Maneuvering
Shifting between ahead and astern must be done at
idle revolutions. Shifting at higher revolutions may
cause unnecessary wear on the transmission or cause
the engine to stop. Attempts to shift at revolutions that
are too high will cause an automatic protection function
to take effect which will delay shifting until revolutions
have dropped to around 1500 rpm.
Always shift between ahead and astern in
the following manner:
1 Reduce engine revolutions to idle and allow the
boat to lose most of its speed.
2 Move the control lever to the neutral position with a
quick, firm movement. Pause a moment.
3 Move the control lever back with a quick, firm
movement and increase revolutions.
IMPORTANT!
All engines must be running during maneuvers astern,
otherwise there is a risk of water entering the exhaust
system on the stopped engine.
Switch IMO Tier II/III
It is the responsibility of the boat operator to always
ensure that the IMO regulation is fulfilled.
By a button on the main station the operator can switch
between IMO Tier II and IMO Tier III.
When switching to IMO Tier II, this must be logged in
the vessel logbook with time and position.
