2.   Raider Installation

___________________________________________________

 

a. Handling Engine 

 



The Raider was designed to be carried by a grab rail unit.  This 

allows the outboard to be moved through submarine hatches and  
small areas.  The grab rail will protect engine from getting damaged.  Be  
aware of the sharp propeller when lifting through submarine hatches. 

 

 
To move engine around shop area, use the Raider outboard stand, supplied 
with the delivered engines, that supports engine by transom mount. 

 

 

 
 

 

 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 

 

b. Installation of single Engine 

 

The Raider has been designed to be released from submarines and air dropped.   This in-
stallation will discuss a typical installation 

 no special operations installation. 

Position the outboard engine at the exact center of the stern and mount it against the Rub-
ber Inflatable Boat pad or plate.  It is important to keep it centered as much as possible, 
Tighten clamp screws by hand DO NOT use tools to tighten clamp screws.  Retighten en-
gine clamps after 15 minutes of operation. 
 
 

WARNING 

Most Rubber Inflatable Boats are rated and certified in terms of 
their maximum horsepower on the transom.  This information is 

shown on the boat’s certificat

ion plate.  Do not equip your RIB with 

an outboard that exceeds this limit. 
 
Do not operate the engine until it has been securely mounted on 
the boat in accordance with the instructions.  Attach safety wire to 
boat to avoid losing the motor overboard.
