    MK has a model that the arrow indicates the direction of the foot. I don't remember what model it is though.

    The clamshell clamp that holds motor to boat?
    If its not moving at all, then something is broken correct?

    Right under the motor head on the front of the mount, there should be a clamp with a knob that will loosen, the you should be able to adjust the height and direction.
