Some platforms feature a bracket, which allows the platform to fold down, reducing the amount of room required for storage. Note that the platforms themselves are fairly heavy, and releasing the bracket may result in the platform falling down and striking the transom with excessive force. Please provide support to the platform at the time of releasing the bracket, and slowly lower the platform into place for towing or storage.

Many 2009 models are equipped with a swim platform that may be folded down. To deter- mine whether the boat is so equipped, look beneath the platform and see if the bracket with pin appears as in the photo. If so, the swim platform can be folded. To do so properly, follow these instructions:

Folding Down the Platform

Remove the safety hinge pins in each swim platform bracket.

Begin by lifting the platform about four (4) inches upward while easing the platform away from the boat transom. This will allow the platform to move freely on the hinge.

NOTE: Ensure there is no tightness while the swim platform is being folded. There should be no binding during this action.

The platform must be raised and locked into position for trans- portation of the boat, as well as use of the platform while boat- ing. Leaving the platform down may result in damage to the boat transom during transport that will not be covered by the warranty!

Securing the Platform

Step 1: Lift the platform to approximately 20 degrees angle from the boat.

Step 2: Lightly push the platform (do not shove nor jam) to- ward the transom to allow the platform to set in place.

Step 3: Verify that the platform is in the locked position and will not fall down. Failure to verify that the platform is locked may result in the platform falling while some- one is on it and could result in injury.

Step 4: Insert one (1) safety hinge pin into each platform bracket as shown in the top photo.

The platform must be raised and locked into position for use of the platform while boating. No one should be allowed on the plat- form until the platform is securely locked in place and the engine is OFF. Failure to do so may result in serious injury or death!

Tables

If the cockpit table option was selected for the applicable mod- els, the table can be removed and stored. In doing so, ensure that the table and leg are secure in a storage compartment. If they are left out on the deck of the boat, they may shift or move and cause injury. Stored away, they should also be situated so that the metal top and bottom of the leg cannot rub against the table top and cause scratches. This type of damage will not be covered under warranty.

The bow table option on the CSX 265 does not remove for stor- age. Therefore, care should be taken to clean it regularly and avoid damage from spray or UV rays.

See the Cleaning the Boat section of this Owner’s Manual for information on cleaning the surfaces of all tables.
