Properly stow the bimini top in its boot and remove all boards from the board racks prior
to towing/trailering your boat. Speeds exceeding 50 MPH (80 km/h) with the bimini not
properly stowed may cause damage to the bimini top. Damage to the bimini from towing
while not stowed is not covered under warranty. Damaged or excessive wear to board
racks caused by towing or trailering with boards attached is not covered under warranty.

The tower is rated for a maximum of 130 lbs (58.9 kg) accessory weight and not more
than 600 lbs (272.1 kg) total rider weight. Exceeding these limits voids any structural
warranty pertaining to the tower. Approved activities for usage of the tower include
wakeboarding, wake skating, skiing or tubing.

Only factory pre-drilled holes should be used to install factory accessories on the tower.
The use of aftermarket accessories not supplied by Malibu Boats may cause damage not
covered by the tower warranty. Drilling any additional holes in the tower will void any
structural warranty.

Towers are configured with shocks to help stabilize the tower when the tower knobs/bolts
are removed for lowering the tower.

Appropriate care must be taken to ensure the tower is not allowed to fall.

Towers are configured from the factory with shocks based on the factory-installed
components. If ANY additional components are mounted to the tower after the boat
leaves the factory, it is the dealer and the consumer’s obligation to validate that the
installed shocks and the tower are rated for these additional components.

Hardware

Most of the metal hardware on your boat consists of brass, stainless steel, or aluminum
and should be cleaned on a periodic basis with soap and water. In fresh water, metal
fittings and hardware should be sprayed regularly with a rust inhibitor and after every use
in saltwater.

DO NOT use cleaners that are not intended for use on stainless steel. Glass, tile, counter
or citrus cleaners can damage hardware permanently. Always follow cleaning, by
applying a high-quality metal polish or automotive wax after cleaning. Test products in
an inconspicuous area before applying to the complete surface, especially if you are not
familiar with the product.

All metal parts, including but not limited to tower accessories, board racks or speaker
cans, should be cleaned with mild soap and water frequently and waxed periodically. A
corrosion protectant is highly recommended on these components, especially for use in
areas of or in proximity to salt/brackish water. Pitting, corrosion or oxidation is not
covered under warranty. Pitting is not the same as separation.
