INSTALLATION
Installing the Talon
1
ITEM(S) NEEDED
a. Review the Mounting Considerations to determine
if it is acceptable to complete a direct mount of the
Talon Mounting Bracket. If acceptable, position the
Mounting Bracket (Item #D) at the selected location
and mark the Mounting Holes with a pencil or similar
marking tool. Any of the eight Mounting Holes can
be used with at least one bolt in each corner of the
bracket, or 2 on each side.
b. Double check that the mounting location is clear to
drill holes and then use a Drill with a 5/16" Drill Bit
to drill through the Transom/Stern of the boat on the
marked locations.
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.

c. Place a 1/8" bead of Marine Grade Sealant on the
Transom of the boat around the drilled holes.
d. Place the Marine Grade Sealant on the face of the
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 Mounting Bracket in the desired
orientation with the holes that were drilled in the
Transom/Stern.
