a. Take the Telescopic Boom (Assembly #D or
Assembly #E) and cut the Cable Tie holding the
three tubes of the boom together with a wire
cutter or cutting tool. Remove the cut Cable
Tie and loosen the Boom Clamps by turning
them counterclockwise at the narrow end of the
Telescopic Boom.
b. The Outer Tube that makes up the wider end of the
Telescopic Boom has 3 holes used for mounting
it to the Downrigger Assembly. The tubes in the
Telescopic Boom need to be extended so that the
holes used to mount the boom to the downrigger are
unobstructed and are free to pass a bolt through.
c. With the Clamps on the Telescopic Boom loosened,
the tubes of the boom can slide apart. Slide the
Center Tube about 2 inches out from the original
position and then re-tighten the Boom Clamp
towards the narrower end of the boom turning
clockwise. Slide the Middle Tube about 2 inches
out from its original position and tighten the second
clamp. Check the opposite end of the boom to see
if all three holes on the Outer Tube are clear to
pass mounting hardware. If not, re-adjust the Boom
Clamps and tubes to expose the mounting holes.
Secure the clamps by turning them clockwise so
that the tubes do not slide, then set aside.
d. Take the Bolt Hook (Item #14) and place the
Stainless Steel Hex Nut (Item #12) on it. Turn the
Hex Nut far onto the Bolt Hook, nearly to the end
of the threads. Set the Bolt Hook Assembly aside.
