INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Remove stock sponsons: Using the Torx key remove the OEM bolts from each sponson Clear all excess silicone away from behind the OEM sponsons.
  2. Apply a bead of Marine Sikaflex sealant around the edges of the Backing rails, and around each of the mounting holes (five on each side).
  3. Fit the backing rails to both sides of the boat using supplied M8 x 50mm bolts (apply Loctite to bolts) and the 8mm flat washers. Tighten using the 13mm socket wrench and spanner. WORX Racing’s WR561-I sponson allows the back-ing rail to be adjusted according to your riding style. Stock setting is the lower set of mounting holes. To increase stability and help eliminate chine walking, use the top mounting holes of the backing rails

  5. Fit the sponsons paddle using the remaining ¼ x 1 ¼ bolts supplied (apply Loc-tite to bolts and start all of the bolts into the side rails before tightening).
  6. Adjust the blades according to your riding style: These paddles are adjustable in height, Most riders will prefer the setting in the down position for the most aggressive performance.
  7. After riding for about 15 minutes check that your sponson bolts are tight and when you have decided which position best suits your riding style apply a layer of Marine silicone sealant between the side rails and the sponsons and also apply red loctite to the mounting bolts. Regularly check that the sponson fixing bolts are tight. The first hour is crucial.
