Use a Phillips head driver to remove the cam cleat
from the swivel arm. Note keep the 8G screws.
Use a Phillips head to drive the camcleat screws into the
pre-drilled holes in the riser.
Place supplied M5 nut into cleat riser. Use Allen key
to drive cap screw, washer and nut together. Ensure
the riser is fitted firmly to the arm.
Completed RF6 with cleat riser fitted.
IMPORTANT! PRINT AT (ACTUAL SIZE) Cut template around dashed line.
Use a flat head screw driver to turn the red switch
counter clockwise until the arm swivels freely.
Rotate the arm until the moulded-in arrow on the cleat
base appears in the switch hole in the arm ( fig.1) . With
the template still in place on the mounting surface place
the RF6 over the template and align the base arrow with
the template arrow. While firmly holding down the arm so
the base doesn’t rotate, turn the arm clockwise until the
first mounting hole appears in the switch hole. Fit the first
M5(3/16”) or 8G mounting screw.
Rotate the arm to locate the other three pre-drilled
holes and drive screws into them. There will be two
holes either side of the stopper, ensure the arrow on the
base remains aligned with the arrow on the template.
Align the arrow on template with the boat’s
centre line, pointing forward (toward the bow).
This configuration will give equal rotation of the arm to
each side, with the arm toward the rear (stern) of the
boat.
