15.2 EQUIPMENT
15.2.1 Gangway
Description
- The gangway allows you to embark/disembark easily when the boat is moored stern on to the pontoon.
- The gangway is hydraulic; telescopic (adjustable length); fixed.
- The gangway control is situated in the cockpit.
- The gangway is comprised of the external part and a hydraulic unit situated in the engine compartment.
- A control box situated on the hydraulic unit prevents accidental operation of the control panel. As a precaution it is
advised to leave it on the "AUTO" setting.
- The hydraulic pump controlled by the electric motor is situated under the hydraulic unit reservoir. The motor has a speed
regulator: it controls the speed at which the gangway moves.
- The gangway can also serve as a davit for lifting out the tender.
Operation
- The gangway runs on DC power.
- A breaker protects the electrical circuit.
- The gangway motor is designed to run continuously for a maximum of 4 minutes. After this the motor will cut out
automatically (risk of overheating).
Maintenance
- Wash the gangway off regularly with clean water.
- Its location at the stern of the boat makes the gangway particularly prone to fouling due to the exhaust gases: clean the
fouled areas regularly with a non-abrasive detergent.
- Check the oil level in the hydraulic unit once a year.
- Regualrly check the connections which could loosen with vibration.
- Do not use the gangway when at sea.
- Never manoeuvre the gangway with anyone
on it, below it or within its arc of movement.
- Do not use the gangway as a diving board.
- Refer to the manufacturer's instructions for
use and maintenance.
- Maximum load permitted on gangway:
110 kg.
- Telescopic gangway: Ensure that the
stanchions are correctly seated in their sockets
before recovering the gangway.
- Manual operation prevents the position
sensors from working: the electronics are no
longer able to correct the alignment of the
gangway if it is not retracting correctly into its
housing. Use this procedure with caution.
