Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility:
This hydrofoil is designed for outboard motors ranging from 4 to 50 horsepower. The distance between the mounting holes (center to center) on the engine's anti-ventilation plate should be approximately 2.4 inches for proper fitment.
**Setup (Installation):
- Position the hydrofoil on the anti-ventilation plate of your outboard motor.
- Align the mounting holes on the hydrofoil with the pre-drilled holes on the plate (if applicable) or mark new hole locations.
- Secure the hydrofoil using the included stainless steel bolts, nuts, and washers. Ensure all connections are tight but do not overtighten.
- *Note: Always refer to your outboard motor's manual for specific installation guidelines regarding accessories on the anti-ventilation plate.*
Care:
- Rinse the hydrofoil with fresh water after each use, especially in saltwater environments, to prevent corrosion and salt buildup.
- Periodically check the mounting hardware to ensure it remains secure.
- Clean the hydrofoil surface with mild soap and water if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the ABS material.
