Steering System
It is important that you get the “feel” of your Axis boat’s steering system. Turn the wheel
from full left to full right, and make sure the rudder is turning accordingly. The system
should operate freely and smoothly. See Axis Exclusive Adjustable Rudder System in
Chapter 3 for rudder adjustment.
It is normal for your Axis steering to pull slightly to the right
under normal driving conditions.
Emergency Engine Stop Switch
The emergency stop switch attaches to the operator of the
boat and shuts down the engine if the operator is accidentally
forced away from the helm.
The switch consists of an ON/OFF switch and a switch
clip/lanyard clip, which is connected between the stop clip and
the operator. Should the operator move away from the controls,
the clip pulls free, flipping the switch to the OFF position and
stopping the engine. If the engine must be shut down quickly, a
pull on the lanyard cord to release the clip from the switch will
stop the engine.
To reset the switch after activation, reinstall the lanyard clip
and flip switch to the UP position.
Engine Compartment Fire Extinguisher
Your boat is equipped with a Fireboy
®
Fire Extinguishing System. The extinguisher is
mounted in the engine compartment.
The fire extinguishing system is activated when the key is turned to the ON position. An
indicator light mounted next to the emergency safety lanyard will illuminate green,
indicating the fire extinguishing system is activated.
