Resumen del manual
That is why the engine compartment must have forced ventilation, using the bilge blower, to remove potentially explosive gasoline vapors before the engine is started and when the boat is moving slowly. Because it may be difficult to remember to turn on the bilge blower every time you slow down the boat, (fig. 3.4.1) ! DANGER Gasoline vapors can explode Before starting the engines, open engine compartment and check for gasoline smell. • If you smell gasoline, do not start engine; get everyone off the boat and get trained help to find and fix the problem. • If there is no gasoline smell, perform checks specified by manual, then and only then, close engine compartment and run blower for at least 4 minutes before starting. (fig. 3.4.2) it is recommended that the bilge blower run all the time the engine is running. 6. Place drive unit in full DOWN/IN position. 7. Put shift control lever into neutral; then for a: COLD ENGINE - Move throttle lever forward to full open throttle, then return to about 1/4 throttle. In cold weather, it may be necessary to pump lever several times before engine will start. WARM ENGINE - Move throttle lever about 1/4 open throttle position. Do not pump lever. FLOODED ENGINE - Move throttle lever to full open position. DO NOT pump lever. When the engine starts, move throttle lever back rapidly to decrease engine speed to between 1000 and 1500 RPM. 8. TO START ENGINE: Turn ignition keys clockwise, as you would an automobile (Fig. 3.5.1). 9. After engine starts, reduce speed to between 1000 and 1500 RPM and check oil pressure. 10. If oil pressure is correct, let engine warm up to normal temperature range as specified in the engine manual, before shifting into forward or reverse gear (Fig. 3.5.2). IF ENGINE TEMPERATURE GOES ABOVE NORMAL RANGE. SHUT DOWN THE ENGINE IMMEDIATELY. GET TRAINED HELP TO FIND AND FIX THE PROBLEM (Fig. 3.5.3). IF OIL PRESSURE GOES ABOVE OR BELOW OPERATING RANGE, SHUT ENGINE DOWN IMMEDIATELY. GET TRAINED HELP TO FIND AND FIX THE PROBLEM. 8. Shifting to Drive the Boat Bring throttle lever all the way back. Once done, the drive is ready to shift. Move shift lever either forward or reverse. Then move throttle lever forward, the drive unit will engage and boat will start to move slowly in either forward or reverse. Once clear of the dock, mooring, people and/or the no-wake zone and the boat has been shifted into forward gear, move throttle lever forward to desired engine speed. 9. Stopping the Engine 1. Move throttle lever all the way back. Once done, move shift lever to neutral position, which is located in the center. (Fig. 3.5.4). 2. Turn ignition keys counter clockwise to turn off engine (Fig. 3.5.5). 3. If you are leaving the boat for more than two hours, turn battery switches OFF (Fig. 3.5.6) ! caution Cockpit can fill with water if boat is moving forward, when it is put into reverse. Before shifting into reverse, shift to neutral, wait for the boat to stop moving forward, then shift into reverse. (Fig. 3.5.1) (fig. 3.5.4) (Fig. 3.5.2) (Fig. 3.5.5) (Fig. 3.5.3) (fig. 3.5.6) 10. Steering System The steering system is an enclosed push-pull cable that is hydraulically assisted (power steering) at the stern drive end (Fig. 3.6.1). THE CABLE AND ITS CONNECTIONS TO THE STEERING WHEEL AND TO THE OUT DRIVE MUST BE INSPECTED AT LEAST TWICE A YEAR BY YOUR BAJA DEALER. See section 8 of this manual for inspection, service and maintenance recommendations. The power steering pump fluid level MUST be checked every time prior to using the boat. Refer to the steering system information in your Owner’s Packet. . Power Steering System (Fig 3.6.1) ! WARNING power steering cylinder Failure of the steering system will cause loss of control of your boat. Any change in steering such as looseness, tightness, binding, etc., must be checked immediately by your Baja dealer. steering cable Fluid return line Fluid pressure line Fluid rturn line check & add fluid here Helm Steering rack steering wheel H2X® 4.1 Section 4 • Bilge & Underwater Gear 1. Bilge A. Fuel & Oil Spillage Regulations prohibit discharging fuel or oily waste in navigable waters. Discharge is defined as any action which causes a film, sheen or discoloration on the water surface, or causes a sludge or emulsion beneath the water surface. A common violation is bilge discharge. Use rags or sponges to soak up fuel or oily waste, then dispose of it properly ashore. If there is much fuel or oil in the bilge, contact a knowledgeable marine service to remove it. Never pump contaminated bilge overboard. Fill fuel tank less than rated capacity. Allow for fuel expansion. B. Drain Plug The bottom of the engine compartment is called the “bilge”. It is the lowest and inner part of the hull. Water and other liquids will collect here. After removing your boat from the water, unthread the drain plug to drain the bilge (Figure 4.1.1). C. Bilge Pumps A bilge pump and float switch are located in the bottom of the bilge (Figure 4.1.2). The bilge pu...
