Bondar Posted January 31, 2015 Report Posted January 31, 2015 (edited) I have a pedestal seat in my boat for a butt seat up in the front of the boat, and the damn thing won't stay down anymore. I lean forward a bit and it's like an ejection seat shooting up like 8" and almost pushes me over the side of the boat! LOL Is there away to fix , adjust these things or do I just scrap it and buy a new one? Thanks for any help! Edited January 31, 2015 by Bondar
irishfield Posted January 31, 2015 Report Posted January 31, 2015 Sounds like it still has gas.... there should be an adjustment screw. Pull the seat off the pedestal. Turn the actuator screw in a turn or two. Sounds like when you sit on it the lever hits the screw shooting it up.
Garnet Posted January 31, 2015 Report Posted January 31, 2015 Hopefully the adjuster screw works. I had 4 of these power poles in my scrap pile from 30 years of bass boats. I bought the manual lock one that's in the current Bass Pro shop flyer on sale for $35. Problem solved. Easily adjust never breaks and half the cost.
moxie Posted January 31, 2015 Report Posted January 31, 2015 (edited) Same here. My boat has Swivel-eze 238 bases and since I haven't grown in over 20 yrs I purchased a fixed pedestal and not an issue since. Good luck. Edited January 31, 2015 by moxie
Bondar Posted January 31, 2015 Author Report Posted January 31, 2015 Thanks! I'll check the screw adjustment
