The mounting location of the Quick Release Bracket will vary
depending on the motor that will be mounted:
1.
For PowerDrive or Terrova motors:
Fully deploy the motor and
position the mount on the bow of the boat to check for proper
clearance. The motor must not encounter any obstructions
as it is lowered into the water or raised into the boat. When
the motor is deployed, there must be a minimum required
distance of 1½" between the Gunwale and the Shaft.
2.
For Ulterra Motors:
Position the mount so the Slot in
the Base Extrusion is positioned beyond the gunwale of the
boat. For proper clearance, the entire Slot must be visible
beyond the gunwale. When the motor is deployed, there must
be a minimum required distance of 1½" between the Gunwale
and the Shaft. The Ulterra motor cannot be deployed before
mounting and connecting to a power source.
3.
For the DeckHand 40:
The Davit must always be mounted
so it overhangs the bow by approximately nine inches. This
leaves room for the anchor to clear the boat and properly
pivot in the Davit. For more information, refer to the
DeckHand 40 owner's manual online at
Mount the bracket using only the four holes that are farthest
outboard. The two holes closest inboard are
not
used to
install the bracket.
4.
For the Pontoon Hand Control Bracket:
Mount the bracket
using only the four holes that are farthest outboard. The two
holes closest inboard are
not
used to install the bracket.
