Hardware
Most of the metal hardware on your boat consists of brass, stainless steel, or aluminum
and should be cleaned on a periodic basis with soap and water. In fresh water, metal
fittings and hardware should be sprayed regularly with a rust inhibitor, and after every
use in saltwater.
DO NOT use cleaners that are not intended for use on stainless steel. Glass, tile, counter
or citrus cleaners can damage hardware permanently. Always follow cleaning, by
applying a high-quality metal polish or automotive wax after cleaning. Test products in
an inconspicuous area before applying to the complete surface, especially if you are not
familiar with the product.
All metal parts, including but not limited to tower accessories, board racks or speaker
cans, should be cleaned with mild soap and water frequently and waxed periodically. A
corrosion protectant is highly recommended on these components for use in areas of
salt/brackish water. Pitting or oxidation is not covered under warranty. Pitting is not the
same as separation.

Wedge

The Axis Auto-Set Wedge foil is a solid, one piece, welded
design constructed from solid stainless steel. The wedge
foil does not lock in the down position. It is designed to
move up or down freely and locate in the down position.
To lower wedge unit, depress spring loaded pins and lower
foil. Be sure to raise and lock foil in the up position each
time after use.
If your boat is equipped with the Wedge option, you will
find that the unit has two positions - DOWN or UP. To
adjust wedge position, access wedge through the swim
platform door.
Ensure both spring loaded pins
are engaged before taking off.
!
Excessive speeds over 25 MPH could cause adverse handling
conditions. It is recommended that you put the Wedge unit in
!
the UP position if you will be traveling over these speeds.
