MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
Refer to Fig. 1
Measure the distance on your outboard motor between the
cavitation plate and the upper inside edge of the mounting
clamp. Subtract 2" from this length. Then add the total travel
distance of your model outboard motor bracket from the table
below to the distance measured on your motor.
Refer to Fig. 2
Mark this total length on a stick and tape it so that the top is
flush with the top of the mounting board of the motor bracket.
Choose the most appropriate side of your transom for mounting
the bracket. Position your bracket so it will not interfere with the
turning operation of your main motor or rudder.
Refer to Fig. 3
For Powerboat Installation: Take your outboard motor bracket
with the stick taped on and place the mounting flanges on your
transom. Position the bracket so the bottom of the stick is one
inch above the boat’s bottom at the centerline of the outboard
motor bracket.
Refer to Fig. 4
For Sailboat Installation: Take your outboard motor bracket
with the stick taped on and place the mounting flanges on your
transom. Position the bracket so the bottom of the stick is even
with the boat’s actual waterline.
