– not for the storage of personal equipment.
Maximum platform weight capacity is 800 pounds.
Use the release lever to release the ladder and
telescope to full length. Lift ladder to retract and
stow. Place release lever in the LOCK position. Use
caution when stowing the ladder to prevent
pinching fingers.

DANGER
Avoid potential injury or ejection of
occupants. Do not stand while driving
above engine idle speeds and make sure
all passengers are seated and seats are
in a locked/secured position when the
boat is underway.
A
WARNING
Avoid the possibility of injury or death.
The boarding ladder is attached to the
boarding platform. Do not occupy the
platform or use the ladder when the
engine is running or engaged. Propeller
contact or exposure to carbon monoxide
(CO) can cause severe injury or death.
All gasoline engines produce carbon
monoxide (CO). CO is colorless,
odorless and dangerous. Direct and
prolonged exposure to CO will cause
brain damage or death. The stern drive
unit and the propeller have many sharp
edges.
