For complete instructions on operation and maintenance, we refer to the separate OEM
owner’s manual that was developed specifically for this equipment. It is provided with the
Anytec document bag.
2.5 STARTING THE BOAT
2.5.1 Starting the engine
Read the engine owner’s manual carefully, as the boat may be equipped with several
engine brands and models.
Ensure that there are no fuel or oil leaks in or around the engine.
Check that the main power switch is turned on (for location and function, refer chapter
5.4).
Make sure the engine gear shift is in the neutral position (propeller should not rotate
when engine starts) and that the engine propeller is submerged properly in water, away
from any objects or persons.
Start the engine according to the manufacturer's owner’s manual. If the engine does not
start, or functions poorly, check for instructions in the manual. If unsuccessful, contact
your engine dealer (in most cases it is your Anytec dealer).
2.5.2 After starting the engine
Check the cooling water control beam, to ensure that the cooling system is working
properly (visible just below the engine hood, well above water level). If water does not
flow out after start, then engine overheating can cause severe engine damage.
Your engine is equipped with visual and sonic alarms for critical malfunctions such as
overheating. Read the engine manual to understand these alarms. If alarm goes off, turn
off the engine immediately and check the possible reason as per the manual. Contact the
nearest Engine/Anytec dealer if the problem continues.
Do not turn off the main power switch while the engine is running and ensure that no
exhaust fumes get inside the boat or endanger others.
2.5.3 Leaving shore
The crew releases each mooring rope etc., as per your instructions. Make sure mooring
ropes or other ropes does not tangle with the propeller.
Ask crew to be seated as soon as possible after leaving mooring position. For seating
positions refer chapter 3.6.
The emergency shutdown switch
Attach the lanyard of the emergency switch (refer chapter 2.2) to your hand or foot,
immediately after loosening the mooring ropes. More specific instructions can be found
