Installing the seating system before assembling the frame and
canvas will make installation easier.
1. Install the seat slide brackets onto the seat swivel using the flathead machine
screws and nylock nuts and washers. Leave the bolts loose enough to allow them to
be adjusted.
Tools Required:
Ratchet & 7/16” socket
7/16”wrench
Short extension for Ratchet or 7//16” deep socket
Drill/Driver
Phillips Bit
Phillips Screwdriver
½” Wrench
½” socket
5/16” Drill Bit
7/16” Drill Bit
Seat slides
Flathead Phillips bolts are inserted
here
Phillips screwdriver is inserted through
these holes to tighten flathead screws.
Washer and nylock nut
attach on the backside.

2. Slide brackets and swivel part way onto the plastic base. Adjust the fit to be snug by
pressing in on the brackets. However the brackets still need to be able to slide smoothly
back and forth on the plastic base. Tighten the bolts securely once the fit is correct.
3. Line up the swivel with the inserts in the bottom of the seat. Loosely install the ¼ x ¾”
Phillips head bolt with washers (included in the seat box) into the inserts in the bottom of
the seat. Tighten all 4 bolts securely once the swivel is properly positioned.
Press in on slide
brackets and adjust
for proper fit on
plastic base.
Tighten all 4 nylock
nuts securely once
properly adjusted.
Install Phillips
head bolts and
washers here.

4. Drill out the four pre-marked holes for the seat rail brackets as shown using a 5/16”
drill bit. The sled may be tipped upside down to make drilling the holes easier.
5. Attach the metal brackets to the seat rail using the 5/16” bolts and nuts. The bracket
with the greater angle goes toward the front of the sled. Attach plastic end caps onto the
seat rail using the self tapping screws. A small pilot hole may be drilled to ease
installation.
Drill four pre-marked holes at these
locations.
Drill these 2 pre-marked holes with
a 5/16 drill bit. Drill these 2 pre-marked holes with
a 5/16 drill bit.

6. After the brackets and end caps are installed the seat rail may be bolted into place
with the ¼” bolts, washers and nylock nuts
using the previously drilled holes.
Install plastic base and seat onto the rail. Use WD-40 or silicone to lubricate plastic
seat base opening so it will go onto the aluminum rail easier.
Install plastic end caps here.
Secure with ¾” self tapping screws.
Install seat rail here. Some
downward pressure may be
necessary to get the holes to
align.
Bolt rear
bracket to sled
here.
Bolt front bracket to sled
here. Lubricate here for easier
pivoting on the seat rail.
Two seat bases and
one seat installed.
