6. Once installed, the bracket should fasten securely and evenly, with the latch
pins in the slots, and release with a light, easy pull on the rope handle.
Permanent Foot Pedal Mounting (Optional)
1. Determine a suitable location for the foot pedal with the trolling motor deployed
and in the stowed position. Ensure that there are no obstructions beneath the
boat deck that would interfere with the mounting screws, such as bulkheads or
boat wiring.
2. Once a suitable location is chosen, mark the mounting holes, using the foot
pedal as a template.
3. Use a 3 mm (7/64 in.) drill bit to drill holes through the boat deck.
