Location
The blower system is mostly unseen by those on-board. A two-posi-
tion switch activates the engine box ventilation blower, and it is lo-
cated on the dash panel. The engine compartment blower exhausts
fumes through vents located on the transom of the boat
Operation
X-series/ProStar:
Turn the switch to the right to turn the blower ON.
Turn the switch to the left to turn the blower OFF.
NXT:
Flip the toggle switch up to turn the blower ON. Flip the switch
down to turn the blower OFF.
XStar:
Push the toggle switch on the throttle panel up to turn the
blower ON. Flip the switch down to turn the blower OFF. The blower
will operate without the ignition key inserted and turned ON. The en-
gine does not have to be started and running in order for the blower
to work. Switches can be left on indefinitely to continuously allow
removal of fumes.
NOTE: Blower operation drains energy from the battery.
SPECIAL NOTE: The blower must operate for a minimum of four (4)
minutes before starting the engine at any time. The blower must
also be operated during idle and slow-speed running, but is not
necessary during cruising speed.
Troubleshooting
NEVER OPERATE THE BOAT IF THE BLOWER SYSTEM IS INOPER-
ABLE OR NOT WORKING PROPERLY. SEE THE DANGER WARNING
ABOVE.
The blower hums audibly when it is operating. If it is not function-
ing, turn the ignition key to ON and verify on the voltmeter that the
electrical system is charging at least 11.5 volts or higher. If it is not,
it will be necessary to recharge the battery(ies). See the electrical
information in this section of the Owner’s Manual for proper proce-
dure. If there is sufficient charge indicated, but the blower still is not
operating properly, DO NOT LAUNCH THE BOAT. Take the boat to an
authorized MasterCraft dealer for repair.
STEERING SYSTEM
Models
All
Purpose
The steering system controls the direction in which the boat moves.
Location
Except for the steering wheel and shift/throttle control at the helm,
the steering system is not visible under normal circumstances. In a
V-drive boat, the mechanism is located on the starboard side of the
engine compartment for models equipped with a cable system, or
on the port side for hydraulic steering system..
To lubricate the control mechanism on the standard system as part
of the annual maintenance (as described in the Care and Mainte-
nance section of this Owner’s Manual), locate the specific connec-
tion for your boat.
With the exception of the XStar, which is equipped with a fixed
steering wheel, steering wheels are mounted on a tilt mechanism
that allows adjustment of the steering wheel angle to meet the
needs and comfort of the operator. The system was designed to be
used by operators who are sitting down in the driver’s seat. Stand-
ing or manipulating the steering wheel in any other manner could
cause loss of control.
For most activities the boat operator should be seated at the helm
position. Some situations may require standing at the helm to
maintain visibility over the bow. When standing is necessary make
certain that the safety shut off lanyard is attached to your clothing
or PFD. Operating the boat while standing may result in a loss of
control which could cause serious injury or death.
See Shift/Throttle Control information elsewhere this section of the
Owner’s Manual.
Operation
The steering of a boat is very similar to that of a car or truck, but
it will generally respond less quickly due to operation in the water,
which is more dense than air. Read the Starting and Basic Opera-
tions information and Operational Hints that appear in the Prepara-
