During Operation:
(1) All members of the crew should be equipped with, and wear, a PFD (personal flotation device,
eg life jacket, buoyancy aid). Please always wear a PFD when boating.
(2) Driver should always wear the kill cord (kill switch), by attachment of the lanyard to a secure
position on their wrist, ankle, or item of clothing (buoyancy aid, jacket etc). If the driver falls
overboard (or accidentally leaves the helm), the lanyard will pull the kill cord off the throttle
and stop the outboard.
(3) Watch carefully for other vessels, swimmers and other objects in the water. Proceed with
particular caution when near to harbour, shore or beach and avoid swimming areas if possible.
(4) If someone falls overboard, or there’s a collision, stop the outboard motor immediately (fastest
method is to pull kill switch off throttle).
1.4.4 Specific to this Motor:
(1) If the outboard motor has a significant impact with an object in the water, stop operation
immediately. Check outboard for damage and if you think it’s safe to operate return to the
nearest port at slow speed. If you don’t think it’s safe to operate call for assistance and a tow.
In either case please get an authorised ePropulsion dealer to inspect your motor before use
on future occasions.
(2) Only operate the outboard motor when the propeller is submerged in the water; operating it in
air is strictly prohibited.
(3) If the boat is powered by other means, such as sails, do not leave the outboard motor in the
water.
(4) Rinse the outboard with fresh water each time it’s been used in salt water.
(5) Always keep the charging and Type-c ports cover closing tightly. Clean the charger contacts
and USB socket with contact spray about every two months.
(6) Tilt the outboard motor up out of the water when not in use.
(7) If the outboard malfunctions, the display will show an error message and may either stop
or enter a reduced power mode. The most likely reason for malfunctions include: collision,
obstruction (eg seaweed or rope around the propeller), motor temperature too high, low
battery voltage.
