You may want to use the full-length hull support bracket as a straight-edge to align the tanks. The hull support bracket is used in a later step.
  • Page 14 3. Perform Steps 6(b) and (c). Verify equal length diagonals as you build from tank Set 1 to tank Set 5 as shown below to ensure they are square. 4. After confirming the lift is square and all assembly for Steps 6(b) and (c) are completed, tighten all hardware completely.

NOTE: Use a good mooring rope with enough strength for the size of boat and lift being installed.
