Warning Stickers
Speedometer
The speedometer indicates the water speed of the boat in
miles per hour. It is recommended that the speedometer be
checked for accuracy after each 100 engine hours.
Speed may be checked using a stopwatch and a standard
slalom course. Adjust the speedometer needle by turning
the knob at the bottom of the gauge.
NOTE: If the speedometer registers erratically, check
speedometer pickups.
Tachometer
The tachometer registers the operating speed of the motor’s
shaft output and may be used as an alternative to
speedometer if weight and water conditions permit.
DO NOT exceed the recommended RPM during break-in
and normal operation of your motor. Exceeding the
manufacturer’s suggested RPM may cause damage to the
engine.
Always heed the dash mounted warning stickers.
GASOLINE VAPORS CAN EXPLODE!
BEFORE STARTING ENGINE:
- Check engine compartment for gasoline or vapors.
- Operate blower for four minutes before starting engine.
- Run blower below cruising speed.
- Turn off engine before using swimming ladder.
Speedometer Pickups
The speedometer pickup is located on the bottom of the hull. The
pickup measures the speed of water passing the paddlewheel. Poor
water conditions or foreign material may clog the pickup causing the
speedometer to register incorrectly.
Inspect the paddlewheel and remove any foreign material only when
engine is off.
Please see paddlewheel owner manual in the Boat Owner’s Packet
for more information.
ENGINE HOURS are shown on the face of the tachometer.
The engine hour gauge acts as an odometer for the engine.
Engine hours should always be noted and documented so
that required maintenance and lubricant changes may be
performed at the proper intervals.
