User Notes
Concept hatches are restricted to 85 degree opening and should not be forced beyond their "stop" position, as damage to the linkage mechanism may occur.
Do not attempt to force the hatch closed or open when levers are locked as damage to the linkage mechanism will occur.
If the hatch is accidentally closed with the levers in the closed position, the shear pin between the small straight lever and the moulding will fail. The hatch can still be opened and closed but no positioning is possible. Remove the broken parts and replace to rectify.
To adjust the lid opening position, support the lid whilst moving the locking levers to the unlocked position. Position the lid, ensuring that the mechanism is correctly aligned when
Locking levers should remain in the unlocked position when the hatch is closed to prevent accidental damage when opening.
The ventilation position is used by closing the handles into the rebate in the lower frame. Care should be taken not to stand on or load the hatch lid in this position, as damage could occur to the handle or window assembly.
Do not lock the levers in the ventilation position.
The hatch must always be closed when the boat is in motion to prevent accidental damage.
Where used, the flyscreen is fitted by using the sewn on tabs to stretch it across the corners of the trim. Ensure that the elasticated bead is correctly located into the frame lip.
No adjustment to the hinge mechanism should be necessary during normal usage, however, if the operation of the locking levers becomes excessively stiff, the centre screw may be adjusted taking care to remove all free play.
Always wash the hatch with soap, water and a soft cloth.
Never use abrasive or solvent cleaners on the acrylic lid, as this may at a later date damage the acrylic.
To avoid risk of injury care should be taken to keep hands and limbs clear of linkage and lid pinch zones while operating and adjusting the hatch.
