Accessory Frame System Instruction Manual
Before starting, inflate your kayak so that you can have it ready for
positioning the Accessory Frame and for gluing the Mounting Grommets
into place.
1.
Important: Begin by using your Exacto/Matte knife to cut a small notch
in to each of your 4 Mounting Grommets. This notch will be used to
mark for proper alignment of the grommets when gluing. SEE IMAGE 5.

2. Slide two of the Mounting Grommets onto the main Frame Body and
position them so that they are just past the holes in the frame.
SEE IMAGE 1.
3. Slide one Mounting Grommet onto each of the Detachable Arms and
position them so that they are at the same end as the black pole cap.
SEE IMAGE 2.
4. Once the Mounting Grommets are in place, attach the Frame Arms
to the Frame Body and place the assembled Accessory Frame (with
the Mounting Grommets in place) on a flat surface and rotate the
Mounting Grommets so that the disk portion of each grommet lays
flat and even on the surface.
5. Locate the two Mounting Templates included with these instructions
and place them underneath the grommets, aligning the circular shapes
on the templates with the disk portion of the grommets. Align the front
grommets first (these are the grommets nearest to the push buttons on
the frame assembly), then slide the rear grommets (these are the
grommets on the detachable arms) as needed to align them with the
other set of circles on the templates; this will ensure proper spacing
between the two grommets on each side of the frame.
