GENERAL INFORMATION
Boater's Responsibilities
The operator (driver) is responsible for the correct and safe operation of the
boat and safety of its occupants and general public. It is strongly recommended
that each operator (driver) read and understand this entire manual before
operating the trolling motor.
Be sure at least one additional person on board is instructed in the basic
operation of the trolling motor in case the driver is unable to operate the boat.
Protecting People in the Water
WHILE YOU ARE TROLLING
It is very difficult for a person in the water to take quick action to avoid a boat
heading in their direction, even at slow speeds.
Always slow down and exercise extreme caution any time you are boating in an
area where there might be people in the water.
WHILE THE BOAT IS STATIONARY
WARNING
!
A spinning propeller, a moving boat, or any solid device attached to the boat
can cause serious injury or death to swimmers. Stop the trolling motor
immediately whenever anyone in the water is near your boat.
Shut off the trolling motor before allowing people to swim or be in the water
near your boat.
Passenger Safety Message
Whenever the boat is in motion, observe the location of all passengers. A
sudden reduction in boat speed, such as a sharp change of boat direction,
could throw them off the boat.
Safe Boating Suggestions
In order to safely enjoy the waterways, familiarize yourself with local and other
governmental boating regulations and restrictions, and consider the following
suggestions.
Use flotation devices. It is the law to have an approved personal flotation
device of suitable size for each person aboard and have it readily accessible.
4 eng
GENERAL INFORMATION
Do not overload your boat. Most boats are rated and certified for maximum
load (weight) capacities, refer to your boat capacity plate. If in doubt, contact
your dealer or the boat's manufacturer.
Perform safety checks and required maintenance. Follow a regular
schedule and ensure all repairs are made properly.
Never be under the influence of alcohol or drugs while boating (it is the
law). Alcohol or drug use impairs your judgment and greatly reduces your
ability to react quickly.
Passenger boarding. Stop the trolling motor whenever passengers are
boarding or unloading.
Be alert. The operator of the boat is responsible by law to maintain a proper
lookout by sight and hearing. The operator must have an unobstructed view
particularly to the front. No passengers, load, or fishing seats should block the
operators view when operating the boat.
Underwater hazards. Reduce speed and proceed with caution whenever
navigating in shallow water.
Tripping hazards. To avoid a trip hazard, route all cables and wiring neatly
and out of the way.
Report accidents. Boat operators are required by law to file a Boating
Accident Report with their state boating law enforcement agency when their
boat is involved in certain boating accidents. A boating accident must be
reported if 1) there is loss of life or probable loss of life, 2) there is personal
injury requiring medical treatment beyond first aid, 3) there is damage to boats
or other property where the damage value exceeds $500.00 or 4) there is
complete loss of the boat. Seek further assistance from local law enforcement.
