a. Align the Maxxum/RT Maxxum Bow-mount with the
mounting holes of the Outer Plate (Item #4).
b. Place the Stabilizer Strap (if included with your motor)
into the Relief Cut on the Outer Plate. Orientate the
buckle to the desired side. The Relief Cut should face
farthest inboard on the final installation.
c. The placement of the buckle on the Stabilizer
Strap is based on personal preference and can be
placed either inboard or outboard. The hook and
loop on the fastener should be face down for the
Stabilizer Strap to function. Test the placement of
the Stabilizer Strap to be sure it can hold the Mount
as placed.
