3. Align the quick
release bracket with the
mark on the deck from
the previous step. Shift
the motor along that line
until there is approxi-
mately 1" of clearance
between the shaft of the
system and the rub-rail
of the boat. (In bow
mount installations this
is generally the critical
clearance point. Refer to
the table below for other
recommended clear-
ances.) Once in position,
use the marking pen to
draw a line on the deck
around the back of the
quick release bracket.
4A (Black Aluminum Mounts). Remove the system
from the boat and detach the lower half of the
quick release bracket. Place the lower half of the
quick release bracket on the deck and align it with
the marks made in the previous steps. Place your
marking pen through the holes in the base and
draw a circle to depict the location for the mount-
ing holes. Depending on the shape of your boat
it may not be possible to use the outer most
holes, however it is desirable to choose the
four mounting holes that are spaced as far
apart as possible to provide the most stable
installation.
4B (White Composite Mounts). Remove the
system from the boat. Place the included
mounting template on the deck and align it
with the marks made in the previous steps.
Use your pen to mark the locations of the
mounting holes on the deck.
5. Once the holes are marked, verify that
there are no wires or other components be-
neath the mounting hole locations that might
be damaged. Drill a / " hole at each of the four

locations marked.
