WARNING! Do not drive the boat at high speeds with the engine trimmed up
(bow up) as there is a risk of sudden heeling when the propeller
hits the water again after a flight in heavy waves. Likewise, do not
drive at high speed with the engine completely trimmed down
(bow down) since this can cause the boat to pitch unexpectedly
when the bow hits the water.
WARNING! Waves reduce manoeuvrability and make the boat heel. Take this
into account by reducing speed when encountering heavier seas.
5.9.5 Starting the engine
1. Switch the power on using the main switch.
2. Lower the engine to the driving position by pressing the Power Trim button on the
gear/throttle handle.
3. Check that the gear/throttle handle is in the neutral position and that the emergency
switch is attached to the bottom of the remote control.
4. Switch on the current, using the start key, without starting the engine and wait a few
seconds for the warning lights to light up.
5. Start the engine by turning the ignition key clockwise, until it starts. If everything is in
order, the engine should start within 1-2 seconds. If the engine does not start, you
should not try to start it for more than 10 seconds at a time.
6. After the engine has started, let it idle for a few minutes before setting off. (Please
refer to the engine manual!).
For more detailed information, please refer to the engine manual.
5.9.6 Driving
It is easy to drive when the weather is fine and the sea calm. However, always remember to
keep an adequate lookout. In order to maintain the best possible visibility from the driver's
position, you should:
-
Ensure that passengers do not restrict your visibility.
-
Not drive near planing speed for long periods, as the bow will come up and reduce
visibility.
-
Look over the windshield when visibility is poor.
-
Remember to also keep a lookout behind you, particularly on shipping lanes and
heavily trafficked routes.
NOTE! Use navigation lights in darkness.
