  • Page 4 Compulsory directions according to the EU regulations This manual has been compiled to help you to operate your craft with safety and pleasure. It contains details of the craft, the equipment supplied or fitted, its systems and information on its operating and maintenance.
  • Page 5: Emergency Exits

    The recommended maximum number of persons on board is one person/meter hull length. Local or national regulations may stipulate other and specify life saving equipment. The folding bathing platforms on the Hallberg-Rassy 54 and 64 are designed to carry a maximum load of 200 respectively 250 kg.
  • Page 6 Introduction The delivery day is a great day, and we wish you good luck with your new Hallberg-Rassy. The delivery day is, however, a busy day when many things are happening. Things are easily missed and sometimes you forget what has been explained.
  • Page 7: Engine

    The engine There are unprotected rotating parts and belts in the engine compartment. Danger ! Make sure the engine controls are at ”STOP” position before commencing any work on the engine to minimise the risk of injury. The engine manufacturer manual is found at the end of this book. Engine break-in and running: More engines are damaged by slow running and by rust caused from poor winterising at lay up than overloading or due to many operating hours.
  • Page 8 Note ! If the engine hasn’t been used for a long period of time, especially after the winter, keep an eye on the cooling water pump impeller. Experience shows that failures most frequently happen after a longer period of non-use. It’s a good routine to "listen to the engine".
  • Page 9 The outer propeller shaft bearing is maintenance free in general. However, in very bad water conditions (sandy waters) there may be a need to replace the rubber bearing. In this case you have to dismount the propeller and two retaining screws on the sides. After this the rubber bearing can be pulled out with a suitable tool.
  • Page 10 How to fold a sailing propeller into sailing position First thing is to make sure weather you have a mechanical or hydraulic transmission. HR 310, 342, 372 and 37 have mechanical transmission. HR 40 and larger have hydraulic transmission. If you have mechanical transmission: When sailing: Stop the engine.
  • Page 11: Water And Diesel Tanks Hr 37 - Hr

    The water and Diesel tanks HR 37 - HR 43. If double tanks are fitted the tank gauge will always show the level in the lower tank. From the higher tank a pipe with a shut off valve leads to the lower. This valve should only be opened to drop the content of the upper tank down into the lower tank.
  • Page 12: Diesel Consumption And Range

    Never under-estimate the period of time the engine might be in use, always count with a safe margin. Remember that the tanks should never be run empty! Rough estimation for diesel consumption per hour (no responsibility taken): Hallberg-Rassy 310 1.9 litres Hallberg-Rassy 342 2.3 litres...

  • Page 15: Back Stay Tensioner

    The mast and the rig A detailed manual from the mast manufacturers Seldén Mast is attached. When sailing downwind with a risk for unintentional gibing, you shall use a preventer line. Please notice that this line must be lead from the aft end of Warning the boom (labelled “preventer only”) to one of the forward mooring cleats.
  • Page 16: Cutter Stay

    The cutter stay (HR 40-64) For extended crossing over open water and/or cruising in over 10 knots of true wind, you shall use the cutter stay on HR 54-HR 64. You attach the stay already in the harbour at the chain plate on the fore deck.
  • Page 17: The Sails

    The sails Sunlight affects the strength of all sail cloth. For this reason sails not in use should be protected by sail covers, if not furled. Mildew is not a problem for the strength of the sails but seams and laminated sails can be discoloured if stored or rolled wet.
  • Page 18 The batteries and charging Your batteries are an important part of your yacht and they need attention. Never forget that all capacity you take out you have to recharge and this takes a considerable amount of time. The number of batteries and equipment for charging is different for each type of boat and from boat to boat depending on optional equipment fitted.
  • Page 19: Self Discharge

    Self discharge You should consider the self discharge if you leave the boat unattended for a long time. Below 8° C the self discharge is nothing to speak of. The batteries will keep their charge for at least six months. At 15° to 20° C, such as autumn in the Mediterranean, it will give no problem. At temperatures over 20°...
  • Page 20: Electrical System

    Electrical System The Hallberg-Rassy yachts are equipped with a state of the art distributed power system for DC voltage (on the HR 310-HR 43 12 v, on the HR 48-HR64 12 v and 24 v), EmpirBus. A traditional system had circuit breakers at the Navstation. From each consumer (Pump etc) there was a wire to the helm station.
  • Page 21 Small key switch at the inner chart table Cuts out power 12V start, 12V and 24V service. Power to alarm, back flushing, bilge pump etc. will still work. Total power draw depends on the amount of options you have ordered. But please have in mind that the powers draw from alarms etc together with self discharge of the batteries requires that the batteries are recharged in case the boat is left unattended.
  • Page 22 If you would like to change the configuration file please note that it is code locked. If your boat is newer than 24 months only Hallberg-Rassy Varvs AB can make changes. For boats older than 24 months you may contact an EmpirBus dealer.
  • Page 23: Via Inverter

