Fixed-Bail Mounting the Device
NOTICE
If you are mounting the bracket on fiberglass with screws, it is recommended to use a countersink bit to drill a
clearance counterbore through only the top gel-coat layer. This will help to avoid cracking in the gel-coat layer
when the screws are tightened.
1 If you do not want to use the included wood screws to secure the bail-mount bracket, select the mounting
hardware appropriate for the bail-mount bracket and your mounting surface.
NOTICE
Only pan-head machine bolts or self-tapping screws should be used to secure the swivel base. If you use
screws with countersunk heads, you may damage the mounting bracket.
2 Using the bail-mount bracket as a template , mark the pilot holes through the screw holes.
3 Complete an action:
• If you are using the included wood screws , drill the four pilot holes using a 3 mm (
1
/
8
in.) drill bit.
• If you are using your own mounting hardware, drill the four pilot holes using a drill bit appropriate for your
hardware.
4 Secure the bail-mount bracket to the mounting surface using the included wood screws or your mounting
hardware.
5 Loosely install the bail-mount knobs on the sides of the cradle.
6 Place the cradle in the bail-mount bracket.
7 Tighten the bail-mount knobs.
