Setting Up Your Downrigger, Attaching the Boom

Setting Up Your Downrigger

Attaching the Boom

The boom inserts into the downrigger frame. Be sure that the boom is held securely by seating it firmly against the shoulder inside the fame and fastening the boom locking screw (#8 X 1” self tapping) so that it engages the hole in the boom.

Assemble Swivel Head To Boom

Spread the swivel head side plates and slip the assembly over the boom end. Snap the assembly together and install two #4 x 1/2" screws into the swivel head.

For Lake-Troll only: On swivel head assembly with counter leave the corrugated spacer in place until the assembly is snapped together, remove the spacer and install the screws.

TIP: Adjusting the angle of the boom head can help control cable wrap on the reel.
