The mounting location of the Quick Release Bracket will vary
depending on the motor that will be mounted:
1. For PowerDrive or Terrova motors: Fully deploy the motor and
position the bracket on the bow of your boat to check for proper
clearance. The motor must not encounter any obstructions as it
is lowered into the water or raised into the boat.
For Ulterra Motors: Position the bracket so the notch in

the base is positioned beyond the Gunwale of the boat.
For proper clearance, the entire notch must be visible
beyond the Gunwale. The Ulterra motor cannot be deployed
before mounting and connecting to a power source. Ulterra
installation will use hardware that was included with the
Ulterra motor. The hardware needed will be six Stainless
Steel Screws (Part #2203431) and six Clipped Washers (Part
#2201725) from the Ulterra Bag Assembly (Part #2994917).
3. For the DeckHand 40 and Pontoon Hand Control Bracket:
Mount the bracket using only the four holes that are farthest
outboard. The two holes closest inboard are not used to install
the bracket.
It is recommended that the motor be mounted as close to the
centerline of the boat as possible. The motor must not encounter
any obstructions as it is lowered into the water or raised into the
boat when stowed and deployed. Make sure the motor rest is
positioned far enough beyond the edge of the boat. Make sure the
area under the mounting location is flat and clear to drill holes and
install nuts and washers.
