Converting from nose tow to CG tow is quick and easy. Remove the top cover
and as shown previously (Fig 9), pull out the cable assembly and unscrew the
connected cable assembly locking sleeves. Separate the cables by manually
pulling them apart, straight out. Using a pair of pliers, straighten out the cotter
pin holding in the black nose clevis pin, remove the cotter pin and clevis pin and
then remove the tow cable
assembly from the nose
assembly by pulling straight out.
Replace the nose plug, black
clevis pin and cotter pin that were
removed in the first assembly
process.

Next attach the tow cable clevis assembly
to the tow point hole in the handle assembly using the stainless steel CG tow pin
as shown and secure with a supplied cotter pin (Fig 10 and 11). Make sure you

Note that the pigtail cable assembly (shown with protective spiral wrap above)
must exit the tow cable clevis termination as shown toward the front of the fish.

silicone grease and mate the connectors, screwing together the locking sleeves
to complete the connection (Fig 12 A). Then gently push the connector pair and
