Your MTK uses many common parts and design features that make
it a ordable, adjustable, and easy to install. There are four main
components - Top Section, Right Leg, Left Leg and Adjustable
Mounting Bases. The Top Section has pivot points that allow
the Legs to swing inboard and outboard adjusting to
di erent boat widths. An important part of the
installation is drilling holes in the tower to lock the
legs into a position custom t to your boat. Quick
Release Knobs allow you to fold the tower for
storage. You can choose whether your tower
will fold to the front or to the back of your boat.
The Mounting Bases have multiple pivots that
allow mountingyour tower most anywhere
on your boat, the top, sides and most any
angle. The MTK has many features for a
custom t on your boat. Following all
the installation instructions will give
you a professional, "dealer
installed" look.

IMPORTANT NOTES FOR INSTALLING, MAINTAINING AND USING YOUR NEW MTK
For a High Quality, Trouble Free Installation, read the entire Installation Manual completely before you begin.
Monster Tower has documented forces on arches exceeding of 300 ft./lbs. under normal wakeboarding conditions. Dynamic
forces can exceed 10 G on "double-ups". These forces are transferred into the deck of the boat. Monster Tower REQUIRES
reinforcement to be installed under the deck by a quali ed installer who can take your boat's individual mounting situation into
account. Every boat, every mounting location and con guration is unique and needs to be assesed by a berglass
professional to ensure the forces generated from towing do not cause damage to the deck and other areas of your boat.
Monster Tower is not responsible for damages.
30 HOUR SERVICE/MAINTAINENCE- Torque all M10 and M12 bolts to 22 ft-lbs and check M8 bolts for secure t into deck.
After each of the rst few uses, re-torque all hardware as stated above. Check regularly and every 30 hours of use.
Leave the protective plastic packing material on the legs and top section, removing it only as needed. This protects your boat
and the tower during installation.
Do not use power nut drivers to run bolts. Always turn by hand to prevent the bolts from heating up.
Note that after drilling the locking holes in the top section, the tower leg span (width) is permanantly set and cannot be
moved to another boat unless it has the same width.
The tower is silent by design. If you hear any rattling or noise, check all hardware for tightness, especially the heim joint jam
nuts. Call us at 877-778-6937 if you continue to hear any rattling or noise before using the tower. This means
something is not installed correctly.
Visit the support information page at MonsterTower.com for more information, including details on customer installations.
IMPORTANT: USE PROVIDED ANTI-SEIZE (IN FOIL PACKET) ON ALL BOLTS
If you are not completely satistied in any way with your new MTK, please contact us immediately.
