How to set up your Oar Board® Rower Unit
See the Video online at www.OarBoard.com
Step 1: Unpack the components and lift the unit out of the box; the carriage is already installed on the base.
Step 2: Take the seat and place it on the seat base aligning the three bolts with the three holes provided and press it into
position. Securely hand tighten the three wingnuts.
Step 1 Step 2
Step 3: To install the outriggers, remove the nylon wingnuts from the outrigger arms and resting the strut on the carriage,
plug the white nylon insert into the other arm. Push the four S.S. bolts firmly into the matching holes on the carriage.
Replace the wingnuts and tighten them.
*Note the oarlock/ pin assembly has been set up at the factory & does not need adjustment - the pitch of the Concept 2
oarlocks is 4%.
Step 3 Step 3
Step 4: Next position the strut arm using the larger bolt at the opposite end of the slider. Then mount the unit on the
board with the seat end of the unit at a point about 2 inches behind the lift handle or balance point of the board, and
centered in the middle of your board. You can fine tune the location with experience.
*Note - a little extra buoyancy forward makes for better rowing, especially into waves.

mirror locates on this fitting as well.

Velcro straps, and is held in position by the pin on each sid e. Make sure these pins are ful ly i nserted.
