Important Notes:
•Please seek professional installation if you are not
comfortable installing yourself.
•Under no circumstances should person/s or animal be
allowed in watercraft whether loading, or in stored position.
•Do not add additional gear, etc. that may subject the
watercraft to be over the maximum weight capacity.
•Rinse with freshwater after each use, as saltwater and other
contaminants can cause staining, even though we use the
most corrosion resistant materials. A periodic thin coat of
corrosion proof spray can also help protect the metal parts.
•Not intended for use in extreme conditions (ie: high forces
from water, wind, etc)
•Not following any of the above may result in damage, loss
and/or serious injury
