INSTALL CHINE AND GUNWALE BARS WITH SEAT SLING.
The seat sling will be suspended from the chine and
gunwale extension bars. These extension bars are all
the same. Have the extension bars inserted to the sewn
sleeves of the seat sling. Place the seat sling with the
extension bars into the kayak with the Safety label
towards the bow. Large lever hole in extension bars is
at the stern. Single black block goes towards bow.
(Note: When installing the extension bars, it is easier
to be situated on the opposite side from the part you
are installing.)
The bow and stern frame tubes will have begun to curve
to the shape of the skin. To allow the extension bars to
connect easily onto the tubes in the skin, bring the tubes
into a straight line to join together.
With the seat sling positioned in the cockpit, slide the
chine extension bars apart, connecting to bow and stern
chine bars. Do the same for the gunwale extension bars.
Complete opposite side.
Slide the seat sling towards the stern so you have easy
access to the spring buttons and lever hole.
