Cut 6 equal pieces of 3/16" diameter
(5 mm) line, each about 18" (45 cm)
long. Tie each one to a corner latch of
the reflector with a bowline knot as
shown. Locate the 3 corner holes
which include the 3 stamped arrows.
Group these three attachment lines
and tie to the hoisting halyard. This will
automatically place the reflector in the
“catch rain” position if all three corner
lines are the same length. Attach the 3
remaining support lines to a downhaul
halyard. Suspend the reflector vertical-
ly as high as possible.
Mounting Echomaster #152
The standard Echomaster #152 does not include a mounting system. The best way
to install this product is to assemble it around a backstay or make your own bridle
and hang from holes drilled in the corner latches.
6-Point Temporary Mounting
For infrequent, temporary mounting, a
rope harness can be constructed as
shown here.
Slide the remaining half plate in place, as shown
(reverse this half plate if the corner latches do not
match).
Snap in place the three remaining corner latches that
secure the half plates.
