8. Attach the seat frame to the pontoon frames.
Insert the seat platform tubes onto the pontoon frame posts with the seat
facing the front. The front of the pontoon frames are the ends labeled
"L" (left) and "R" (right). (You may need to LIGHTLY tap the frames with a
rubber mallet to fit).
Align the holes and secure with four clevis pins.
You MUST lock the security retainers on all four clevis pins to insure that
the frame stays together.
Insert clevis pins on the frame side not in between the bladder and
frame to avoid abrasion of the pontoon.
9. Thread the anchor bag cord.
The anchor bag can be attached for
either right or left hand operation. Start
by feeding the cord into the front anchor
cord pulley located on the side of either
pontoon frame. Continue by threading
the cord through the cord guides and
under all frame tubes.
Next, insert the cord through
the rear cord tube guide [1] on the rear
platform frame. Finish by threading the
cord through the pulley mounted on the
rear platform frame and attaching the
cord to the anchor bag.
10. Attach the anchor system.
The anchor system consists of a mesh weight bag and a length
of cord threaded through the frame (step 9).
The bag is filled with rocks or metal weights (not included).
Placing 6 to 8 lbs. (2.7 to 3.6 kg) will keep you anchored in a
light breeze but the weight needed will vary depending on your
weight, your cargo weight, currents and wind.
There are built-in cleats on the inside of each pontoon frame
behind the front anchor cord pulley. Thread the cord around
the front anchor cord pulley and back to the cleat. Thread the
cord in the front and out the back of each cleat. To cleat the cord
while anchoring, simply pull the cord into the jaws of the cleat. Pull up and away from the cleat jaws to release.
If the anchor cord pulleys ever loosen, use the included 4mm allen wrench to tighten.
11. Attach the rear platform frame.
In order to attach the rear platform frame you must
first partially attach the wire cargo deck. Start by
sliding the bent wire tabs into the slots welded on to
the rear of each pontoon frame.
Next, push the rear platform frame tubes into the
open tubes on the rear of each pontoon frame. Make
sure to insert the wire guides on the rear of the wire
cargo deck into the corresponding holes on the rear
platform frame as you push the tubes together. Also
make sure not to pinch the threaded anchor cord.
Attach the rear corners with two clevis pins. These secure the wire cargo deck and the rear platform frame to the pontoon
frames. Be sure to insert each pin through the cargo deck, the rear platform frame and through the pontoon frames. Lock
both clevis pins.
