3.1 CONTROLS
You will quickly learn how to control your YAMARIN 4730, but the ever changing weather
conditions like wind and waves will always present new challenges for the driver.
Along with the helm, the throttle is the most important control device on your boat. It combines
the following functions:
-
throttle adjustment
-
gear shift
-
trim angle adjustment
-
emergency stop switch
More detailed information can be found in the engine manual.
The wiring diagram is shown in chapter 5.
Function of the main switch (in the boat's battery compartment):
-
- switch forward
battery disconnected
-
- switch up
battery connected
When leaving the boat for a longer period, switch off the current from the main switch. We
also recommend that you open the seacock to enable the rain water draining system operate.
NOTE!
Never switch off the current when the engine is running! It may damage the
charger.
3.2 OTHER ACCESSORIES AND STANDARD EQUIPMENT
Use the enclosed manuals in order to become familiar with the other accessories.
3.3 DRIVING
Learn the nautical Rules of the Road for example from the professional litterature of seaways
and always follow them carefully. Navigate with care and use new or updated nautical charts.
Driving in fine weather and on calm sea is easy. Do not, however, forget the importance of
sufficient lookout. In order for the visibility from the driver's seat to be as good as possible:
-
place passengers so that they do not restrict your visibility
-
do not drive near planing speed for long periods, as driving bow up restricts visibility
-
when visibility is poor, look over the windscreen
-
keep a lookout also behind you, particularly on fairways.
Use proper navigation lights when it is dark.
