Boating Technology By CRAFTSMAN MARINE 7
Operation 7
Opening and closing:
1. Shift the knob on the handles towards you, to unlock the handles
(drawing 4).
2. Turn the handle approximately 90 degrees, as shown in the picture.
3. Push the hatch open into the chosen position and tighten the knob
on the mechanical stay(s). Always tighten the stays firmly because
unexpected closing of the pane may do serious damage to body
parts that are in the way!(drawing 5)
4. The hatch can also be locked in the position shown in drawing 6, in
order to get an ideal ventilation position.
5. Keep all hatches firmly closed (but not locked up) while boating!
Make sure that all handles are in the unlocked position whilst sailing!
This allows access into the boat from outside in life threatening si-
tuations (the foregoing only applies if it concerns a full-sized escape
hatch.).
When the boat is left alone for a prolonged period of time, shift the
knob on the handles to the lock-up position, also when the ventilation
position of the escape hatch is selected. In doing so, you will minimize
the risk of breaking and entering!
