a. Disconnect the Talon from power before beginning
the installation.
b. Remove the Talon from the Mounting Bracket by
loosening the four Nylock Nuts that hold the Talon in
place. Do not remove the nuts, only loosen them.
g. Align the Setback Bracket with the mounting holes
in the Transom. Depending on the holes that were
originally used to mount the Talon Mounting Bracket,
new holes may need to be drilled in the Setback
Bracket.
h. Place a 1/8” bead of Marine Grade Sealant (not
included) on the Transom of the boat around the
mounting holes where the hardware and Mounting
Bracket were just removed.
i.
Place the Marine Grade Sealant on the face of the
Setback Bracket that will contact the boat Transom
when mounted. Keep the sealant approximately
centered between the outside edge of the Setback
Bracket and the Mounting Holes. Once the sealant
is in place, align the Setback Bracket in the desired
orientation with the existing Mounting Holes that were
drilled in the Transom.

NOTICE:
It may be necessary to have a second
person hold the Talon while the Nylock Nuts are
being loosened.
c. Lift the Talon out of the Mounting Bracket and set
it aside, making sure there is enough slack in the
Power Cord to do so. If routed through the Transom,
the Power Cord does not have to be pulled through
the Transom to complete the installation.
d. Using a 1/2” Box End or Socket Wrench, remove the
four Nylock Nuts and Fender Washers on the inside of
the Transom that hold the Mounting Bolts in place.
e. Remove the four 5/16” x 3-1/2” Mounting Bolts that
attach the Mounting Bracket to the Transom. These
same Bolts will be used to attach the 6” Setback
Bracket to the transom.
f.
Retain the Nylock Nuts, Fender Washers, Flat
Washers and Mounting Bolts to attach the 6”
Setback Bracket to the Transom.
