• Boat stands should only be used on firm surface where surrunding conditions (like weather) never affect
the stability.
• Position the stands according to the boat manufactuers recomendations, normaly a pair of stands for every
2,6–3,3 meter (8–10 feet).
• The entire weight of the boat should be borne by the keel support, not by the stands.
• The keel support should be placed depending on the weight distribution of the boat.
• Safety chain should always be used to secure the stands to each other.
• Never tie anything to the stands (like cover). In heavy wind the stands might be pulled away.
• This users guide should always be followed for best results and safety.
