STEP 4-
Grasp K1 with zipper facing up and insert eyebolt on left side
of seatback into hinge and align with hole B. Secure eyebolt to hinge
with clevis pin and split ring. Repeat procedure with K2, securing hinge to
eyebolt on right side of seatback with clevis pin and split ring.
STEP 5-
Seated between apron rods J1 and J2 and with Velcro
separated, pull webbing sleeves back along each rod enough to expose the
ends. Grasp exposed rods near ends, pull the rods towards you, and insert
J2 into the J1 connecting ferrule as far as it will go.
STEP 6-
Remain seated. Reach back to the hinge on each side of the
seatback. Wrap your fingers around the webbing sleeve next to each hinge.
Slide your hands along the webbing, gently stretching the webbing back over
the rods. Locate the connecting hook on K1 and the D ring on K2. Insert
hook into D ring. This is a tight fit. Pull mesh over lap and attach all Velcro
edges. If edges do not line up satisfactorily, separate edges and remove hook from D ring. Slide hook down it’s
attachment cords as far as possible. Untie stop knots in cords and retie further down. This shortens the hook connector
lead. Reconnect the hook onto the D ring. Pull mesh back into position and test Velcro alignment. When satisfactory,
separate Velcro edges, flip entire assembly over the head (much like a child’s highchair), and exit the Float Cat.
STEP 7-
Locate L, P, and Q. Using a large flat head screwdriver, spread the open end of clip (Q) approximately 1/4”
further open. Locate grommet near edge of one storage bag. Install clip over edge, aligning hole in clip over grommet
and snapping into place. Repeat for other side.
STEP 8-
Insert tapped end of apron support post up through webbing tab on side of storage bag. Place washer over
exposed screw threads and thread support post onto screw. Align opening in C clamp (on bottom of support post)
parallel with crossbar and tighten screw with screwdriver. Snap C clamps onto crossbars where they are exposed in
the troughs on top of pontoons.
STEP 9-
Apron support posts can be easily released by angling to the left or right and pulling up.
