2021 OWNERS MANUAL / 260
The platform must be raised and locked into position for
transportation of the boat, as well as use of the platform while
boating. Leaving the platform down may result in damage to the boat
transom during transport that will not be covered by the warranty.
Securing the Platform
Lift the platform to an angle of approximately 20 degrees from the
boat. Lightly push the platform (do not shove nor jam) toward the
transom to allow the platform to set in place.
Verify that the platform is in the locked position and will not fall
down. Failure to verify that the platform is locked may result in the
platform falling while someone is on it and could result in injury.
Insert one (1) safety hinge pin into each platform bracket.
The platform must be raised and locked into position. No one
should be allowed on the platform until the platform is securely
locked in place and the engine is OFF. Failure to do so may result in
serious injury or death!
NOTE: Platforms themselves are fairly heavy, and releasing the
bracket may result in the platform falling down, and thereby striking
the transom with excessive force. Please provide some kind of man-
ual support to the platform at the time of releasing the bracket, and
then slowly lower the platform into place for towing or storage.
NOTE: The attitude adjustment plate and GEN2 WSDs may also
need to be lowered prior to lowering the swim platform.
Folding Down the Platform
Remove the safety hinge pins in each swim platform bracket.
Begin by lifting the platform about four (4) inches upward while
easing the platform away from the boat transom. This will allow the
platform to move freely on the hinge.
NOTE: Ensure there is no tightness while the swim platform is
being folded. There should be no binding during this action.
