Adjust viewing angle: use one hand to press and release the spring-
loaded ratchets while you move the unit with the other hand. An op-
tional GBSA-3 swivel base is shown with the quick release bracket.
Portable Sonar Installation
Like many Lowrance products, the M56 sonar is capable of portable
operation. It uses the optional PPP-12 portable power pack.
The power pack and portable transducers expand the uses for your so-
nar. You can use your M56 sonar unit on your boat or take it to the
dock, on a float tube, on an ice fishing trip or use it as a second sonar in
a friend's boat. (An alternative to the PPP-12 is the PPP-15 portable
power pack, which was designed especially for ice fishing. It includes a
rechargeable gel cell battery and a transducer designed for stationary
use. The entire rig is contained in a carry bag that fits inside a five-
gallon plastic bucket.)
The PPP-12 package includes the power pack, battery adapter and a port-
able transducer. The transducer can be stored inside the power pack. The
PPP-12 requires eight AA alkaline batteries. Batteries are not included.
To use a portable power pack, you simply install the batteries and then
attach the sonar unit to the power pack's bracket. Plug in the
power/transducer cable and you're ready to fish.
The PPP-12 has a quick-release mounting bracket built into the case.
Installing the Batteries
Release the latch on the front of the power pack case. Open the com-
partment and install eight AA batteries into the adapter. For the long-
est life, we recommend you use alkaline batteries.
