ASSEMBLY OF MOTOR TO MOUNT
MOUNTING CONSIDERATIONS
It is recommended that the motor be mounted as close to the keel or centerline of
the boat as possible. Make sure the area under the mounting location is clear to drill
holes and install nuts and washers. Make sure the motor rest is positioned far enough
beyond the edge of the boat. The motor must not encounter any obstructions as it is
lowered into the water or raised into the boat when stowed and deployed. Consider
a quick release or adapter bracket with the installation of your motor. To view a list of

INSTALLATION
Assembly of Motor to Mount
1
a. Place the Mount on an elevated, level surface
such as a workbench or the tailgate of a pickup.
The Mount, as removed from the box, should be
in the deployed position.
b. Remove the 5/16" Allen Screw and Lock Washer
from the Mount using the 1/4" Allen Wrench. The
5/16" Allen Screw is located on the opposite

closes when the mount is stowed and deployed.

c. Align the Keyways on the inside of the Steering
Module with the End Links on the Mount. Do this
by positioning the Steering Module above the
End Links on the Mount.
d. Lower the Motor Assembly straight down until
the Steering Module is seated.
WARNING

a pinch point between the Steering Module and Mount.
