2023 OWNER’S MANUAL

Always reinstall the locking
mechanism on both sides
of the Z6 immediately after
raising or lowering the tower.
Failure to do so could result
in the collapse of the tower,
causing serious injury or
death. The tower could also be
damaged if left upright or down
without the pins fully locked
and secured.
When setting up the Z6 tower,
it is sometimes advisable
to receive assistance from
another individual. Depending
on the weight of the tower,
assistance may reduce the
chances of damaging the tower
or the boat itself. In general,
you should exercise caution
when lifting any
MasterCraft tower.
THE Z6 TOWER
• Whereas the Z8 and Z10 towers both rely on hydraulic systems
to facilitate the process of raising and lowering, the Z6 is the
only model in the series which uses a lock-pin mechanism and
which requires full manual operation when raising or lowering.
• The Z6 locks into place using a quick release lock-pin. After
disengaging the lock-pin, the user applies upward force to bring
the tower into standing position. Once the tower is upright, the
user reinserts the lock-pin to firmly secure the tower.
To raise the Z6 tower:
• Disengage both lock-pins in order to unlock the tower.
• With the lock-pins disengaged, apply upward pressure to the
tower header until the tower stands upright.
• Insert the pins once the tower reaches standing position.
To lower the Z6 tower:
• Remove all boards from the board racks. Fold the racks to the
inward position.
• Remove the lock-pins from either side of the tower. To prevent
binding, you may find it necessary to place some slight upward
force on the center of the tower.
• With the pins loose, put gentle downward pressure on the top
of the tower until it reaches the down position. Note: The tower
will fall if not appropriately handled while lowering. Be prepared
to support the tower’s weight for the entirety of the set-up
procedure, from standing to resting position.
• Reinsert the pins to secure the tower.
The tower will fall if not appropriately handled while lowering. Be
prepared to support the tower’s weight for the entirety of the set-
up procedure, from standing to resting position. Damage inflicted
by mishandling of the tower may not be covered under warranty.
Follow the instructions as stated in this manual.
