WINDSCREEN WIPERS
The boat’s windscreen wipers are controlled by the switches in the boat’s steering
console. When pushed forward, the wipers wipe only once, and when pulled
back, they wipe continuously. A switch for the windscreen washer is installed
next to the switch for the windscreen wipers. The windscreen wash-fluid tank is
located under the helmsman’s seat.
3.1.2 STEERING SYSTEM
CHECKING AND TOPPING UP OIL
The safety of the boat depends on effective steering, so the oil level in the pump
should be checked before casting off.
Hydraulic oil is added to the steering system via the filling plug in the steering
wheel pump. The oil level must be approx. 10 mm below the filler hole. Read
the manufacturers manual for oil recommendation for the steering system. (For
steering systems provided by engine manufacturer read the engine manufac
-
turers instructions).
MAINTENANCE OF THE STEERING
Check couplings, mountings and bearings. For maintenance of the steering
system: See the manufacturer’s instruction manual.

Risk of carbon monoxide poisoning. It is important to be aware of the
risks with engine exhausts. Under certain conditions (e.g. turbulence
or disadvantageous wind conditions), exhaust can enter the boat. If
this happens you should avoid idling the engines. Should these prob-
lems occur under way, do not open hatches and ventilators, as this can
worsen the problems. Instead, a solution to the problem might be to
change the boat’s speed or weight distribution for example.
DANGER!
