GENERAL TOWER CARE & MAINTENANCE
This product is to be used for the sole purpose of wakeboarding, wakesurng, hydrofoiling, and
kneeboarding (rope handle sports). Do not attach devices like inatable tubes.
The tower is intended to tow a maximum of two wake boarders at one time and no more than 400lbs
(181kg) collectively.
Check all tower hardware before every use on the water. We recommend keeping a set of Allen
wrenches on your boat for this purpose. Verify that all bolts, screws, and nuts are tight. Even with
threadlocker they may loosen over time.
Never attach a tow rope to anything other than the tow head.
Do not use the board racks as entry/exit handles to get in and out of the boat – they are not designed
for this purpose.
Never hang from the tower. Do not climb or sit on the tower.
Be aware of the tow rope at all times. Ensure that it is not attached to anything on the tower other
than the tow head, and that the rope is clear of any cleats or objects on the boat before pulling the
rider up and out of the water.
Never travel at speeds in excess of 40mph / 64kmh (i.e. towing the boat on a trailer) or through
extremely rough water with wakeboards, wakesurfers, skis, etc. in the racks.
Never travel at speeds in excess of 40mph / 64kph (i.e. towing the boat on a trailer) or through
extremely rough water with the Bimini in it’s deployed state. ONLY travel with the bimini in it’s
folded state secured to the tower.
Be cautious when driving your boat on the water or on a trailer if you have board racks. They may
decrease your clearance into a garage or slip. Swivel your racks inboard when moving the boat.
Check the clearance between your tower and any overhead obstacles including bridges, canals etc.
NEVER USE CLEANERS ON YOUR TOWER OR ACCESSORIES!
The Bennington Tower has been treated with an automotive paint coating that forms a
protective layer. A mild soap and water combination may be used to remove traveling grime or
water spots. Clean with each use. Use only a soft cloth and never use any chemical cleaners.
Treat as you would your vehicle. Wax to protect nish.
Happy Boating
