General Safety Notices:
1. Be sure to read and understand the safety
information and all thruster operation
information before attempting to use the
thruster system.
2. Do not operate the bow thruster system
close to swimmers as a high powered suction
is produced at the propellers.
3. Make sure the propeller lock nut is torqued to the required foot
pound specifi cation.
To use the thruster fi rst make sure the battery switch is activated.
As part of the thruster system there is a joystick on the helm. The
thruster will assist in slow speed maneuvering especially around a dock
or close mooring situations. It operates similar to an gaming or marine
engine joystick.
To activate the joystick, push and hold the black button. The red icon
will illuminate.
Using The Thruster:
Never run the thruster dry; it will weld the relay contacts as it becomes
a generator in spool down.
Do not make quick changes from one direction to the other direction,
or it will damage the unit.
The minimum running voltage for the thruster is 10.5 volts; therefore
the outboard engine(s) should be running to maintain this voltage
requirement.
There is an in-line ANL fast activation fuse for overcurrent protection
behind the thruster switch panel.
