14.  The front opening or height of the blind may be adjusted by changing the position of 
the pin in the hinge bracket.  There are three holes to adjust the blind from low to high.

15.  To lock the blind in one position so it cannot be flipped open first determine the 
proper height for your situation. Next drill a hole through the main support pole so the 
pin will fit through it.  The pole should be lined up with one of the three holes in the 
hinge bracket when the hole is drilled.

Tips:
- Use mud to reduce any shine of the fabric.  A light mist of brown camo paint will work 
as well.  Most of the outfitters and guides routinely use these methods.
- Utilize the vegetation straps to make the boat nearly invisible to the birds.
- Do not store the blind wet.  Allow it to dry out before storing.

Adjust blind height 
by moving pin. 

Line pole up with one of 
the bracket holes and 
drill through.
