Securing the Lower Gas Spring

  1. If necessary, transition the trolling motor from the deployed to the stowed position.

    If the gas spring is positioned on the other side of the mount after you stowed the motor, you may need to lift up the mount and flip over the gas spring so you can secure it to the mount.

  2. Align the hole on the base of the lower gas spring Callout number one with the safety rod Callout number two, and press down.

    NOTE: If you must rotate the gas spring so the base aligns with the mount, rotate the spring in a clockwise direction only. Rotating the gas spring in a counter-clockwise direction may loosen the fittings.
  3. Using a #2 Phillips screwdriver, secure the base of the lower gas spring to the mount using the screws you removed when disconnecting the gas spring Callout number three.
