Towers
Models:
All. Boats are equipped with the
ZFT0 tower, the ZFT4 tower or the ZFT5
tower, except when optionally deleted at
the time the boat order is placed.
Purpose:
Towers add a whole new dimension
of appealing boating enjoyment. Because
of their versatility in adding wakeboard-
ing, music and lighting to the experience,
many boat owners consider towers to be
an important addition to their boat.
Location:
Towers are generally located mid-
ship. On each model, a careful and thor-
ough testing program was conducted by
MasterCraft engineers to ensure maxi-
mum benet as well as proper balance
for the boat. This is extremely impor-
tant and it is why MasterCraft strongly
discourages the addition of aftermarket
towers. Boat owners are strongly urged
to purchase towers and tower accesso-
ries only through an authorized Master-
Craft dealer. In fact, installation of any
tower that is not specied and installed
by MasterCraft may void your warranty.
Operation:
Again, MasterCraft strongly encourag-
es the occupants of the boat to review the
Common Sense Approach and the Safety
sections of this Owner’s Manual prior to
use of the boat and the tower component.
1) The ZFT0 tower (above) is an upright,
xed tower. The towers can be lowered
by removing two bolts, the front boat on
either side of the tower.
Depending upon the total aggregate
weight of the tower and any installed ac-
cessories, it is advisable to have a sec-
ond person assist in steadying the tower
during the raising and lowering process
on the ZFT0 tower.
2) The ZFT4 tower (below) can be manual-
ly raised or lowered (for storage or ease
of towing over the road.) The locking
mechanisms located on each side of the
tower are pulled out to allow the tower
to raise or lower.
Always reinstall the locking mechanism on
both sides of the ZFT4 tower immediately
afer raising or lowering the tower. Failure
to do so could result in damage to the tower
or collapse of the tower, which could result
in serious injury or death.
