Exterior Equipment
To open the helm station, make sure the engines
are not running and hold the helm in the closed
position while another person releases the latches
that secure the helm inside the head compart-
ment. The latches are located behind the storage
compartment doors in the rear head compartment
bulkhead. Release the latches by pulling the
handles out and rotating them counterclockwise
until the latch releases. Then carefully lower the
helm to the full open position.
Notice:
The helm is heavy and could open unexpect -
edly when the last latch is released. This
could break the retainer straps or damage
the helm. Make sure you have someone
hold the helm closed while the latches are
released.
Close the helm by pushing it to the closed position
while another person secures the latches. The
twist lock compression latches that secure the
helm are equipped with handles that store flush
in the latch recess in the latched position. The
latch handle shafts are threaded to pull the pawl
and helm station to the console. Make sure to
twist the latch handles clockwise until they are
tight enough to hold the helm station firmly to the
console. Always make sure that helm is properly
closed and secured with both latches and that the
latch handles are folded flush in the recess before
operating the boat.
WARNING
ALWAYS MAKE SURE THE HELM STATION LATCHES ARE
PROPERLY SECURED WITH THE HANDLES FOLDED INTO THE
RECESS BEFORE OPERATING OR TRANSPORTING YOUR BOAT.
IF THE HELM STATION IS NOT PROPERLY SECURED, IT COULD
OPEN UNEXPECTEDLY AND DAMAGE THE BOAT OR CAUSE
LOSS OF CONTROL.
WARNING
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD THE HELM BE OPENED
WHEN THE ENGINE(S) ARE RUNNING. IN SOME SITUATIONS
IT IS POSSIBLE TO ACCIDENTALLY ENGAGE THE ENGINE
SHIFT CONTROLS INTO GEAR AND ADVANCE THE THROTTLES
AS THE HELM IS OPENING. THIS COULD RESULT IN LOSS
OF CONTROL, DAMAGE TO THE BOAT AND INJURY TO
PASSENGERS.

Windshield
Your boat is equipped with a tempered safety
glass windshield. The front and side panels are
also tempered safety glass.
The windshield slides down to provide ventilation
at the helm and/improved visibility. The wind-
shield is lowered and raised by hydraulic cylinders
on each side of the windshield. The cylinders are
activated by a electric hydraulic pump located in
the head compartment that is controlled by the
Windshield switch in the hardtop switch panel
above the helm. You should always monitor the
travel of the windshield as it is opened or closed
and be ready to release the switch immediately
when the windshield reaches the full up or full
