1. Prepare the canvas for installation by
cleaning it.
2. Use an old filet knife and heat it up with a
torch to where it's almost red-hot. Use the
hot filet knife to cut and sear the canvas in
order to keep it from unraveling.
3. Find each pre-drilled hole and mark it with a
magic marker to make it easy to find.
4. Use an old screwdriver and heat it up with a
torch as done previously with the filet knife.
5. Use the hot screwdriver to poke a hole
through the canvas for the bolts.
6. Go around the main opening and each pre-
drilled hole with clear marine-grade sealant
before you set the base.
7. Set the base through the hole and assure the
bolt holes are aligned.
8. Using the Head Cap Bolt, place the stainless-
steel washer first, and then follow it with the
nylon washer.
9. Use the Allen wrench to screw the hardware
into the base.
10. Wipe the extra marine-grade sealant off the
canvas.
CANVAS TOP
ATTENTION:
Since the canvas top will have pre-drilled holes,
there is no need to use the included backing
plate, spacers, bottom washers and the hex nut.

IMPORTANT:
To mount the GS-312/314 Center
Rigger Mount to a canvas top frame, TACO
recommends ensuring the necessary extrusion
plate is of high-quality material and installed
by a reputable welder who can verify the top
size and structure can support the mount.
