2021 OWNERS MANUAL / 266
The boat should never be towed with the tower in the downward
position as the tower cannot be locked in the down position.
Do not tow a boat equipped with the ZFT2 tower in the down
position. Towing a boat equipped with the ZFT2 tower in the down
position could result in damage to the tower, the boat, the trailer or
the tow vehicle.
Depending upon the total aggregate weight of the tower and any
installed accessories, it is advisable to have a second person assist
in steadying the tower during the raising and lowering process.
• Get one hand knob started and threaded much of the way in.
NOTE: If the threads don’t start easily, it could be that the tower
is in a slight bind. Back o the hand knob or lightly bump the
tower/foot to free the bind before continuing to tighten.
• If you have two (2) people, starting and tightening together
is easiest.
• Start the second hand knob and tighten until it is snug.
• On the other (original side), put a moderate amount of forward
pressure on the tower header while torquing the hand knob tight.
• Repeat the previous step on the second side. Note: These last
two steps are important to ensure that the tower does not come
loose during operation.
Lowering and Raising the ZFT2 Tower
The ZFT2 tower uses a hand screw mechanism to secure the tower
in the upright position. When unscrewed the tower will support itself
upright on a built in shock. It will need to be manually lowered.
To lower the tower:
1. Remove all boards from the board racks and fold the board racks
to the inward position.
2. Unscrew the two hand screws on either side of the tower (some
upward force on the center of the tower may be necessary to
prevent the screws from binding).
3. With the hand screws loose, put gentle downward pressure on
the top of the tower. The shocks will assist in lowering the tower.
