Coupler Installation for EZ Dock Attachment
Insert the composite coupler bolt into coupler. Align the index mark on the
head of the bolt so that the splines line up into the notched pockets in the
coupler. Using a hammer to seat the bolt into the coupler, (Figure 7).
Install coupler with seated bolt on the in-water installation tool, (Figure 8).
Align dock sections so coupler pockets are adjacent to each other (Figure 6).
Next, using the in-water installation tool insert the coupler and bolt assembly
into the bottom pocket with the bolt pointing upward, (Figure 6). Pull up on
the in-water installation tool to seat the bottom coupler. (NOTE: The EZ
Dock and EZ Port MAX must be setting level on the water and at the same
elevation for the coupler to properly seat into the bottom pocket. This may
require a counter balance weight toward the entry end of the EZ Port MAX
to offset the weight of the installer who is standing at the seam between the
EZ Port MAX and the EZ Dock). The coupler is fully seated in its pocket
when the indicator hole on the in-water installation tool (Figure 9) is flush with
the top of the dock (you should be able to insert a screwdriver through the
indicator hole). While holding pressure, insert the top coupler into the opposing
pocket by aligning the hole in the top coupler over the rod and pushing the coupler into the pocket, (Figure 9).
Install the coupler nut onto the bolt and tighten until the top of the bolt is 3/8 -1/2” below the top of the nut (do not torque
over 15 ft-lb). Due to the security feature on the coupler nut, the coupler installation tool is required for tightening. The
coupler installation tool is splined on the end to be inserted into the coupler nut and the other end is a 15/16” bolt. This is
inserted into a 15/16” socket with ratchet for tightening (Figure 10).
DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN THE COUPLER NUT! (Do not torque over 15 ft-lb)
