Transom Drill Fixture Assembly - SB-763

SUBJECT: TRANSOM DRILL FIXTURE ASSEMBLY - 75 H.P., PART NO. 378253

Illustrated here is a very practical transom drill fixture for correctly spacing the mounting bracket holes for the 75 H.P. model V4S and V4SL series engines. It also facilitates drilling holes perpendicular to the transom which eliminates the probability of drilling off-angle holes. This feature allows bracket bolt heads and nuts to seat flat on transom and mounting bracket surfaces. It is also simpler to use than the acetate template packed with each engine. Instructions are included with each fixture assembly. Price is $3.50 each, net, F.O.B. Galesburg, Illinois.

In using this fixture, be particularly certain to 1) locate and mark accurate center lines on transoms; 2) check transom heights and alter, if required, to the dimensions specified in the instructions, i.e., 15" to 15½" for the standard length engines, 20" to 20½" for long shaft engines; 3) exercise care in firmly securing fixture to transom prior to the drilling operation in order to avoid fixture shifting and misalignment of mounting holes; and 4) use a good waterproof compound as a sealer to accomplish water tightness of the completed bracket installation. Closely follow the instructions included with the fixture.
