INSTALLATION PROCEDURES
Congratulations, you have just purchased one of the finest outboard motor brackets available
today. With proper installation and care, this motor bracket will provide you with years of
trouble free use and performance.
Please take a few moments to review the information contained in the instructions to
familiarize yourself with the installation procedures suggested to successfully mount your new
motor bracket. Installation is easy particularly when you know each step ahead of time.
ASSEMBLY OF BRACKETS
The Model 55-0027 is designed so you can adjust the height of the bracket. Determine which
height adjustment best suits your needs and assemble according to the following instructions.
Step 1. Align the motor plate mounting holes to the height adjustment holes of the transom
plate. The motor plate has the Panther label. Make sure that the motor plate is attached
as shown in the picture. The picture shows the bracket fully extended.
Step 2. Put a washer onto a bolt and insert the bolt through the plates as shown in picture.
Install washer and nut on other end and hand tighten. Finish installing the remaining
bolts, washers, and nuts in the same manner. Securely tighten all bolts.
MOUNTING THE BRACKET TO THE BOAT
Place the assembled bracket on the desired location of your transom. Hold the bracket in place.
Make certain that the transom bracket is level. Mark at least two (2) upper and two (2) lower
hole locations using the transom plate as a template. Drill out the marks you just made using a
½” drill bit. Attach bracket to boat using appropriate length bolts, nuts, and washers.
Tighten securely.
**** Stainless Steel mounting hardware is recommended (not included). ****

HANGING THE MOTOR
Lift your motor onto the bracket. Position the plastic spacer block under the motor clamp
handles and against the lip of the bracket. Tighten securely.
