Chapter 8: Freedom 375
Bow Thruster
The bow thruster aids in maneuvering your boat. The outboard engines can control the direction
of the stern while the bow thruster moves the bow. Use the joystick control located at the helm to
control the bow thruster by pushing the joystick in the direction you want the bow to move. The
emergency shut-off switch provides a simple method to quickly disconnect power from the bow
thruster motor. Depress this button to disengage the bow thruster in the event of an emergency.
C A U T I O N
To avoid damaging the sheer pin in the bow thruster lower unit, do not engage the thruster
when the propeller is not submerged. Also, do not suddenly change direction of thrust without
allowing the propeller time to stop.
Bow Thruster Charger
This single bank battery charger is located beneath the starboard helm seat. The generator
must be running or the shore power must be connected for the charger to work. To activate the
charger, turn the “Bow Thruster Charger” switch on the AC panel to the “on” position. The charger
has a built-in isolator that senses the charging needs of the bow thruster battery and delivers
charge accordingly (maximum output of 6A). There is a 10A in-line fuse in the positive charging lead
to the battery. If the charger appears to be operating normally but the battery does not recharge,
check this fuse and replace as necessary. At the point that the battery is nearly fully restored, the
charger will automatically reduce the current being sent to a maintenance level. See this charger’s
Operation Manual in your Owner’s Packet for further information on the charger.
Cabin Lights
The “Cabin Lights” switch on the DC panel supplies power to all lighting in the port and
starboard cabins. This switch must be on in addition to the “DC Main” switch for any lights to
function. The switch for the port cabin recessed lighting is located on the TV cabinet at the entrance
of the cabin. In the aft berth is a wall mounted light that can be operated individually by a switch on
the light fixture itself. In the starboard cabin, the switch for the recessed lighting is located next to
the AC/DC panel. The lights surrounding the mirror may be operated separately with a switch
located just below the mirror.
