Installation Instructions

Tools needed:

Portable drill, 1/8” drill bit, chamfer bit, tape measure, pencil, Philips screwdriver or Phillips tip for use on drill, and 3/32” allen wrench.

1. Decide on the area you wish to install the Dockaway. If on a fiberglass boat the area should have solid backing under the surface for mounting the bracket. If this is not possible, you will need to use other fasteners then the screws provided, such as screws and nuts.
    
2. Have the boat a safe distance from the dock (approximately 6 to 8 inches away) or more if desired and mark the area you will install the brackets.
    
3. Remove the brackets from the rods and place the brackets in the marked areas (boat surface and dock) and mark the holes for drilling.
    
4. Drill all holes with 1/8” drill bit and chamfer the holes in the fiberglass so it will not crack when inserting the screws provided.
    
5. Mount the brackets and install the rod assembly. Make any adjustments by sliding the adjusting blocks on the rods. Make sure all the screws are securely tightened.

Please Note: Dock lines must be used in conjunction with the Dockaway.
