The deck box is not designed to withstand water. Use cau-
tion when using on decks in wet conditions.
Avoid using ferro-magnetic materials in the mounting
fixtures or near the Workhorse. Ferro-magnetic materials
affect the compass.

Figure 9 illustrates how to connect the WorkHorse Mariner cables on your

the WorkHorse’s transducer head into during testing (two to three inches of
water is sufficient). Testing the WorkHorse out of water may cause some
tests to fail but causes no harm to the WorkHorse.
