Placing the Bow-Mount Stabilizer
The Bow-Mount Stabilizer Bracket is used to stabilize the Steering Module and reduce bouncing when the motor is stowed
and transported. Attention to detail is needed for successful installation of the stabilizer. We recommend to have the stabilizer
bracket installed by a qualified marine installer.
Adjusting the Aluminum Rod too tightly removes the end play needed for proper latch pin engagement and doing so could
prevent the mount from fully latching in the stowed position. Improper latching may cause damage. If installed correctly, the
tip of the Aluminum Rod should lift off of the boat deck about 1/4" without the mount unlatching. Cutting the Aluminum Rod
too short will cause inadequate support of the mount. Lack of mount support may cause damage.
