Monster Tower, Inc. - 5 Year Warranty

 - Monster Tower warrants that for a period of 5 years from the date the tower is sold at 

retail, that Monster Tower will repair directly, or supply parts for the repair of any material cracks, fractures or structural failures that 

are a result of a manufacturing defect.  Anodizing and powder coated surfaces as well as all hardware corrosion are specifically 

excluded as their care and use cannot be controlled by Monster Tower.  Any modifications or improper use, not approved in writing 

by Monster Tower, shall void this warranty.  Monster Tower is not responsible for personal injury or damage to the boat or other 

items caused by the use of this tower.  Monster Tower’s obligation under this warranty shall not include any transportation charges 

or costs of installation or any liability for direct, indirect or consequential damages resulting from delay or improper installation of the 

tower.  Instead of reading all this fine print, get your tower on the boat and go ride!  No dealer, retailer or manufacturer is the agent 

of Monster Tower and may not assume for Monster Tower any liability in connection with this warranty.  This warranty is in lieu of all

APPENDIX A -  

Wiring Instructions for your Monster Tower 

 

If you add speakers or lights to your Monster Tower, you can hide the wires inside of the rear legs of the 

tower as well as in the straight cross member of the top section.  Since the mating parts insert ½” inside 

each end of the rear leg you can drill 1” away from the weld lines.  For the top section cross member you 

will need to place the hole 3” from the weld line to clear the rotating collar assembly.  The hole size will 

depend on what size wire you are running and how many items you need to wire.  The maximum hole 

size we recommend is ½” but normally smaller is all that is needed.
