Bracket. Press the Latch Lever on the Tilt Bracket
to return it to the closed position.
NOTICE:
We recommend a second person to help
with this step of the installation.
l. Take the Talon and notice that there is an Assembly
Track located on both sides of the Talon.
m. Carefully lift the Talon into the Mounting Bracket
and align the Mounting Straps with the Assembly
Track. Slide the Guard Washers to the inside wall
of the Mounting Bracket, so that they sit between it
and the Talon Assembly. Slide the Talon down the
Assembly Tracks until it comes in contact with the
Vertical Stop Bolt.
NOTICE:
If the Talon was previously installed, the
Water Deflection Shield may need to be removed
and reinstalled after the Talon is secure. Refer to the

Vertical Stop Bolt up or down in the Mounting
Bracket so that the bottom of the Talon is not less

boat, or the waterline of the boat. Once in place,
temporarily tighten the Vertical Stop Bolt.
o. Double check the placement of the Talon and make
sure it meets all of the mounting considerations.
Make any adjustments as necessary. When the
position of the Talon is acceptable, secure the four
Hex Head Cap Screws and Nylock Nuts holding the
Mounting Straps in place with a 9/16" Box End or
Socket Wrench. Use a torque wrench to tighten to a
recommended torque of 20 to 30 ft-lbs. Tighten the
Vertical Stop Bolt.
NOTICE:
Additional adjustments may need to be
made to the mount after a trial run with the boat on
the water. Periodically re-tighten the four nuts and
screws to 20 to 30 ft-
