Sealing off the tank in an emergency situation
In case a leakage occurs in the fuel system or if there is a fire in the engine room, the supply to the
engine can be shut by means of a valve.
1.4. Steering system
The helm is set in motion by means of the two steering wheels in the cockpit.
The tiller and the gearing can be accessed through the hatch in the stern part of the cockpit.
The rudder spindle is set in motion by the concentric mounting of the hydraulic cylinder.
Note: Take care that your helm operates free from play, but also that
it is not sluggish.
If there is a failure in the steering system, you can operate the rudder with the emergency tiller.
To steer using the emergency tiller, proceed as follows:
Open both rudder spaces and check the steering mechanism.
Remove the cap for the emergency tiller on deck.
Take the emergency tiller from the mounting in the room beneath the cockpit and insert it in
the mounting on deck.
Steer on deck.
Attention
In case of failure of the steering system
Head to the wind
Mount the emergency tiller as described above.
Note
The helm room is not a stowage place for equipment or other objects.
Moveable components of the helm should be treated with water-resistant greases within the scope
of winter overhauling.
1.5. Electrical systems
The boat possesses two electrical systems: 12 V direct current and 230 V alternating current.
Information on the scope and the equipment can be found in the operating instructions and the
contract specification. Take note of the operating instructions that include circuit diagrams for the
electrical systems and devices!
The electrical systems can be switched and controlled via the respective central control panels.
Attention! When operating the engine the main switches may not be
switched off, since this would destroy the diodes of the generator.
