INSTALLING THE RAPTOR

c. Double check that the mounting location is clear to
drill holes and then use a Drill with a 7/16" Drill Bit
to drill through the Transom/Stern of the boat on the
marked locations.
NOTICE:
When drilling holes into fiberglass, it
is helpful to first cover the surface with masking
tape. This will help keep the boat surface
unmarked and help with cleanup. Cover the surface
and then mark the location to drill. Once the
holes are drilled, remove the masking tape before
continuing installation.

d. Place a 1/8" bead of Marine Grade Sealant on the
Transom of the boat around the drilled holes.
e. Place the Marine Grade Sealant around the Mounting
Holes on the face of the Built-in Mounting Bracket
that will contact the boat Transom/Stern when
mounted. Keep the sealant approximately centered
between the outside edge of the Mounting Bracket
and the Mounting Holes. Once the sealant is in
place, align the Built-in Mounting Bracket in the
desired orientation with the holes that were drilled
in the Transom/Stern. Make sure that the Hydraulic
Hoses are out of the way to install hardware.
CAUTION
Do not use the Built-in Mounting Bracket or Raptor as a
step to enter the boat. The bracket will be slippery when
wet and is not designed to support people. Using this
product as a step may result in injury.

NOTICE:
When drilling the marked holes, make sure that
the drill bit is perpendicular to the Transom/Stern of the
boat and that the holes are being drilled straight. Not
drilling the holes straight will give the mounting hardware
a poor fit.
