NGINE CONTROLS AND INSTRUMENTATION
The engine controls and the instrumentation will vary depending on the engine brand
and model, thus it is covered by the engine owner’s manual. Typical locations of controls
and instruments are shown in chapter 7, figure 3.
Gas and gear throttle
This control is used for controlling the gear and has 3 positions (forward, neutral,
backward). To shift it in neutral while engine is running, the engine rpm must be at idle.
In neutral, there is a lock button to allow the rpm to increased, for instance for engine
warm-up or tests. See engine manual.
Power trim and tilt
At one side of the tip of the throttle handle, there are 2 buttons. One will raise the
engine, the other lower the engine. This function is a combined trim & tilt functions.
The power tilt (power lift) allows you to raise and lower the engine for trailering and
launching the boat and to keep the engine out of water while moored at port. The
power tilt is activated automatically when the engine is raised outside the trim
(operation) angles.
The same control is also used for the power trim. At the lower range of the engine
movement angles, the power trim allows you to adjust the engine angle to create the
optimum boat trim (raise/lower the bow), see chapter 2.6.
Engine Instrumentation
All modern engines are equipped with several sensors, allowing useful information and
alarms to be displayed at instruments placed at the console. Examples are engine
temperature, rpm, trim angles, fuel filter problems, oil levels and general alarms.
Depending on the engine brand, model and options, the information can either be
displayed on a separate engine control display mounted on the console (standard) or be
displayed on the plotter/depth finder display (option), or both.
Due to the different possibilities to install and customize the displays, you need to study
the engine and engine instrumentation manuals. They are to be provided by the Ockelbo
dealer or other company who installed engine and instruments. Understanding the
instruments will ensure that you use the engine in the most optimal, economic and safe
way.
For complete instructions on operation and maintenance, we refer to the separate OEM
owner’s manual that was developed specifically for this equipment. It is provided with the
Ockelbo document bag.
