make sure your vessel's hull deadrise is between 16° and 24°, as this transducer is designed for that range. Then, mount it using the thru - hull style with a 2.38 - inch hole diameter. Connect the 27 - foot cable properly to your system. It can measure both depth and temperature for you. When using it, avoid hitting it against hard objects as it may damage the bronze material. As for maintenance, clean the transducer regularly with a soft cloth. Check the cable for any signs of wear and tear. Also, keep an eye on the urethane acoustic window to ensure it's in good condition. With proper use and care, this transducer will serve you well for a long time.
