Turn the battery switch ON, and wait five (5) seconds for power up.
Push the button on the side of
the GX tower to turn on power
to the tower and allow five (5)
seconds before continuing.
When there is power at the tow-
er location, the light will be ON.
Rotate the adjacent knob coun-
terclockwise to raise the tower.
Rotate the knob clockwise to
lower the tower.
When neither raising nor lowering the
GX tower, turn the power to the tower
OFF. Leaving the power on will make the tower susceptible to raising or
lower unexpectedly if the knob is accidentally moved in either direction. In
the process, the tower could hit individuals onboard the boat in the deck area, potentially causing seri-
ous injury.
Models: (Optional) All Wakesetter models.
Tower Accessories
Following are descriptions of a variety of optional accessories that can be added to the G3.5 tower, depend -
ing on packages and availability. It is important to note that the towers were designed to accommodate only the
specified options. Other aftermarket options may not work properly due to the electrical harness requirements.
The towers can also hold only a limited amount of weight. Exceeding that limit can cause failure of the tower,
which could lead to injury to people on board or people using the tower to ski or wakeboard. No additional
weight should ever be added to the tower.
No components should be added to the Malibu tower beyond what is spec-
ified by the company. Other aftermarket items may not be acceptable due
to electrical, electronic or other wiring and power-related issues. The tower
weight limit may be exceeded by adding aftermarket items. Such weight
limits can also cause the tower to fail, which could result in damage that is not covered under warranty,
