Handling Your Boat - Zodiac MEDLINE 5.8 Eignerhandbuch

HANDLING YOUR BOAT

Before starting, refer to the Owner's Manual Volume I.
NOTE: Check that the buoyancy chamber is correctly inflated.
1
Move the battery switch to "ON" to provide voltage
3
Put the circuit breaker on and connect
it*
* Should the operator fall overboard, immediately shutting down the engine considerably reduces the
risk of serious or even deadly injuries caused by the boat's motion. Always properly attach both ends of
the emergency circuit breaker.
DANGER!
TURN OFF THE ENGINE IMMEDIATELY AS SOON AS A SWIMMER COMES
CLOSE TO THE BOAT. A SPINNING PROPELLER REPRESENTS A SERIOUS INJURY
HAZARD.
SOME CONTROL HANDLES ARE NOT EQUIPPED WITH MECHANISMS THAT
LOCK THEM IN A NEUTRAL POSITION. BE CAREFUL TO NOT TRIGGER THE
CONTROL HANDLE UNINTENTIONALLY.
WARNING!
WHEN UNDERWAY, KEEP ALL LOCKERS, DECK HATCHES AND TANK ACCESS
HATCH CLOSED. CRESTING WAVES REPRESENT A MAJOR BOAT STABILITY
AND FLOODING HAZARD.
SHOULD A DECK HATCH SEAL BECOME DAMAGED, PLEASE CONTACT YOUR
DEALER TO ENSURE REPLACEMENT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THESE RESTRICTIONS MAY CAUSE YOUR BOAT TO
CAPSIZE.
AVOID ABRUPT MANOEUVRES AT FULL SPEED. REDUCE SPEED IN WAVES FOR
THE COMFORT AND SAFETY OF PASSENGERS.
DO NOT USE E10, E85, ETC. TYPE BIOFUELS.
