Cat. No. 0448 Series Fishing Rod Holder
Cat. No. 0452 Series Fishing Rod Holder
Cat. No. 1205 Series Fishing Rod Holder
MOUNTING INFORMATION
Read all instructions before proceeding
These rod holders are designed to be mounted with their tubes pointing forward, thus
allowing the fishing rod to be held pointing aft. This minimizes stress on the rod butt while
fishing and running. CAUTION: A safety line attached from the rod and reel to the mount-
ing surface is recommended, particularly when running or fishing with heavy duty gear.
1). The above rod holders must be mounted on a surface that allows approximately 9 inch-
es of clearance below the flange.
2). Using a hole saw, cut a 2-3/8 or 2-1/2 inch hole in the surface at a 65° angle from the
surface and in the forward direction. The plastic package of the rod holder (supplied
with the DP series holders listed above) may be used as an approximate guide by trim-
ming away the top section of the package. (See Diagram #2.)
3). If necessary trim the hole with a rasp or file so that the flange and gasket fit flat on to
the mounting surface (see Diagram #3).
Do not attempt to draw the flange down
with the mounting bolts or damage to the holder will result.
4). Using the rod holder as a guide, mark three mounting holes. Remove the rod holder
and drill for three 1/4 inch (#10 on Fig. 0452) flat or oval head mounting bolts.
5). Place the rod holder (with rubber gasket/cap) in place and secure it with the three
mounting bolts. The lift tab on the cap should point forward.
6). If the rod holder is equipped with an optional drain bib, attach a 5/8 inch I.D. flexible
hose to the drain bib and rout to desired location.
Note: Rod holders are not designed for uses other than as a fishing rod holder. Use
of rod holders for mounting of downriggers or other accessories may void
warranty.
