3 System Operation
3.1 Before each use
WARNING!
Failure to adhere to these warnings may result in loss of boat control,
leading to possible ejection from vessel; causing property damage,
personal injury and/or death.
1. Check your steering system.
If your vessel has a hydraulic steering system, ensure that the fluid level
is correct. Check that the steering responds immediately and correctly
when you turn the steering wheel(s), and that the hydraulic hoses move
freely through the range without snags or hang-ups.
2. Inspect all and mechanical cables and electrical harnesses for
wear, kinks, or damage.
Check all electrical harnesses and mechanical cabling for abrasion,
wear, rubbing or chafing. Check that all connections are tight and free
of corrosion.
3. Check for binding, loose or worn shift/throttle control
components.
Check all shift and throttle cables and harnesses for signs of wear,
damage or chafing. Check that all linkages and cables move freely and
are not binding or corroded.
4. Verify proper shift and throttle response for all control levers
Check that all shift and throttle levers operate freely and cause the
engines to shift accordingly. Put the engines in neutral idle mode and
confirm that the throttle responds correctly and returns to idle.
5. Verify that no faults or warnings are indicated on the Shift and
Throttle Control Head.
Rapidly flashing LEDs on the control head indicate that there is a
Warning or Danger fault. Refer to section 4 for more information.
WARNING!
Do not operate the boat if any component is not in proper working condition.
WARNING!
It is recommended the full system inspection be reviewed on a regular
basis to retain familiarity.
