Outboard Motor bracket operated by spring

Convertible to hydraulic

This is an outboard motor bracket operated by spring to elevate the outboard motor.

This bracket was designed for light motors; it can bear motors to 15hp. or 45Kgr.

It is equipped with a double action lock that locks the bracket when it's up or down, this prevents the motor from going up improperly when going reverse.

In the squads that attach the bracket to the boat, are 3 sets of holes to adjust the vertical position in 50 millimeters in steps of 25 millimeters.

Every friction or contact between the pieces is isolated with 6,6 nylon bushings with fiberglass charges that prevents the wear and the galvanic/ electroplatic corrosion in the vital parts.

It may be converted to hydraulic adding a cylinder

This cylinder is sold as an "Hydraulic Kit", this kit has the elements needed to the conversion.

    Mounting Directions

    1. Place the upper edge of the mounting board to 0,70 meter (27,55 inches) over the water line, that, if the craft is on the water should be with no people on board and with weights evenly distributed. Them mark on the stern or on the wooden wedge the central hole for each set of 3 holes (The inferior and superior hole of each set are used to correct the height once is fitted, if necessary. Make a hole with a 10.5-millimeter (7/16 inches) which to place 3/8" bolts. The recommended height is worth for short legs, long legs and extra leg motors.
    2. Check the motor to be perpendicular to the water line (see picture) if the stern of the craft is not perpendicular to water, you must make a wood or metal wedge to correct the angle.
    3. We recommend strengthening the interior of the stern with a hard wood board.
    4. We advise you to fasten the outboard motor to the craft with a steel wire, or chain (this is an insurance requirement)
