EMERGENCY STOP SWITCH
The stop switch will cut off the engine when the stop switch line is pulled out. This line can be attached
to the body of the operator, effectively preventing injuries from the propeller in case he/she falls
overboard.
We highly recommend use of stop switch line because it can save the life of the operator if
something bad happens
.
However, we would also like to point out the drawbacks of the switch. Accidental
activation of the switch (such as the line being pulled out in heavy seas) could cause passengers to lose their
balance and even fall overboard, or it could result in loss of power in heavy seas, strong currents, or high
winds. Loss of control while mooring is another potential hazard. To prevent such hazardous situations, the
500 mm line is coiled and can be extended to a full 1,300 mm
.
WARNINGS
As the operator/driver of the boat, you are responsible for the safety of those aboard and those in other
crafts around yours. Therefore you should possess thorough knowledge of correct operation of the
Rubber Inflatable Boat (Wing/Zodiac), its accessories, and the Raider engine. To learn about the correct
operation and maintenance of the engine, please read through this manual carefully.
It is very difficult for a soldier standing or floating in the water to take evasive action should he or she see
a power boat heading
in
his/her direction, even at a slow speed. Therefore, when your boat is in the
immediate vicinity of people in the water to be picked up care should be used. A Safety Jet option (jet
pump) from Raider is available and especially useful for training purposes.
SERIOUS INJURY IS LIKELY IF A PERSON IN THE WATER MAKES CONTACT WITH A MOVING BOAT, GEAR
HOUSING, PROPELLER, OR ANY SOLID DEVICE RIGIDLY ATTACHED TO A BOAT OR GEAR HOUSING.
Prior to any mission some individual must be assigned to perform all safety checks and to ensure that all
lubrication and maintenance instructions are complied with for safe operation. Periodic maintenance
should be performed.
Correct periodic maintenance and good care of this outboard engine will lessen the
chance of problems and keep overall performance of missions successful.
A
CAUTION
Failure to observe could result in minor personal injury or product or
property damage.
