UDDERS
Some Dagger touring kayaks have a rudder
fitted. Rudders are operated by the foot
brace pedals which slide forward and back,
controlling the angle of the rudder.
RUDDER INSTALLATION
1
The rudder assembly is stored in the rear hatch.
Remove the split-ring and plastic washer from
the pintle (rudder post). Insert the pintle into the
vertical hole of the gudgeon (moulded-in rudder
mount). Replace the washer and split-ring.
Attach the rudder cables. To do this, thread the
2
'D'-shackles through the holes on each side of
the rudder assembly and re-tighten the pins.

RUDDER OPERATION
Sit in the kayak and check the footbrace pedal
positions. The pedals should be adjusted to
fit the length of your legs and equal distances
from the seat. Once adjusted, any slack in the
rudder cables should be removed by tightening
at the footbrace.
