OPTION 3 - ( ALLOY QUICK RELEASE BRACKET )
ATTACHING THE MOTOR TO YOUR BOAT USING
THE OPTIONAL ALLOY QUICK RELEASE BRACKET
Before beginning the process of attaching the motor to your boat please ensure
the entire Watersnake mount assembly, including the optional
quick-release plate, must be mounted in a level, horizontal position as close
to the boat’s centreline as possible. The Watersnake motor and quick-release
plate do not necessarily need to face directly forward. On slightly curved decks,
spacer washers or blocks must be used to ensure level mounting of the motor
base and/or lower quick-release plate. In some cases it may be necessary to
fabricate a mounting plinth from alloy or fibreglass to provide a level location.
If you are unsure please consult your marine technician.
INSTALLATION
(SEE PAGE 16 FOR DIAGRAM)
The bracket consists of two plates, top and bottom. Use the six screws (no.3)
and washers (no.5) provided to attach the top plate (no.1) to the bottom of
your bow mount motor and secure with locknuts (no.4). Use the screws (no.7)
provided to fix the bottom plate to the bow section of your boat.
PLEASE NOTE:
If you choose to attach the Quick Release Top Plate to the motor Mounting
Plate using the threaded holes in the motor Mounting Plate you will not
require the nuts for the bolts. It is recommended to use a threadlocker on the
bolts to stop the bolts from loosening over time. See page 15.
ATTACHING THE MOTOR TO YOUR BOAT
Rotate the latch (no.8) on the top plate counter clockwise until it stops.
Place the top plate (no.1) onto bottom plate (no.6) the two plates will fit into
one another. Turn the latch (no.8) clockwise until tight to lock the two plates in
place. Seat the latch (no.8) over the top of the shackle (no.9). A padlock can be
passed through the shackle (no.9) to secure your motor.
REMOVING THE MOTOR FROM YOUR BOAT
