In case of an accident, or if a lot of water (more than 35 liters) got into the boat, the
automatic pump is switched on and the water is removed from the intrashell space over-
board. The pump is equipped with a return valve hindering coming outside water into the
boat through the outlet connection.
The automatic pump can be maintained and repaired through the inspection hatch
which is behind the hatch of the console, which is installed under a demountable cov-
er of the middle niche. The pump should be maintained in case of clogging of the suction
strainer and the maintenance is cleaning the strainer of garbage. The pump should be
maintained at last once a season. To exclude the clogging of the suction strainer of the
automatic pump, it is necessary to clean the filtration sewage box of sand and garbage
each time after the use of the boat on water.
5.3 Battery charge level indicator
At the top of the console there is a LED indicator that indicates the charge level of the
battery.
Active indicator warns about the presence of voltage in the circuit. The battery charge
level indicator is specially intended for the monitoring of the battery charge state when
using the boat.
The LED indicator informs the navigator of the E.motion boat about the battery charge
state and recommends the following actions.
•
Green LEDs – the batteries are charged, the navigation range is without restrictions.
•
Yellow LEDs – the batteries are half charged, it is necessary to navigate closer to the
destination.
•
Red LEDs – the batteries are discharged, it is necessary to immediately move to the
destination. There is a minimum cruising range (250 – 500 m).
If the batteries are discharged completely, it is recommended to switch off the power
supply at the boat, having pulled off the bracket with emergency switch cord.
If after complete discharge of the batteries you have not reached the destination,
for the further movement it is necessary to use oars or services of a tower.
5.4 Emergency power switch
The electric boat is equipped with an emergency power switch assembly with a brack-
et on a cord. Emergency switch cord is designed for an emergency stop of engines (in case
the ship driver is overboard) and for power shut down. Power supply is turned off and the
engines stop working as soon as the bracket, attached to the end of the emergency cord
is pulled off the emergency switch. When the motors run, the emergency cord must be se-
curely attached to the wrist or the life jacket of the ship driver.
Warning:
If the emergency switch cord is not properly connected to the ship driver, then
in case when the ship driver falls overboard, the boat will completely go out of
control.
