indicating a over heat condition, if the gauge or alarm indicates a over heat condition, immediately
shut the engine off, lift the drive and inspect water intakes for obstructions such as aquatic
vegetation or mud. After finding the source of the overheating, restart engine and confirm water
flow, if water does not flow within five seconds shut the engine off.
Volt
The volt meter indicates battery voltage; normal reading is between 12 to 15.5 volts. A low reading
indicates too heavy of a load or a dysfunction in the charging system. Too high of a voltage
indicates a fault of the charging circuitry and continued operation will damage the battery.
Tachometer
The tachometer indicates the revolutions per minute (RPM) of your engine. Do not operate the
engine beyond the limits stated in your engine manual. Abnormally low tach. readings (for a given
throttle setting) indicates loss of power, or an prop entangled with weeds or trash; check the prop
first. A reading higher than normal indicates a ventilating or cavitating prop, or prop/ drive
damage.
Speedometer
The speedometer indicates the speed of your boat in Miles per hour (MPH).
The gauge operates by sensing water impact pressure from the pitot tube mounted on the transom.
(or integrated into the lower drive unit of the motor). If the gauge fails to give a reading, suspect a
blocked pickup.
Trim
The trim gauge indicates the in (down) and out (up) position of the drive unit in relation to the hull.
(see Trimming your boat p.18 )
