Bow thruster control panels

• Fit the control panel next to the steering position. There must be
at least 50 mm (2") space behind the panel.
• Fit the control cable between the bow thruster and the control
panel through the vessel and connect the jack connections to-
gether.
If it is necessary to cut the intermediate cable and reconnect it
take care to ensure the correct colours are connected together.
N.B: The colours of the wire cores in the intermediate cable may
differ from the wire core colours as used on the bow thruster mo-
tor and on the control panel!
If there are two steering positions, the second control panel can
be connected to the first one.
If 2 separate switches are used instead of a Vetus console, con-
sult the diagram on page110.
If it is found during test running that the thrust direction does not
correspond with the direction switch on the control panel then the
blue (no. 1) and the white (no. 4) wires on the relay must be inter-
changed.
Do NOT test the bow thruster while the ship is out of water, un-
less you are certain that everyone is at a safe distance from the
thrust tube.
Never allow the bow thruster to run for longer than 5 seconds
with the ship out of water.
