PARTS LIST

Attaching the end !ttings to long curved Front Legs Note there is a left and right front leg. You will also see that one end has a welded lap joint already. At the opposite end of the front leg insert the raised circle base of the !tting into the counter sunk area. Use the M12 bolt and split washer inserted through the centre and tighten.

Attaching the front legs to the to L shape Elbow sections. The front legs have a Square shaped Lap joint already welded onto the top end.
Note: There is a Left and Right front leg and a Left and right Elbow L shape also. Attach the lap joint with the two threaded holes of the front leg to the two open holes of the lap joint of the elbow section.
Check the shape of the legs are correct. If you are in doubt you can always swap them over and check.

Insert 1 x open hole !tting with the raised circle base of the !tting into the counter sunk area at one end of the short curved rear leg. Use the M12 bolt and split washer inserted through the centre and tighten. Repeat this to the second rear leg.

At the other end of the rear leg insert 1 x threaded !tting with the raised circle base of the !tting into the counter sunk area at the end of the short leg. Use the M12 bolt and split washer inserted through the centre and tighten. Repeat this process to the other rear leg.

Note the shape and the "at base of the deck mount. Note the threaded hole from the bottom of the base of deck mount.

Distance between Front Mounts across the boat up to 2m wide. We recoomend to Use extra plate of (ply or Alloy) underneath the deck between the our alloy plate and the the hull of the boat. Spread over the largest possible area to reduce gel coat cracking. WARNING: Check that you have clear access to the area for drilling and tightening bolts. Check for objects, wires or other hazards you could damage when drilling. Do not measure from or use windscreens, cleats, vents as a reference point. These objects are not always square and the same as the opposite side. It is best to use the front of the boat as the reference point and also the top edge of the deck mould or similar if possible. Always triple measure and check before drilling. Tighten the deck mounts !rm but not locked into position as you will still need to rotate and align at a later point during installation.

deck mounts in the area you wish to mount. Either infront of the windscreen out to the side as far as possible or on the angle side of the boat to the side of your windscreeen. Check that the measurement is less than 2m wide. Remember the measurement you have.
(a) Now built up the front legs and and top tube and lay on the ground. Check that the front mounts can adjust to !t you boat at the distance you require.
Note for narrow boats you my have to cut the top tube to allow the legs to insert in further for the correct mounting distance.
TIP it is a good idea to grab one side leg and hold up against the boat and move forwards and backwards and in front of the screeen. Whilst someone stands back to see what looks the best to suit your boat. Mark this position and then check the other side for objects, wires etc before drilling these areas.
(b) Drill and Attach the front deck mounts (ref to assamble diagram) Use the front of the boat as ref point. Position deck mounts on a "at surface on as close as possible to "at. If on the side position close as posible to the top edge/corner of the deck for the strongest port of the boat and least amount of "ex in the side of the boat. Use small pilot hole !rst and drilling in revesere can help stop chipping gel coat.

If yes you need to attach the knuckle joint to the front deck mounts. You can play with the deck mounts rotating them so the "at surfaces faces up on one side and down on the other. Then attach the knuckle joint to the deck mounts. Leave the deck mounts so they can still slightly rotate under pressure for positioning.
NOTE: There is no left or right knuckle so one deck mount will face forwards the other will face backwards.

Attaching the front legs to the deck mounts and telescopic top section. At this stage it is good to mark you elbow section with a reference mark which will come in handy later. Measure from the tube end on the elbow towards the corner bend and make a mark or tape.

(a) Attach one of the front legs to the deck mount or knuckle joint. You should be able to still rotate the deck mount at this time. It should be !rm and solid but not locked into position.
(b) Lay the front leg down towards the back of the boat.
(c) Now slide the tow point top tube over the elbow section of the front leg. Careful do not scratch.
(d ) Slide the other front leg into the single top tube and then attach to the front deck mount.
(e) Centre the tow point and tape the tube so it does not move and scratch your legs.
(f) Tighten the front deck mounts and knuckle joints. Check you can freely lift and lower the tower.

If you are con!dent in the positioning of the rear deck mounts and the look you will have.
You can just measure back a distance between 1.5m to 2m from the front deck mounts and follow the deck mount assemble like the front deck mounts.
or with a couple of friends
Attach one of the rear legs to your tower. Lift the tower and one person can adjust the position of the rear leg backwards,forwards, up and down to position you like. You stand back and look from the side to see what you like the best.
Mark the deck mount position you like. Take measurements mark out the opposite side of the boat.

WARNING: Before drilling check for objusts, wires etc under the deck where you are going to drill.

INSTALL BY YOURSELF.
You might have to do some guess work with the location of the rear mount. As a guide1.75m from the front and position the mount near the top edge of the deck for the strongest area of the boat.

Make sure the front knuckle joints are square so you can pivot and lower the tower from the front.

Using the reference marks you made earlier. Have the tow point vertical or leaning slightly forwards.

across the !tting to the tube. Once you have marked all the joints. Remove one !tting at a time, use lock tight on the centre bolt and re attach each bolt. For the bolt you need to loosen to fold do not use lock tight.
