ASSEMBLY OF MOTOR TO MOUNT:
1. Place the mount on an elevated surface such as a work-
bench or tailgate of pickup.
2. Remove the 5/16” Allen screw and lock washer from the
mount using a ⁄” Allen wrench. (See picture)
3. Align the key ways on the inside of the bowguard with
the ends links on the mount. Lower the motor assembly
straight down until seated.
4. Install the 5/16” Allen screw / lock washer and tighten to
10-12 ft/lbs.
5. Stow the motor into the flat position by pulling the rope/
handle to disengage the latch bar, allowing the motor to
fold into the flat position.
6. Once in the stowed or flat position, the gas spring pin
can be installed. Follow the steps below to install the
gas spring pin:
• Locate the upper gas spring pin in bag assembly
• Align the end of the gas spring with the holes in the
outer arm
• Install pin and Phillips flat head screws
• Tighten screws until the heads are flush with the
outer arm
NOTE:
Screws have a pre-applied thread locker, DO
NOT apply additional thread locker to screws as that
may prevent future removal.
7. Motor / mount can now be installed onto the boat.
Proceed to next page for mounting instructions.
ATTENTION:
The 5/16” Allen screw must be tight
when installed and periodically tightened to 10-12 ft/lbs
(Step 4), which will allow the motor to be stowed prop-
erly. Tighten the Allen screw when the mount is in the
deployed position.
