3.3.3 Shifting
3.3.3.1 Single-lever type remote control
handle (optional)
Return the control lever to neutral before perform-
ing the following operation.
(1) Ahead (Forward)
Gradually tilt the control handle to "Ahead". Tilting the handle gradually to accelerating side,
the clutch is thrown in and the boat sails ahead.
(2) Astern (Reverse)
Gradually tilt the control handle to "Astern". Tilting the handle gradually to accelerating side,
the clutch is thrown in and the boat sails astern.
(3) Neutral
Be sure to set the clutch marine gear handle at "Neutral".
[ NOTICE ]
Engine trouble can arise, if the engine is operated for a long time under overloaded
conditions with the remote control handle in the full throttle position (max. engine
speed position), exceeding the maximum engine speed.
Use the engine speed of about 100rpm below than at the full throttle position.
3.3.4 Checking during Operation
Always be on the look out for problems during engine operation.
Pay particular attention to the following.
(1) Is sufficient seawater being discharged from the seawater outlet pipe ?
If the discharge is small, stop the engine immediately, identify the cause and repair.
(2) Is the exhaust color normal ?
The continuous black exhaust smoke shows engine overloading.
This shortens the engine's life, so should be avoided.
(3) Are there abnormal vibrations or noise ?
Do not operate at speeds which produce violent vibrations. Depending on the hull structure,
engine and hull resonance may suddenly become great at a certain engine speed range
causing heavy vibrations. Avoid operation in this speed range. If you hear any abnormal
sounds, stop the engine and inspect.
(4) Alarm buzzer sounds during operation.
If the alarm buzzer sounds during operation, Iower the engine speed immediately, check the
alarm lamps, and stop the engine for repairs.
(5) Is there water, oil, or gas leakage, or are there any loose bolts ?
Check the engine room periodically for any problems.
(6) Is there sufficient oil in the fuel tank ?
Replenish fuel oil in advance to avoid running out of fuel during operation.
(7) When operating the engine at low speed for long periods of time, race the engine once
every 2 hours.
[ NOTICE ]
Do not accelerate or decelerate sharply,
overload, etc. for the first 50 hours when
using a new engine.
