TERMINATING ThE DOWNRIGGER LINE
TERMINATING ThE DOWNRIGGER LINE
With the body of the Cannon downrigger installed, the Line on the
Spool can be terminated. The downrigger comes standard with
stainless steel Line held in place on the Spool with a Rubber Band.
During the termination, it is very important to keep tension on the
Line to keep it wound tightly around the Spool. To keep tension
on the Spool, the Clutch Knob is first installed and then the Line
is routed and terminated. Check to determine that the Clutch
Knob was installed by referring to the "Installing the Clutch Knob"
section of these instructions. If installed, complete the terminating
procedure by following these steps:
a. Locate the Rubber Band on the Line. The Rubber
Band is securing both the end of the Line tight
and holding the Line around the Spool. Keep the
Rubber Band secured to the end of the Line, but
loosen it from the Spool so that tension can be
kept on the Line end by pulling on the Rubber
Band. Once it is loose from the Spool, keep
tension on the end of the Line by holding the
Rubber Band tight.
b. The Line is wound around the Spool in a
counterclockwise direction. Work with the end of
the Line the Rubber Band is attached to, so that
the end of the Line comes out of the downrigger
on the bottom side of the Spool below the
Telescopic Boom.
c. Pull the Line tight by keeping it secure with
the Rubber Band. Slide it through the Bolt
Hook Assembly.
