INSTRUCTIONS
FOR
MODELS
No. 1080,1085 and 1090
These models mount on the Scotty #I023 tilt-up mounting bracket supplied with the
downrigger. This bracket should be securely mounted to the boat as shown below. The
downrigger can be mounted over the side of the boat, over the stem or off the
comer. The mounting bracket must
be
mounted on a flat surface and the rear of the
bracket must be within 114 of the edge of the gunnel so that the downrigger spool has
clearance for tilting (see diagram). Because of the heavy stresses placed on the boat
gunnel by the leverage of the long downrigger arm, we recommend that a wood or
metal backing plate always be installed on the underside of the mounting surface.
This spreads the load and avoids damage to the boat, in the event of a bottom hang up.
Position the downrigger on the tilt bracket. Insert the stainless steel mounting bolt
through the mounting bracket and downrigger base. Hand tighten.

114"
MAXIMUM
NOTE:
If
your boat's gunnel configuration does not allow
this standard mounting, see the optional mounts on page 11.
