Thruster Operation
EN
Take time to practice operation in open water to become familiar with the thruster and to avoid damages to your boat or people.
How to use a Bow Thruster
1. Turn on the main power switch for the bow thruster. (NB: Always turn off the main power switch when not onboard.)
2. Turn on the control panel by pushing both “ON” buttons on the original Side-Power panel simultaneously.
(NB: If another type of control is
installed, push the On/Off switch for the bow thruster.)
*Turn off the control panel by pushing both “OFF” button
4. To Turn the bow in the desired direction push the red button for port movement or the green button for starboard.
- For joystick control, move the joystick in the direction you wish the bow to move.
-Other controls like footswitches or toggle-switches on the throttle can be used. Engage the port control, the bow will turn to port etc.
5. Depending on the sideways speed of the bow, you must disengage the control device shortly before the bow is in the desired position.
(NB: The
boat will continue to move after disengaging the thruster control.)
How to use a single stern thruster
Due to space limitations, a vessel may only have a stern thruster. In this case, the stern thruster is used in the same way as a single bow thruster
for moving the boat’s stern. Follow the above instruction for operation use.
How to use a combined bow and stern thruster
The combination of a bow and stern thruster off ers total manoeuvrability to the boat and the ability to move the bow and the stern separately from each
other. This enables you to move the boat sideways in both directions and turn the boat around its axis 360º staying stationary.
NB: At any signifi cant cruising speed (+1-2 kn) the side thruster will have little eff ect to steer the vessel.
