1 INTRODUCTION
First of all, we would like to thank you for choosing the XForce Thruster. Engbo AS has for several years
supplied Volvo Penta with thrusters, distributed as QL thrusters through Volvo Penta dealers and distributors. In
late 2006, Engbo and Volvo Penta agreed that distributing through two channels and brand names would make
our thrusters even more available. Together with Engbo anchoring and mooring systems, the thrusters
constitute a complete system for manoeuvring and mooring your vessel. The control units on both thrusters and
winches are based on the same modules, which makes it possible to manoeuvre and anchor using one single
wireless remote control.
To achieve maximum benefit from your XForce thruster, please study this manual thoroughly before installing
and making use of the thruster panels. Keep this manual onboard. Do not hesitate to contact us if you have any
questions.
Best regards,
Engbo AS
