O'Brien 2101118 Waterskis User Manual


 
LINE-LOCK ADJUSTABLE FIN:
The Line-Lock Adjustable Fin features a 3 point adjustment system to allow exact n
positioning in any direction. The Line-Lock Fin is easily adjusted by loosening the 3
set screws, positioning the blade in the desired position and then tightening the 3 set
screws. O’Brien slaloms equipped with the Line-Lock n are pre-set with the best
overall n position for that ski. Before adjusting the n from the stock setting it is rec-
ommended to mark that position on your n so that it can be easily positioned back to
stock. Please refer to the chart below for suggested n adjustments to help maximize
the performance of your ski. Remember small adjustments will signicantly change
how your ski performs.
A.R.C.
(Adjustable Radius Control) FIN: The A.R.C. Fin features a performance blade with
elliptical slotted screw holes for customized horizontal adjustments. The A.R.C. Fin is
easily adjusted by loosening the 6 phillips head screws on the top of the n, position-
ing the blade either further forward or back, and then re-tightening the 6 phillips head
screws. Before changing from the stock setting it is recommended to mark that posi-
tion on your n so that it can be easily positioned back to stock.
