Rigging, ATTACHmenT To LoWeR UniT

If no turnbuckle is required, attach the rod marine eye directly

to the integral toggle on the 2.5.
If a turnbuckle is required, it must terminate in a marine eye

that will fit directly to the integral toggle. Use a Navtec C560

turnbuckle or similar for rod with either a

" (15.9mm) pin

" (19mm) pin diameter.

ReTRoFiTS, FiTTing Rod

If you plan to reuse the existing rod and turnbuckle:
Lower end—If you are using a standard Navtec turnbuckle

with integral toggle, the lower body must be replaced with a

standard Navtec marine eye body. Check to make sure that

this eye will mate with the Harken integral toggle. Two cross

pin sizes are available. They are the same size as the clevis

pin. See above.
Upper end—You must take apart the marine eye so that you

are left with a threaded nosepiece. Check to see if this is pos-

sible. If necessary, contact Navtec or Riggarna for correct pro-

cedure. You will slip carbon foils over this threaded nosepiece.

If you cannot remove this fitting you will need to cut the rod.
