THE Z10 TOWER
The Z10 features a hydraulic pump that allows the operator to raise
or lower the tower at the press of a button. It is controlled using a pair
of rocker switches found on the ignition pad. To raise the tower, press
and hold the TOWER UP switch, letting the internal hydraulic pump
raise the tower into the deployed position. To lower the tower, press
TOWER DOWN and let the tower decline. Always ensure the racks
have been swiveled fully inboard prior to operation.
If the Z8/Z10 have not been positioned fully upright, you should
not tow individuals. Doing so may result in injury or death.
When operating Z6, Z8, and Z10 towers, individuals should keep all
body parts, especially fingers, away from hinge areas.
Always ensure that there are no people, power lines, or objects in
the way when raising or lowering the tower. Individuals and their
limbs may be subject to injury if caught in the tower’s path. Please
note with special consideration that MasterCraft has carefully
determined the maximum amount of weight and total accessories
that the tower can safely hold. Ignoring this information could
result in injury to the operator and/or passengers.
85 pounds is the maximum aggregate weight allowed for
accessories mounted on the tower. Exceeding this restriction can
result in tower failure, which could cause serious injury or death to
the operator and/or passengers.
Occupants of the boat should never stand on, sit on, or jump from
the tower. MasterCraft towers should only be used for approved
sport towing. See the “Safety” chapter of this Owner’s Manual for
a list of approved activities.
