MOUNT INSTALLATION
TOOLS AND RESOURCES REQUIRED:
• #3 Phillips Screw Driver
• Drill
• 9/32” Drill Bit
• 7/16” Box End Wrench
• A second person to help with the installation
1. Remove the four sideplate screws. Remove the right sideplate and swing the left sideplate out and away from the base
extrusion.
2. Place the motor on the bow of the boat in the deployed position.
a. We recommend that the motor be mounted as close to the centerline of the boat as possible.
b. Make sure that the area under the mounting location is clear and unobstructed
for drilling and accessible for you to attach nuts and washers.
c. Make sure the mount is positioned so that the shaft is out beyond the rub rail of the boat by 1-½”. The lower unit, as it is
lowered into the water or raised into the boat, must not encounter any obstructions.
CAUTION: Make sure the motor is mounted on a level surface and is not connected to
a power source. Use the rubber washers to create a level surface if necessary.
3. Once in position, mark four of the twelve holes (two on each side) provided in the bow mount base for drilling. If possible, use
the four holes that are farthest apart. Drill through the marked holes using the 9/32” drill bit.
4. Mount the plate to the bow using the provided bolts, nuts, and washers.
5. Replace the sideplates and sideplate screws.