    230 V system via shore connection or diesel generator, HR 37 – HR 64 On board there is a main switch for the 230 V system with three or four positions, depending on equipment: ” SHORE ” = You get 230 V from shore power by the shore connection cable ”...
  • Page 24 Recommendations for use of generator and engine when sailing offshore Seawater may enter an engine if something is wrong with the anti-siphon breaker or the boat has been heeling at a greater angle than the exhaust system is designed for. The main engine is installed in the centre of the boat and is less sensitive in this respect compared with the diesel generator that always has to be installed off-center in the engine room.
  • Page 25 The water system and the water heater The water is drawn from the tank by an electric pump to the taps under pressure. Between the pump and the taps there is a pulsation damper and sometimes a water heater and a filter. The equaliser is filled with air and should not be opened or vented.
  • Page 26 The refrigerator The ice box has no drain, as it is only in this way that it is possible to keep the bilge clean. Make it a routine to clean the box at least once a week. The ideal temperature for keeping meat and some other food fresh is just over freezing point. Where two boxes are fitted, one is normally used as a freezer.
  • Page 27: Toilet

    The toilet Don't pump dry. Keep the valves for the outlet and the tank closed and the small lever to the right on the toilet on DRY when the toilet isn’t in actual use. If you forget that, flush water may penetrate the bowl and seals are exposed for overpressure, resulting in blackwater re-entering the bowl.
  • Page 28 Holding tank system Hallberg-Rassy 64 The manual bilge pump The manual bilge pump is of a membrane type, which means that no strainer is needed in the bilge. One condition is, however, that the bilge has to be kept relatively clean. Paper labels and larger objects must be avoided.
  • Page 29 The anchor windlass and chain Two things are important: • Always run the engine if an electric windlass is used. (To charge the batteries) • Lubricate regularly. Tighten the clutch only so much that the anchor will come over the roller, but no more. ALWAYS KEEP CLEAR OF THE CHAIN.
  • Page 30: Bow Thruster

    Stainless Steel Chain has many advantages. • It stores better in the anchor locker, which means you can carry more chain • It does not bring up as much dirt on deck • It has a higher breaking load than the standard galvanized chain •...
  • Page 31: Liquefied Petroleum Gas System

    The liquefied petroleum gas system Read the following advice thoroughly and handle your stove with care, Danger ! especially regarding liquefied petroleum gas. The stove is equipped with an automatic closing mechanism. This means that the gas supply is shut off automatically after approx.
  • Page 32: Compass

    Safety measurements to be taken to prevent gas leaks Warning - highly explosive ! Always be careful using a stove - specially a gas stove. DO NOT USE AN OPEN FLAME TO CHECK FOR LEAKS ! The stove flames consume oxygen and produce combustion gas. Ventilation is required when the stove is in use.
  • Page 33: Steering

    Warning! When going astern, please make sure you are holding the wheel or tiller firmly with your hands! The rudder will give a huge kick to the wheel/tiller when going astern and if you do not hold the wheel or tiller well, damages will occur to the steering system.
  • Page 34 Make sure that the horizontal bolt to the right in the picture below is well tightened. It is a clamping bolt so sufficient tension is essential for proper function Hallberg-Rassy 310 upper rudder shaft fitting...
  • Page 35 The emergency tiller may be connected to the rudder shaft directly. If you have an autopilot with drive directly on the steering quadrant, the autopilot will also work as an additional emergency steering. On the Hallberg-Rassy 54, there is a special rope arrangement, see sketch and photo below:...
  • Page 36: Autopilot

    Autopilot See manufacturer’s manual. If manual setting is possible, avoid a hasty operation, especially in heavy sea or when the boat is rolling to a swell in light wind. It is also recommended that the bolts securing the telescopic cylinder is checked after some time.
  • Page 37 The teak deck The teak deck is a part of your boats character. After a few weeks the teak will turn greyish, and a smooth silvery grey deck is probably what most people like to see. The reality is often something quite different.
  • Page 38: Antifouling Paint

    Oiled teak Environment protection Take care of left over oils and brushes .Use the intended containers . There is no doubt about the fact that oiling the teak will prevent dirt from soaking in and that it will stabilise the softer fibres. Teak oil is good, but the result is seldom beautiful. Some teak oils encourage the development of mildew.
  • Page 39: Electrolysis

    The carpets Again and again it has been confirmed that a boat with carpets is easier to keep clean than one without. Dirt and dust will unavoidably collect on the carpet, but it’s easy to keep clean with a vacuum cleaner. If you get spots on the carpet it’s mostly a question of oil or grease.

  • Page 43: Lifting And Supporting Ashore

    All Hallberg-Rassy yachts are designed to stand safely on the keel, supported on two cross beams under the keel. The hull laminate is so dimensioned that load from the keel when resting in winter storing ashore will not cause any damage.
  • Page 44 These sketches can just be seen as a rough guidance, since the distance of the slings, depending on the design of each individual crane, affects where to best put the slings.

  • Page 45: Risk Of Freezing

    Risk of freezing The risk of damage from freezing is less in the water than on land. In the water the boat will survive short spells with minus 5° C without problems. This is however not valid if you have a thermostat mixer for the shower armature.

  • Page 57: Lay Up Or Longer Stops

    Lay up or longer stops If the engine lies idle for more than two months it must be prepared. To run it in the harbour now and then is no advantage if it isn’t possible to put a load on the engine so it will be thoroughly heated. The 230 V shore connection should be left disconnected for longer stays.
