ramp angle. Set the parking brake and shift into park (automatic
transmission) or first gear (manual transmission). Shut o the
engine. Unlock the Ramp-N-Clamp (where equipped) latch and
winch hook; then back the boat o the trailer.
RELOADING THE TRAILER
To reload the boat on the trailer, simply reverse the above proce-
dures, including setting your Ramp-N-Clamp to the proper position,
and drive the boat onto the trailer at an extremely slow pace. Before
loading, clean any dirt or sand o the rollers and bunks. Sand on
these can be abrasive on the boat’s bottom while underway. Be sure
to back in and completely wet the trailer bunks, then pull forward to
the loading position. Be certain all the boat tie-downs are properly
fastened down before departing from the launching ramp area.
TRAILER DEPTH STICKERS
Models
All NXT, XT, X and Star Series trailers, excluding the X26 trailer.
Purpose
These stickers provide a visual indicator when loading and
unloading a boat at various boat ramp angles. Some boat ramps
have very flat launch angles and some ramps have very steep
launch angles. Under dierent ramp conditions the trailer will
need to be backed into the water deeper to minimize the collision
between trailer bunks and a boat’s hull bottom. Hard collisions can
damage trailer bunks, trailer bunk carpet and the boat’s hull bottom.
Location
Trailer depth stickers are mounted to the guide poles on the trailer.
Sticker height is model specific.
Operation
Trailer depth stickers are labeled for three dierent boat ramp
angles, STEEP, FLAT and NORMAL. On a STEEP ramp (12-15 degree
ramp angle) the trailer should be backed in until the STEEP sticker is
just below the water line. On a FLAT ramp (2-6 degree ramp angle)
the trailer should be backed in until the FLAT sticker is just below
the water line. On a NORMAL ramp (7-11 degree ramp angle) the
trailer should be backed in until the NORMAL sticker is just below
the water line.
NOTE: These are recommended depths as measured under condi-
tions at the factory-based lake. Adjustments may be necessary,
