Engines equipped with catalyst exhaust manifolds that may produce
an unusual odor. This is typical of engines with a catalytic converter
exhaust system. If you are uncertain about any odor, do not hesitate
to contact an authorized Axis dealer for assistance in determining the
cause and potential for concern.
The boat is also equipped with a natural air-intake that forces air through a ventilation
system on the deck of the boat. This channels air from the bilge to the transom vent.
With proper maintenance, which is the responsibility of the boat owner and/or operator, the
ventilation system works eiciently and protects the people on-board from dangerous fumes.
Follow the maintenance requirements as indicated in the Care and Maintenance section of this
Owner’s Manual.
Never operate the boat if you or anyone on board suspects that the exhaust or fuel system
is not performing as designed.
Models: All models are equipped with a blower system.
Another critical component in the safe operation of the boat is a properly func-
tioning bilge system. The bilge is a void between the deck and hull in which unin-
tended water accumulates as it is drained from other areas of the boat. (It does not
include the water in the ballast system, which is deliberately added to the boat and
must be dealt with separately.)
As noted in the Care and Maintenance section of this Owner’s Manual, the bilge
should be routinely checked, and drained as necessary. The automatic function will
often keep the system free of excess water. Too much water in the system can af-
fect the boat’s handling under operation, and can potentially swamp a boat, causing
damage to other components in the bilge compartment.
