Step 1: Choose a Mounting Location
Transom mounting
VERTICAL POSITIONING
1. Place a straight edge on the bottom of the hull directly
below and centered from the desired mounting
location. The lowest point of the Power-Pole anchor
must be at least 4” above this straight edge.
NOTE: If the Power-Pole anchor is mounted lower than
the 4” minimum, the vessel may experience adverse
handling effects. (Figure #1)
CLEARANCE
1. If the vessel is equipped with trim tabs that measure 9”
or less in length, the standard 4” minimum mounting
height will be sufficient. If the trim tabs are larger than
9”, the Power-Pole anchor will need to be mounted
higher up on the transom to prevent interference.
2. While holding the Power-Pole anchor in place, turn
and tilt the motor as far as possible toward the unit.
With the motor turned toward the unit, manually move
the anchor through its entire range of motion to verify
clearance.
3. Once clearance has been verified on the exterior
portion of the vessel, check for adequate space on the
inside of the transom mounting area. Make sure that
the bolts will not have any obstructions, and that you
will have space to tighten the 5/16” tall brass nuts
