STEP 5- Seat Bottom Lacing

pontoons so that it is upsidedown. Using the two short
lacings, tie a double half hitch at each outer grommet of the
short flap. Pass lacing over crossbar and up through opposite
outside grommet located on the long flap. Pass lacing back
and down through the opposite grommet. Tie a double half
hitch around all lacing. Using the long lacing, start at one end
with a half hitch and lace grommets together as diagrammed.
NOTE: Center grommet on flap is for the backpack sys-
tem and should not be laced.

Locate black plastic seat back, 10" aluminum posts with plastic C clamps, and two 3/4" Phillips head screws. Insert seat
back posts up through holes in flanged bottom edge of seat back. Insert screws into the recessed holes of seat back.
and thread posts onto screws. Snap molded C clamps onto the forward crossbar where cutaways in the seat bottom
reveal the crossbar.

Locate 3" loop with buckle and the 56" strap with two male buckles. Flatten the 3" loop and pass upwards through out-
side slot located on the top flange of the seatback. Pull snugly until stopped by buckle.
Remove the strap from the male buckle off one end of the strap that is looped through the rear cross bar. Locate slots
on sides of seatback adjacent to white nylon fittings. Insert webbing from the front through slot. Pass webbing between
seat back and seat posts, up through 3" webbing loop, and out through opposite slot. Run the strap back through the
male buckle you initially removed it from. Adjust length for comfort.
