PROBE INSTALLATION (cont.)
Installing Probe on the Downrigger cable
To prevent losing the probe overboard it is recommended that the safety lanyard clasp be
installed fi rst. Open the clasp hook and place around the downrigger wire. Next loosen the
thumb screw at the front end of the probe assembly so the cap slides back enough to slip
the uncoated portions of the cable under the cover. Adjust the location of the probe on the
downrigger line and tighten the thumb screw. There is no need to over tighten, the fi t should
be hand tight. The last step is to install the safety lanyard stop bolt. Remove the nylon wing
nut and washer from the assembly. Slide the cable into the split portion of the bolt. Place
Nylon washer and Nylon wing nut back onto assembly and tighten. The lanyard stop should
be placed on the cable between the probe and the lanyard clasp.
