VERTICAL GUIDES
The FLOE vertical guide-in system is
designed to guide the boat by its rub
rail so it never touches or mars the
hull. It has an infinite adjustment range
limited only by the width of the lift, to
allow for a perfect fit. These are
available in pairs of double guides or
pairs of single guides.
See Figs. 42-43.
SELECTING YOUR
VERTICAL PVC GUIDE-INS
Technically, two pairs of single guides
would help safely guide the boat into
the lift. However, FLOE recommends
at least one pair of double guides for
the lift’s entry because this style has
two vertical guides mounted ahead of
the lift structure. The boat’s initial
impact with these outset guides will
slow it and start to guide the craft by its
rub rail before it even enters the lift.
Adjust guides so that they are
against your rub rail.
Always enter the lift slowly to avoid
any severe impact. Severe impact
could cause damage to the guide
system, lift or boat.

ADJUSTING THE GUIDES
1. With the guides on the lift, but not tightened, float the boat over the lift into its proper position.
2. Raise the lift platform until it holds the boat centered in place.
3. Slide the guides up to the boat’s rub rail.
4. Remove the boat.
5. Raise the lift platform and tighten the guides to 35 ft. lbs.
