If the temperature gauge reads abnormally high,
stop the engine immediately. Check the drive unit’s
water inlets for blockage. If the inlets are open,
have your authorized Cobalt dealer service the
engine.
Shifting/Running
Follow these guidelines when shifting your boat:
• Pause in the NEUTRAL position before shifting
from FORWARD to REVERSE, or REVERSE
to FORWARD.
• Avoid shifting into REVERSE while the boat is
traveling forward at speed.
• Keep the control area clean and clear of
obstructions.
Steering
Your Cobalt boat is equipped with a tilt steering
wheel. Adjust the tilt position by grasping the levers
on both sides of the wheel.
Pulling the levers toward you will unlock the
steering wheel to achieve a comfortable position.
1 – Release Lever
The steering system must be working correctly and
properly maintained. Be sure to:
• Keep mooring lines, tow lines and other
obstructions clear of the steering system.
• Keep the steering system’s moving parts clean
and lubricated.
• Regularly inspect the steering system for
kinks, damage and corrosion.
Refer to
Basic Maneuvering
, in this section, for
additional steering information.
CAUTION
Avoid injury, swamping the boat or
taking water in over the transom. Go
slowly when traversing in reverse.
A
DANGER
Avoid injury or death. The steering
system is the most important system in
the entire boat from a safety standpoint.
The boat’s steering system is not
self-centering. Propeller torque, trim
setting, water condition and boat speed
affect the steering. Constant attention to
the steering system is required for safe
operation. Have the system inspected
and maintained on a quarterly basis by a
qualified service technician.
A
WARNING
Avoid loss of control and/or injury. Do
not adjust the steering wheel tilt
position while the boat is moving.
Sudden boat movement may cause loss
of balance resulting in loss of control.
