How to use the Swivel Pedestal
Cannon’s swivel base downrigger pedestals allow you to rotate the mounting plate for optimal positioning.
To rotate the mounting plate, disengage the lock pin by pulling the lock pin handle down. Turn the plate to the desired angle and release the spring loaded lock pin making sure that it reengages. Check to make sure the swivel is
in a fixed position.
Swivel Base Break Away Reset
The Cannon Swivel bases feature a unique break away system which allows the top plate to rotate while in
the locked position. The break away feature will help prevent damage to the downrigger and boat in the event that
the downrigger boom or ball would strike an object. If this should occur, the mounting plate of the swivel pedestal
will turn, giving way to the unexpected load. The mounting plate can be reset back to any position by following
these steps:
1) Locate the 3/8” bolts on the bottom of the top plate (See Figure 1).
2) With the pedestal locked in any position, loosen the bolts
3) Rotate the mounting plate back to the desired position.
4) Tighten the 3/8” bolts to 25 ft-lb.
Note: The downrigger weight must be stowed before resetting the swivel pedestal mount.

Mounting the Pedestal to Your Boat
Mounting Directly to Deck or Gunnel
Carefully choose an ideal position where you may best utilize your pedestal mount. Use the base of the
pedestal as a template to mark hole locations and drill four 9/32" diameter through holes. Fix the pedestal to the
deck or gunnel using four 1/4”-20 flat head screws with four flat washers, lock washers, and nuts (not included). To
determine the length of screw needed, measure the thickness of deck that you are mounting to and add at least
3/4”.
Mounting to Cannon Track Mount
For versatility and lightening quick mounting, the Cannon Mounting
Track system is ideal for utilizing your pedestal mount on your boat. Slide the
base of the pedestal into the track and tighten the thumb screws to fix the pedestal in position. You may use a 3/16” Allen wrench for additional tightening.
Note: For the Swivel Pedestal Mount, rotate the release handle to access the top of
the thumb screw with the Allen wrench.
