become unstable and could fall on individuals, or become
dislodged while towing if the tower is upright. Failure to
turn the handle until it tops when unlatching the tower can
cause latch damage by failing to activate the cam inside the
latch. This could result in damage that may not be covered
under warranty, and you will be unable to lock that side
of the tower when it is in the UP position. This is poten-
tial very dangerous and could result in the tower falling
on individuals on-board. Also, in opening and closing the
lever, take care to avoid pinching fingers, hands or parts of
the body.
To raise or lower the tower, Malibu strongly recommends
a second person to help steady the tower into position. The
tower's weight could cause loss of control, resulting in damage to the
boat or potential injury to person(s).

The standard tower on
Wakesetters is the G3.5
tower. The G3.5 can be
raised to its full height

On each interior side
of the tower legs is a large
lever. During operation,
the lever must be secured
on each side as shown, in
the locked position.
Always ensure that the lever
on each side is secure prior

warranty, and/or injury to people in range of the tower's
movement.
Models: The G3.5 tower is standard on all Wakesetter models.
It can be deleted by the purchaser at the time of order. Due to the
complexity of mounting the tower, and how critical it is to the boat's
stability that it be mounted in the proper location, as well as require-
ments for any electrical wiring, Malibu does not recommend the
addition of a tower and tower accessories after the boat has been
delivered. Adding any tower other than a Malibu-built tower to a boat
will void the warranty. If Malibu tower accessories are added to the
tower after the build process, it may be necessary to upgrade the
internal tower shock absorbers to accept the additional weight and
perform as designed. This kind of upgrade should be done only by an
authorized Malibu dealer.
