Engine Hatch Switch
An engine guard which is not in place or in contact with any
moving parts can cause death or serious personal injury. The
engine box cover is a machinery guard. DO NOT operate your boat
without the cover closed and in place unless you are performing a
check or maintenance. Keep your hands, clothing, hair and any
other body parts away from any moving parts.
The engine hatch switch controls the UP or DOWN operation of the engine hatch.
DO NOT continue to operate the switch when the engine hatch is closed or fully
open. Damage to the system will occur. Lower the hatch support when the hatch is
opened. Be sure to return the support to its stowed position before lowering the
hatch.
Engine Hour Meter
The engine hour meter operates automatically as a timing device and records engine
running time. The operation is very similar to the odometer in your personal vehicle.
By observing the actual operating time of the engine, you can determine service and
maintenance intervals. The engine hour meter is located at the helm dash, in the
engine compartment or in a cockpit storage compartment.
NOTE:
DO NOT leave the ignition key ON with the engine OFF. This will
automatically activate the meter and increase the engine operating time.
Engine Room Lights Switch
The engine room light switch controls the ON or OFF operation mode of the engine
room lights.
