Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the rest, screw the unit onto any standard threaded bankstick. Ensure the bankstick is driven firmly into the ground to prevent wobbling, as the counterbalance mechanism relies on a stable base.
Compatibility: This rest features a universal thread, making it compatible with the vast majority of fishing banksticks and tripod setups currently on the market.
Care Instructions: After use in wet or muddy conditions, rinse the pivot mechanism with fresh water to prevent grit build-up. Occasionally, a light application of silicone-based spray can keep the pivot movement smooth. Store in a dry place to prevent corrosion of internal components.
