FOLLOW THESE GUIDELINES FOR USING AND LOCATING THE PONTOON BUNKS (FIGURE 2.4).
-THE WIDTH OF THE BUNKS SHOULD KEEP THE PONTOONS OFF THE CRADLE BEAMS.
-THE BUNKS SHOULD BE KEPT AS LOW AS POSSIBLE (NOT QUITE TOUCHING THE CLAMP).
-TO PLACE BUNKS, FIND CENTER BETWEEN PONTOONS AND CENTER OF THE BOAT FROM PONTOONS
AND TRANSLATE MEASUREMENT TO CRADLE BEAM TO DETERMINE CENTER OF EACH PAIR OF BUNKS.
-THE REAR OF A 21’ PONTOON BOAT SHOULD OVERHAND PAST THE LIFT BY 3 FEET. FOR EVERY
ADDITIONAL FOOT IN LENGTH OF THE BOAT, IT SHOULD OVERHANG BY AN ADDITIONAL 6 INCHES
BEYOND THE REAR OF THE LIFT. THESE ARE GENERAL GUIDELINES THAT CAN BE ADJUSTED FOR AN
INDIVIDUAL’S CIRCUMSTANCES.
-ONCE BUNKS ARE IN THEIR FINAL LOCATION, TORQUE 3/8” NUTS ON CRADLE CLAMPS TO 35 FT-LBS
AND ½” NUTS ON CRADLE CLAMPS TO 70 FT-LBS (FIGURE 2.4).
