Mounting Your Downrigger to the Pedestal Mount

The Cannon Pedestal Mount provides 1/4”-20 tapped mounting holes for attaching most downrigger mounting bases. To attach a mounting base you will need four 1/4”-20 screws (not included). To determine the length of screws needed, measure the thickness of the downrigger mounting base and add 1/2”. See below for screw lengths for the Cannon Downrigger mounting bases.

Troubleshooting - Swivel Pedestal

Problem: Pedestal will not rotate when the lock pin is disengaged.

Make sure the downrigger line is all the way up. Any load on the downrigger or pedestal may prevent the pin from disengaging. Spray a lubricant into the slot which the lock pin slides. Make sure lock pin moves freely up / down.

Problem: Pedestal rotates while in locked position under normal use.

The break away bolts are not tight enough. Re-torque bolts to 25 ft-lb.

NOTE: Bolts may have to be tightened higher than 25 ft. lbs under some conditions. Do not exceed 35 ft-lb as this may damage the top plate.

Problem: Pedestal did not breakaway while locked when the boom struck an object.

The break away bolts are over-tightened. Loosen bolts and re-torque to 25 ft. lbs.
