  • Page 17: Chapter 1: Propulsion System

    PROPULSION SYSTEM 2670 Console Cuddy 1.1 General The Pursuit 2670 Console Cuddy is designed to be powered with twin 2-cycle or 4-cycle outboard motors. 4-cycle outboard engines do not use an oil injection system and are not equipped with remote oil tanks.

  • Page 18: Corrosion

    DO NOT PAINT THE OUTBOARD MOTORS WITH ANTIFOULING PAINTS DE- SIGNED FOR BOAT HULLS. MANY OF THESE PAINTS CAN CAUSE SEVERE DAM- AGE TO THE ENGINES. CONTACT YOUR PURSUIT DEALER OR ENGINE MANU- FACTURER FOR INFORMATION ON THE PROPER PAINTING PROCEDURES.

  • Page 19: Engine Cooling System

    The propellers convert the engine’s power into thrust. They come in a variety of styles, diameters and pitches. The one that will best suit the needs of your Pursuit will depend somewhat on your application and expected average load. Propeller sizes are identified by two numbers stamped on the prop in sequence.

  • Page 23: Chapter 2: Helm Control Systems

    Controls The helm on your Pursuit is designed for a binnacle style control with a single lever for each engine that operates as a gear shift and a throttle. General operation will include a position for neutral (straight up and down), a forward position (the 1st detent forward of neutral), and a reverse position (the 1st detent aft of neutral).

  • Page 24: Neutral Safety Switch

    If the engine will not start, slight movement of the shift lever may be necessary to locate the neutral position and disengage the safety cutout switch. Control or cable adjustments may be required to correct this condition should it persist. See your Pursuit dealer for necessary control and cable adjustments.
