2016 OWNERS MANUAL / 0243
ATTITUDE ADJUSTMENT PLATE
Models
Standard on the X20, X23, X26, X46 and XStar. All others Xseries
and NXT models, as an option.
Purpose
When used properly, the plate improves the ride, reduces drag,
increases speed and improves the fuel efficiency of the boat.
Location
The attitude adjustment plate is permanently attached to the
boat’s stern, below the waterline. Control is by way of either the
video display (and explained more fully in the Video Display Gauges
section of this Owner’s Manual) or by manual switches located on
the driver’s armrest.
Operation
The operation of the attitude adjustment plates is basic. The plate
is mounted with the actuator on the transom of the boat. When the
plate is lowered, the water flow is redirected, creating an upward
force at the boat’s stern. When the stern rises, the bow will lower.
Since these actuators are electromechanical, they provide an im-
mediate response at the touch of the switch. (The attitude adjust-
ment plate can also be controlled through the Video Display Gauge.)
Press and hold up to have the center tab come up. Pressing down
on the switch will lower the plate/tabs.
(See GEN2 Wake Shaping Device information immediately following
for boats equipped with both for information on how those tabs are
operated.)
