  • Page 44: Power Trim

    Operation Power Trim Your Volvo Penta sterndrive is equipped with a hydrau- lic trim system – Power Trim – that makes it possible to adjust the drive angle in relation to the transom from the helm station. Drive angle influences the boat's attitude under way, e.g.
  • Page 45 Operation Digital trim instrument The trim instrument shows the drive trim position. The sterndrive trim angle is indicated in relation to the hori- zontal. The lowest value shows that the sterndrive is trimmed down to the maximum, and the highest value that the stern drive is trimmed up to the maximum.
  • Page 46 Operation Trim control The sterndrive can be trimmed with the Power Trim panel, or with the aid of the button on the control lever; on twin installations there is a trim control for each sterndrive. The trim panel is used for both single and twin installations.
  • Page 47 Boat stability and steering characteristics can also vary depending on sea conditions. If your boat displays instability and / or self-steering tendencies, contact your Volvo Penta dealer to have it remedied.
  • Page 48 Operation At planing speed Trim the drive to the angle that provides the most sta- ble and comfortable running. If the boat has a twin in- stallation the drives can be trimmed at different angles to compensate for sidewinds and to a certain extent counteract uneven loading.

  • Page 49: Stopping The Engine

    Stopping the engine The engine must be run for a few minutes at idle (in neutral) before it is stopped. This prevents boiling and evens out temperatures.

IMPORTANT! Oil change intervals can vary from 100 to 200 hours, depending on oil grade and sulphur content of the fuel.
  • Page 56 Maintenance: Lubrication system Oil level. Checking and topping up The oil level should be within the marked area on the dipstick and should be checked every day before the first time the engine is started. Topping up is done on the top of the engine. Top up oil slowly.
  • Page 57 Maintenance: Lubrication system Engine oil. Change Always observe the recommended oil change interval. IMPORTANT! Only use the recommended grade of oil. WARNING! Working with, or going close to a running engine is a safety risk. Watch out for ro- tating components and hot surfaces. WARNING! Hot oil and hot surfaces can cause burns.

  • Page 58: Freshwater System

    The coolant should contain ethylene glycol of a good quality with a suitable chemical consistency for an ade- quate protection of the engine. Using anti-corrosion aditive exclusively is not permitted in Volvo Penta’s engines. Never use water by itself as coolant.
  • Page 59 (-18°F). (Using 60 % glycol lowers the freezing point to -54 °C (-65°F)). Never mix more than 60 % con- centrate (Volvo Penta Coolant) in the cooling liquid, this will give reduced cooling effect and increase the risk of overheating, and will give reduced freezing protection.
  • Page 60 Maintenance: Freshwater system Checking the coolant level WARNING! Stop the engine and allow it to cool before opening the filler cap. Steam or hot cool- ant may spurt out. Hot coolant and hot surfaces can cause burns. 1. Turn the filler cap slowly counter clockwise and let any pressure escape from the system before re- moving the cap.

  • Page 61: Raw Water System

    Seawater system The seawater system is the boat’s external cooling system. The seawater pump draws in water via the water intake through the oil cooler to the seawater pump, after which the water is pumped through the intercooler and heat exchanger. Finally, the water is pumped into the exhaust pipe elbow, where it is mixed with the exhaust gases.
  • Page 62 Maintenance: Seawater system Seawater system. Cleaning and inhibiting To prevent the build up of deposits and salt crystals in the seawater system it must be flushed with freshwa- ter. When the boat is laid up it must also be inhibited. WARNING! Risk of water penetration.
  • Page 63 Maintenance: Seawater system Cleaning seawater filter WARNING! Risk for water penetration. IMPORTANT! If the boat is used in water that has a lot of contaminants, seaweed etc. the filter must be checked more frequently than indicated in the maintenance schedule. Otherwise there is a risk the filter will clog and the engine will over- heat.

  • Page 64: Fuel System

    Fuel system The engine fuel system is a so-called common rail-system. The advantage of the common rail-system is that the engine control unit controls the timing and fuel amount, this mean better emission control and a smooth running engine. All work on the engine common rail-system must be carried out at an authorized workshop. Use only the recom- mended grade of fuel, please refer to “Technical Data”.
  • Page 65 Maintenance: Fuel system Bleeding the fuel system , early design (filter bracket with bleeding screw) The fuel system must be bled e.g. after changing fuel filters, if the fuel tank has been run dry and after long stops.
