AFTER EACH USE:
Fully extend ladder and thoroughly rinse all ladder and slide surfaces
with fresh water. Pay special attention to flushing any debris and salt
water from the slide areas.
MONTHLY:
Examine the ladder slide grooves and remove any foreign particles
lodged within the grooves.
Wash entire ladder, uning ONLY a clean, soft cloth, and mild soap solution.
Rinse thoroughly with fresh water. To prevent damage NEVER USE
ABRASIVES or ABRASIVE CLEANERS!
Allow ladder to dry after washing. Apply a light coating of spray lubricant or
clear silicone grease to the slide areas ONLY. Work ladder back and forth
to assure distribution of lubricant and ease of operation.
CAUTION - TO PREVENT THE POSSIBILITY OF PERSONAL INJURY,
ENSURE THAT ANY LUBRICANT IS CLEANED FROM LADDER RUNGS
AND STILES PRIOR TO USE.
Inspect the ladder for damage and check the security of all fasteners.

! DANGER
! WARNING
CARBON MONOXIDE CAN BE FATAL In all gasoline powered boats, engine exhaust systems
produce colorless, odorless carbon monoxide gas (’CO’) Direct prolonged exposure can result in
CO poisoning which may be harmful or fatal. to prevent excess exposure and reduce the possibility of
accumulations of CO in the boat, the operator should include adequate ventilation through utilization of cabin
hatches and walk-through windshields to increase air movement through the boat. The following conditions tend
to increase the accumulation of CO in and about the boat and require the operator’s particular attention:
INDICATIONS OF EXCESSIVE EXPOSURE TO ‘CO’ CONCENTRATIONS MAY INCLUDE NAUSEA, DIZZINESS, HEADACHE AND DROWSINESS.
Operation at slow speeds or dead in water. Utilization of canvas tops, side curtains or back curtains.
Any blockage of hull exhaust outlets.
Operation with a high bow angle attitude. Operation of engines and/or generator in confined spaces or at dockside.
Contributing climatic conditions, such as headwind.
AVOID RISK OF INJURY OR DEATH. SHUTOFF ENGINE NEAR SWIMMERS OR PRIOR TO USING SWIM PLATFORM, SUNPAD OR BOARDING LADDER.
USE CAUTION WITH SKIER IN TOW AS ROPE MAY BACKLASH INTO COCKPIT WHEN RELEASED
AVOID COLLISIONS - Maintain lookout as required by “Rules of the Road”. Visibility can be limited
by high boat trim angles, persons and gear. Such issues are considered under the control of the operator.
NOTICE: It is recommended that all occupants wear approved Personal Flotation Devices (PFD’s).
