Basic Joystick Operation
The joystick offers precise, intuitive control of your boat during low speed and docking
maneuvers. The joystick translates the movement of the joystick into similar movement in
the boat. Engine speed is limited in this mode to prevent unacceptable boat dynamics
during maneuvers.
While operation with the joystick is easy to learn, we recommend that you drive the boat
in the traditional way until you can spend time in an open area free of obstructions and
traffic to learn how your boat responds to inputs. Further, we recommend that you
occasionally practice maneuvering in the traditional way to maintain your traditional drive
docking skills in case joystick control is temporarily not available.
Refer to Section 2—Maneuvering with the Joystick, for complete information concerning
joystick operation.
Electrical System Overload Protection
If an electrical overload occurs, a fuse or a circuit breaker opens. Find and correct the cause
for the electrical overload before replacing the fuse or resetting the circuit breaker.
NOTE: In an emergency, when you must operate the engine and cannot locate or correct
the cause for the electrical overload (high current draw), turn off or disconnect all the
accessories connected to the engine and instrumentation wiring. Reset the circuit breaker
or replace the fuse. If the circuit remains open, the electrical overload has not been
eliminated. Contact your Cummins MerCruiser Diesel Authorized Repair Facility to check
the electrical system.
