Left side mounting shown, for right side
mounting See Step 5.
The lift should be installed with 6" of water above the
top of the bunks while the lift is in the lowered position.
This will provide adaquete clearence for launching
and docking of your watercraft and also help prevent
float off in the raised position during high wave conditions.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Watercraft must float freely over bunks before lifting. The weight of
the watercraft must never be on the lift when it is in it's lowest
position. Failure to follow this procedure may result in severe
damage to your lift and/or watercraft and will void your warranty.
