3. Raptor to Hull Clearance - The bottom edge of the Raptor should
never be less than 4” above the hull directly below the Raptor to
prevent spray and drag conditions.
4. Raptor to Engine Clearance -
When selecting a mounting location,
make sure that no interference exists between the Raptor and
your engine during normal operation. Once you have selected your
mounting location, trim the engine all the way up and all the way
down, and steer the engine fully to the left and right to confirm
proper engine clearance. Ensure there is a minimum of two to three
inches of clearance from any point on the Raptor in all states of
stow and deploy.
5. Outboard Slotted Mounting Holes - When mounted on either the
Port or Starboard side, the bracket should always be oriented to
face away from the engine, with the slotted holes facing away from
the transom.
NOTICE:
To prevent seizing of the stainless steel
hardware, do not use high speed installation tools.
Wetting the screws or applying an anti-seize may help
prevent seizing.

Installing the Direct Mount Angle Bracket
a. Review the Mounting Considerations to determine
if it is acceptable to complete a direct mount of the
Raptor Direct Mount Angle Bracket. If acceptable,
position the Direct Mount Angle Bracket (Item
#2) at the selected location. Make sure that the
Slotted Mounting Holes are positioned away from
the Transom and facing Outboard. With the bracket
level and in place, mark all four Mounting Holes
with an awl or similar marking tool.
