5.4 Storage
When not in use, all the 2050-DSS system components should be packed in their original shipping
containers, in the same way they were originally shipped and stored in a dry area.
5.5 Opening the 2050-DSS Towfish
The procedures below describe how to open
the 2050-DSS Tow Vehicle. Generally, there is
little to no reason to open the vehicle other
than to inspect or send the electronic bottle or
transducer in for service. Should you need to
disassemble the tow vehicle for any reason,
contact E
DGETECH CUSTOMER SERVICE before any
attempts to disassemble the vehicle to
preserve the product’s warranty.
Accessing the tow vehicle’s sonar processor
and sub-bottom transducer involves removing
the tow vehicle’s tow bridle and upper-shell,
removing and installing the bottles, and
installing the upper shell and tow vehicle bridle
when complete. Bridle removal and installation
instructions are found in
THE TOW VEHICLE BRIDLE
REMOVAL, ADJUSTMENT, AND INSTALLATION section
of this manual. Thirteen bolt hardware
assemblies secure the upper vehicle shell. Five
of the assemblies, three forward and two aft,
include a larger washer to protect the vehicle
shell from scratching. The eight bolt assemblies
located port and starboard secure the bridle
mounting rails to the vehicle as well. All
hardware should be removed and retained to
open, service, and seal the vehicle when
complete.
