To add cable routing to your particular boat, contact the boat manufacturer for recommendations. Kayak cable routing can generally be broken down into two categories: cables routed above the deck of the kayak, and cables routed below the deck of the kayak. Cables routed above deck will usually demand the steering triangle be mounted at the top of the shaft. This mount is designed to work with high routing setups on kayaks equipped with integrated cable routing. For kayaks with cable routing requiring you to use the high position, see section Setup with Control Cords at the Top on page 14. In some cases, further tweaks may be required to refine the operation. 10 See Our Product Quick Start Videos for more information 4.2.1 SETUP WITH CONTROL CORDS AT THE TOP If you have a kayak setup with control cords running on the top of the kayak, follow the steps below to finish the motor control cords setup: Steering triangle Swing arm M6 screw M6 nut Washer 1. Assemble the swing arm and steering triangle as shown above, then insert the screw, washer, and nut as shown and attach loosely- don't tighten yet. 2. Place the screw, washer and nut on the clamping ring as figure shows, connect them loosely and don't tighten yet. 3. Make sure the steering triangle is aligned with the direction of the motor. If the triangle is an arrow, it should point towards the front of the boat, while the propeller should face back. 4. Tighten the screws on the clamping ring and the steering triangle. In this setup, the steering triangle determines the depth of the motor. Make sure the propeller can be at least 2 inches (5 cm) below the water surface. 11 4.2.2 ADJUSTING MOTOR DEPTH OF WATER AFTER SETUP 1. Hold the motor firmly and loosen the screw on either the clamping ring or the steering triangle, whichever is topmost on the shaft in your set up. 2.
