5.9 Operation
If this is your first boat or a boat type new to you, take someone with experience of a similar
boat with you the first few times you operate it.
NOTE! The boat’s maximum propulsion power is 30 kW (40 hp). Do not
use the boat if its engine has a higher power rating than the one
given on the builder’s plate.
5.9.1 Controls
You will quickly learn how to control your boat, but changing weather conditions, such as
wind and waves, will always present new challenges for the driver. The remote control
combines the functions of throttle, forward and reverse gears, and the adjusting of the
engine trim angle.
5.9.2 Emergency switch
The emergency switch is a device with one end attached to the switch under the remote
control and the other end to your lifejacket, for instance. The emergency switch
automatically switches off the engine when detached from the remote control. It is very
important that the boat will come to a halt in the event that the driver, for whatever reason,
loses his/her balance and is flung from the helm.
NOTE! Never take control of the boat without having attached the
emergency switch to yourself. If you attach the emergency switch
to your arm, do not steer the boat with that arm, because the
emergency switch cord may become tangled in the steering wheel
during tight turns.
NOTE! The engine will not start if the emergency switch is not attached
to the switch on the remote control.
DANGER! A rotating propeller presents a life-threatening danger to a
swimmer or a person who has fallen overboard. Always use the
emergency switch to turn off the engine when a swimmer or
water skier is about to re-enter the boat from the water.
5.9.3 Gearshift and throttle
The engine is put into gear by pushing the button on the gear/throttle handle upwards with
your fingers and by pushing or pulling the gear/throttle lever forward or backward,
depending on the direction in which you are planning to go. When the engine is in gear, you
can adjust the boat’s speed using the same gear/throttle lever.
When the boat is travelling forward slowly, you can use the reverse gear for braking when
approaching the dock, for instance. You must not shift into reverse if the boat is travelling at
higher speeds, because it will damage the engine.
