Bow Thruster - Quicksilver 905WE Owner's Manual

Quicksilver 905WE — System & Component Overview and Operation
Operation
To operate the windlass, the windlass breaker, located near the battery switch panel, must be turned
ON. Operation of the windlass at the helm is controlled by a momentary switch used to raise and
lower the anchor. Pushing down on the switch will lower the anchor, while pushing up on the switch
raises the anchor. Similarly, using the handheld remote control key fob, pushing on the down switch
will lower the anchor, while pushing the up on the switch will raise the anchor.
Built in to the stern windlass is an auto stop function that shuts the motor down once the anchor is
fully retracted and in the stored position on the anchor roller. Mounted on the transom, the leaded
core rope goes through a mounting plate containing sensors. A red auto stop located at the end of the
rope will automatically shut the windlass off when it comes in contact with the sensors in the
mounting plate.
11. Bow Thruster (optional)
The electric bow thruster assists with the maneuvering of your vessel when docking. Access to the
motor is via the forward berth storage area, while the battery and battery switch is located under the
forward interior liner floor access panel.
Operation from the helm
To operate the thruster, you first must turn the thruster battery switch to the ON position. At the
helm, press the on/off switch on the control panel. An LED will flash and a buzzer will sound
continuously. Press the on/off switch again within 6 seconds . The system will confirm that it is ready
for use when the LED light remains green and the buzzer sounds twice.
