Clamping Spinner Board Racks or Ski Rack
These aerospace-grade, anodized-aluminum swivel racks are
corrosion-resistant and ratchet down with a slight tug on the single
lever, securing the wake items. Be sure that boards are securely in
place prior to operating the boat, as they can become projectiles if
they are not. Also, remove boards and stow inside the boat before
trailering. Highway speeds can cause damage even if the boards are
secure on the rack.
The ski rack accommodates two slalom skis with easy-access
bungee forks to free up storage areas onboard. The ski racks can be
mounted on either the port or starboard side of the tower, or on both.
Secure boards and/or skis on the rack prior
to operating the boat. If they are not secure,
the boards and/or skis may come off the
rack and become projectiles that could damage the boat or hurt individ
-
uals. Remove them from the racks and stow in the boat when trailering.
Even if secured on the racks, highway speed can cause damage to the
boards, skis, tower or boat, or even cause them to become loosened
from the racks. Spinner racks should be locked prior to towing.
Mounting Wakeboard on Clamping/Pivoting Racks:
• Pivot the rack inward by pulling down on the pivot release knob
and moving the rack to the inward position. It will lock in place.
• Place the board in either the top or bottom slot and center the
weight of the board in the middle of the rack.
• After the board is in the proper position in the rack, gently pull
down on the left and right clamping fork handles simultaneously
until the board is secure.
• Pull down on the pivot release knob again and pivot the rack to
the outward position until it locks in place.
NOTE: The rack can pivot and lock in three positions: inward, cen-
ter, and outward.
Removing the Wakeboards on Clamping/Pivoting Racks:
• Pivot the rack inward by pulling down on the pivot release knob
and moving the rack to the inward position. It will lock in place.
• Press the clamping release buttons to release both clamping fork
handles.
• Remove the board from the rack.
• Pull down the pivot release knob again and pivot the rack to the
outward position until it locks in place.
IMPORTANT: Before pulling into a dock, be sure to swivel racks
inward to prevent damage to racks and the dock!
G5 Tower Mirror
Housed in an aluminum billet with an adjustable arm, the op-
tional mirror offers high-definition, prescription grade optics with a
140-degree field of view.
The mirror is adjustable by way of a clamp on the tower. The mir-
ror should be removed and stowed in a storage compartment inside
the boat if the boat will be towed any substantial distance.
Models: These accessories are available as options on all Wake-
setter models. They may be supplied as part of a package.
GX Tower Mister
GX towers have the option to be equipped with Malibu’s revolu-
tionary integrated tower mister to help keep you comfortable all
summer long. To properly assemble and prepare this feature for use
as well as how to properly prepare this feature for winter storage
please follow the instructions outlined below.
Preparing for Use:
• Ensure the reservoir is installed in the port under seat storage,
secured with three draw latches, all plumbing connected, and
filled with fresh, clean, debris-free water.
• The Tower Mister is activated from a button located on the port
side of the tower plate.
• When using the tower mister for the first time each season run
the system without nozzles for one minute to purge any air or
debris from water lines.
• Install all nozzles and ensure the system functions as intended.•
Nozzles are initially shipped in the glove box.
• Inspect and refill reservoir water after each use using fresh,
clean, debris-free water.
IMPORTANT: Always use fresh, clean, debris-free water. Failure
to use clean water will result in poor performance or damaged com-
ponents.
Preparing for Storage (Winterizing):
• Disconnect the plumbing from the reservoir. This can be done
with a 3/8” wrench.
• Unplug the pump at the Delphi link.
• Release draw latches and remove the reservoir. Store reservoir
in an area protected from freezing temperatures.
