Mount the blades (2) and the pins (3) to the hub. Be sure that you mount them in accordance to their
numbers, i.e. #1 and #2 positions. Lightly grease the moving parts of the blades -gears- with water
resistant grease after cleaning and repair.

Apply Loctite-243 on the threads of the Four(4) M8 Allen screws (7&8) & Install into aft end of hub
forks screwing them in until they tighten against the blade pin. Total four (4)
–
two (2) per blade pin.
The second screw is a locking screw. Tighten both in place using supplied Allen Wrench. On 16.5-
18”
dia. the longer setscrew goes in first, the short one on top.
11.
Check that the blades will move freely from open to closed.
Your Gori is water lubricated. At hauling, after cleaning, & before storage, put a light smear of a
waterproof grease over the blade teeth, blade cheeks and hub fork housing contact points. This will allow
you to check blade operation and stop oxidization of the metal when out of the water.
