INTRODUCTION
Thank you for choosing a Scotty Downrigger. In 1973 Scotty produced its first
downrigger. Our goal was to manufacture a superior downrigger, built to
withstand the demanding marine environment, and we now produce many manual
and electric models. This instruction book will give you basic instruction on
mounting and using your downrigger. Please read it carefully. It will improve
your results and also give you important tips on downrigger safety and care.
Good
Fishing!
FEATURES
Auto Brake
Releases automatically when winding up downrigger, and sets automatically
when the handle is released.
Clutch Brake
The Scotty clutch brake allows descent of the downrigger at any speed
you choose. Most of the time you will want a uniform slow speed to avoid tangles.
However, in instances where you want a lure deep very quickly, the Scotty will
respond, giving you complete control. In addition, the clutch brake can be set
so that it will slip if you hang up on the bottom. Many times you can then turn the
boat around and lift the weight free without losing anything.
Limited Lifetime Warranty
Through the use of non-corrosive materials and sound engineering, Scotty is proud to
warranty all its manual downriggers for the lifetime of the original owner.
We will also back our customers with fast, direct factory service and do our best
to get them back fishing as fast and inexpensively as possible. Please read the
warranty agreement carefully and retain the certificate section in a safe place.
