Transom Mount Installation

TWIST TILLER MODELS
1. Clamp screws: The clamp screws allow for easy motor
installation and removal. Mount your motor on the transom and
then tighten the clamp screws securely.
2. Tilt position pin: This pin allows you to adjust the tilt of the
motor.
3. Depth collar adjustment: The depth of the motor can be
adjusted up and down by loosening the depth collar knob. The
depth collar is located on the column directly above the mount.
After adjusting to the position and depth desired, tighten the
knob.
4. Steering tension adjustment: To adjust the steering resistance,
simply tighten or loosen the steering friction knob.

Pontoon Mount Installation

1. Carefully select the area on the deck to install the mount. Choose
an area where the mount will provide ample clearance for all of
the motor positions, including the running and stowing positions.
2. Place the mount base on the surface of the boat deck where it is
to be mounted; use the mount base as a template to mark the
location of the holes.
3. Drill mounting holes with a 6.5 mm (0.25 in.) drill bit and clear the
holes of any debris. Countersink the holes (only on fiberglass
boats) and again clear any remaining debris from the holes.
4. Install the four stainless steel mounting bolts through each of the
bracket mounting holes.
5. Install the four stainless steel washers and nuts on the bottom
side of the deck and tighten securely.
6. The trolling motor can now be placed in the mount.

Bow Mount Installation

IMPORTANT: Choose an area on the deck that provides 7.6 cm
(3 in.) clearance from the bow of the boat for all motor positions,
including deployed and stowed positions.
