The FL-8
®
SE is today’s renement of the famous original Vexilar FL-8. This model was instrumental in the modern ice shing transformation.
With the advent of reliable light-weight power ice augers, highly mobile quick-setup shelters and the infamous “Vexilar” to let you see your bait
as well as the sh, the sport made a huge leap forward in the early 1990s, in both eectiveness and popularity. Gone were the days of sitting on a
bucket and waiting for the elusive bite. Your new FL-8
®
SE is truly a part of this history.

SE Range Setting
The FL-8
®
SE has six depth ranges in two groups, Shallow and Deep. The shallow
range group includes Zero to 20’, 40’, and 80’. The deep range group includes
Zero to 30’, 60’, and 120’. To interpret depth, you multiply the displayed reading
by the range multiplier.
The FL-8

SE comes in only the Genz Pack conguration.
Shallow Range Group
Look at the outer scale and the
left-hand multipliers in white
Deep Range Group

right-hand multipliers in yellow
Gain Control
Turn the Gain Control clockwise to increase the gain. Keep the gain
as low as possible. The Gain Control also serves as the ON/OFF
switch for the Interference Rejection feature by pushing in on the
control. You will see the red light go o.
Depth Scales
Shallow Range Group
• S-1: Zero to 20 feet. Read the outer white scale directly.
S-2: Zero to 40 feet. Read the outer white scale and double the reading.
• S-4 : Zero to 80 feet. Read the outer white scale and multiply by 4.
Deep Range Group
• D-1 = Zero to 30 feet. Read the inner yellow scale directly.
• D-2 = Zero to 60 feet. Read the inner yellow scale and double it.
• D-4 = Zero to 120 feet. Read the inner yellow scale and multiply by 4.
Interference Rejection
Interference Rejection comes on automatically when you power up
the asher. If interference from another sounder is present on the
display, push the Rejection button repeatedly until it goes away or is
reduced as much as possible. There are 10 settings to cycle
through.
