FOAM FOOT BRACES
Dagger playboats are fitted with foam foot
braces. These are lightweight, simple and allow
you to get a custom fit while maximizing foot
room. Always outfit your boat wearing the gear
you’ll wear on the water.
Use these instructions to help understand
your kayak and its different parts. Not all
kayaks will feature all outfitting shown.
We recommend adding additional foam
padding to bulkhead footrests for comfort
and shock absorption.

BULKHEAD FOOT BRACES
Bulkhead footbraces help to distribute the force
of a frontal impact and are fitted in some of our
whitewater kayaks. To adjust the footbrace:
1
Unscrew and remove the retaining thumb nuts and
move the aluminium runners backwards or forwards
until correct fit is achieved. Always test the fit by
sitting in the kayak. Adjust the footbrace to be
comfortably tight without hindering your exit from
the cockpit.

All bulkheads are also adjustable for width and
height. You should adjust them to the maximum area
as allowed by the internal dimensions of the kayak.
Bulkhead footbraces come with foam blocks for
custom fit and safety. Step-by-step instructions
available at Dagger.com

SLIDELOCK FOOT BRACES
First, sit in an upright position to begin adjusting
the footpegs. There is a black plastic rod
extending from the footpeg to your knee that
adjusts the position. Lift the rod slightly to
release the peg and then either slide the peg
forward or back to find the correct position.
Releasing the rod will lock it in place. With just a
slight amount of foot pressure the peg should be
snug against your foot.

KEEPERS FOOTBRACES:
The adjustment lever is located on the backside of
the footpedal. To adjust, squeeze the lever and slide
the footpeg to the desired location. Release the lever
to lock it in place.
