PDQ 36 Capella - Owner’s Manual
PROPULSION AND STEERING 3
Auxiliary Engines 3-1
“Classic” Outboards
The “Classic” auxiliary engines are Yamaha 9.9 HP outboards, specially developed for
auxiliary use. They are located under the cockpit lockers, and are raised and lowered by
ropes in the cockpit. All controls for starting, gear-shifting and motor speed are located
at the helm. Emergency stop is provided at the controls by a plastic key on a red
lanyard.
The engines are 4-cycle, and oil is
not
added to the gasoline. Oil is carried in the engine
sump, and the level should be checked, topped up and changed as recommended in the
motor manual.
A breaker for the starter circuit and a fuse for the charging circuit are located in each
outboard compartment.
Please read the manuals provided by the manufacturer before use of motors and prior to
carrying out any maintenance. The motors will work better and last longer.
Caution:
Incorrect operation or failure to perform required
maintenance might jeopardize the manufacturer’s
warranty.
Before starting the motors, make sure that the mounts are tight, and that the mounting
screws are securely tied off. Check the electrical and fuel connections.
When inserting the starter keys, make sure that each key goes into the correct ignition
lock. (You may simplify this by colour-coding the port and starboard keys with red and
green tape or a key tag) Do not try to force the key, as this may damage the ignition
lock.
