[. . . ] fit comfortably inside a typical 5-gallon plastic bucket. This power pack can also use an optional battery adapter that holds eight "D" size batteries.

Most complaints about portable units result from batteries that have not been charged. If you are using the optional D dry cell battery adapter, be sure you use fresh batteries. The efficiency of dry cell batteries drops in cold weather. It is a good idea to have the batteries and the sonar unit nice and warm before leaving home. (If you are using disposable D batteries, always remove them from the power pack when storing the unit because dead batteries can leak, corroding the contacts of the battery adapter. ) If the batteries do lose their charge, you can sometimes restore them by warming them up. A better option is to replace them with batteries that have been kept warm. WARNING: Never heat batteries over an open flame or direct hot air onto them. Slip the washer onto the transducer rod, followed by the transducer and the wing nut. Assembled transducer, attached to the mounting rod. 2. The wing nut should be tightened enough to hold the transducer on the rod, but it should be loose enough to allow the transducer to swing freely. This allows the transducer to self-position itself straight down, for ideal ice fishing performance. Grasp the assembled transducer and rod in one hand and thread the swing arm's socket end onto the rod. 6 Insert mounting rod through swing arm's socket, as shown. 4. Snap the red rubber adjustment lock onto the rod and screw it into the swing arm's threaded socket. As the lock is screwed in, it tightens on the mounting rod, holding it in place.
