Engine Synchronizing Switch

(MariStar 280, X-80 and CSX 265)

This two-position switch allows the engines to operate in synchronization.

Do not engage the switch unless

the engines are running but still in neutral (for safety’s sake)! Prior to engaging the synchronizing switch,

ensure that you are in a large body of water. Avoid a tight cove or narrow river, and docks, dams or other ob-

jects that may protrude into the body of water. Be certain that there is a minimum of other vessels or traffic

as you will need room to perform this procedure.

Engaging the engine synchronization functionality requires practice to master. Because the boat will

be in gear and will move during the process, even after mastering the maneuver boat operators should
synchronize engines only on bodies of water of sufficient size to accomplish the maneuver without
making contact with other vessels or with inanimate objects, which could cause serious bodily injury or
significant damage to the boat.

The port engine will have an RPM blip after the Synch switch is activated and the throttle is moved to

wide-open throttle on the MariStar 280, X-80 and CSX 265. If the engine actually accelerates to wide-open
throttle, then the Synch function did not take control of the port engine. In this instance, reduce the speed and
return to Step 1.

The engines can be run at different levels of throttle BUT NOT WHEN UTILIZING THE SYNCH FUNCTION!

NOTE: DO NOT engage the Engine Synchronizing Switch when loading or unloading the boat from a trailer OR

when docking. These maneuvers require a sensitive touch.

Note: The MariStar 280 is equipped with a four-lever control. (See
above image.)

Step 1:

Start both engines. While at idle and in neutral (shifter
not moved), press up on the Synch switch to turn the
synchronization function ON.

Step 2:

Push the

port throttle

to wide-open throttle. There

will be a slight rise in RPMs to the engine (but the boat
should not move forward as the shifting and throttle
response are controlled with separate levers). With the
Synch switch ON, however, the engine will very quickly
return to idle.

Step 3:

Using the

starboard throttle

, run the boat up to the de-

sired speed. At this point, the system will begin functioning
with both engines in synch. The starboard throttle will con-
trol the speed for both engines as long as the synch switch
is ON.

Note: Before disengaging the synch functionality, move

ALL levers back to idle, beginning with the starboard throttle

and shifter, and then the port throttle and shifter. When the

boat returns to idle, the engine synchronizing switch can be

turned off. Failure to follow this procedure may result in erratic

handling of the boat, which may be beyond the boat operator’s

ability to handle.

CSX 265

The CSX 265 is equipped with a two-lever control. See above image.)

Step 1:

Start both engines. While at idle, press up on the Synch switch to turn the synchronization func-
tion ON.
