Installation
1. Inspect and identify the contents of the EasyGuide
carton. Remove all the molded components and the
fasteners supplied with the EasyGuide Kit.
2. Place the two float upper housing tops upside down
(on the EasyGuide logo) on a clean flat work surface. Note
the direction of the EasyGuide logo.
3. Clean the outside edges of both the upper and lower
float housings to remove any contaminates and/or grease or
oil on the sealing surfaces. Apply a bead of the sealant
to
the sealing surface on the upper float housing. Also place
sealant in the screw holes on the lower float housing. Place
the lower float housing on the upper float housing and
install the twelve #12 screws per housing assembly. Torque
the screws to approximately 30 in.-lb. Do not over-tighten
the screws.
NOTE: The “E” shaped integral float rest on the lower
housing is to be at the rear of the float assembly. When
the assembly is completed. There should be a LH and RH
float assembly with the EasyGuide logo readable from
the outside of the trailer.
4. Identify the LH upper and LH lower arms (parts are
identied on the underside of the molded components)
(Fig.1). Press the splined male tab of the upper swing arm
into the slot of the lower swing arm.
NOTE: These components will assemble easier at room
temperature and above.
NOTE: The option configuration in Fig. 1 can be used if
more float adjustment is needed.
5. Press arms completely together and install the ¼” arm
bolts and self-locking nuts in the hex shaped pockets. Tighten
to approximately 50
in.-lb.
Do not over-tighten. Repeat
these steps for the opposite side swing arm assembly. The
flat surfaces of the swing arm assemblies will be up in the
nal assembly onto the trailer.
6. Take two (2) U-bolts and place them through the desired
holes facing down. Place Trailer Plate on the trailer
slightly in front of axle. Take two (2) tie plates and place
them underneath the trailer onto the U-bolts and secure
with the nuts. DO NOT TIGHTEN TO TRAILER. Repeat
for other side.
7. Take the arm and locate the 1.5” tines (one side is 1” and
the other is 1.5”). Place the 1.5” side to the trailer plate and
secure it with 3/8” x 5” Pivot Bolt (Pin) (Fig.2). DO NOT
PUT THE NUT ON AT THIS TIME.

boat. Raise the arm to meet the float at the waterline. Once
the tines of the float and arm are connected place 3/8” x 5”
Pivot Bolt (Pin) through the hole. THE PIVOT (BOLT) PIN
SHOULD GO FROM THE INSIDE OUT. (THE THREADS
WILL BE ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE TRAILER.)
