m. Mount the motor to the boat using the provided
hardware. Start with the side of the Motor where
the Power Tilt is located. This is the opposite side
of the Base Extrusion from where the Extension
Damper was removed. The base of the Motor where
the Power Tilt is located has Mounting Slots and
the side where the Extension Damper is located has
Mounting Holes.
n. Install the motor using three each of the Long Bolts
(Item #3), Clipped Washers (Item #5), Rubber
Washers (if needed), Flat Washers (Item #6) and
Nylock Nuts (Item #7). Position the Clipped Washers
so that the flat side of the washer faces towards the
Base Extrusion. The Bolt should pass through the
Clipped Washer, the Rubber Washer (if needed)
and then the Boat Deck. The Bolt should be secured
by first adding the Flat Washer to the Bolt and
securing with a Nylock Nut. Tighten with a 7/16"
Box End Wrench. Leave at least 1/4" space between
the Bolt and Clipped Washer and the deck of the
boat. This will leave enough space to slide the Base
Extrusion between the Clipped Washer and Rubber
Washer and into place.
