Safety Information Safety precautions to be taken when operating the boat Your new boat Read operator’s manuals and other information supplied with your new boat. Learn to operate the engine, controls and other equipment safely and correctly. If this is your first boat, or is a boat type with which you are not familiar, we recommend that you practice controlling the boat in peace and quiet.
Safety Information Carbon monoxide poisoning When a boat is moving forward, it will cause a certain vacuum to form behind the boat. In unfortunate circumstances, the suction from this vacuum can be so great that the exhaust gases from the boat are drawn into the cockpit or cabin and cause carbon monoxide poisoning. This problem is most prevalent on high, wide boats with abrupt stern. In certain conditions, however, this suction can be a problem on other boats, e.g. when running with the cover up.
Safety Information Safety precautions for maintenance and service operations Preparations Knowledge The operator’s manual contains instructions on how to carry out general maintenance and service operations safely and correctly. Read the instructions carefully before starting work. Service literature covering more complicated operations is available from your Volvo Penta dealer.

Controls This chapter describes the controls sold by Volvo Penta for your engine. Electronic lever control Operation Both the shift function and engine speed control are controlled using the lever control. N = Neutral position (Drive-unit is disengaged and the engine runs at idle speed). F = Drive-unit engaged for movement ahead. R = Drive-unit engaged for movement astern. T = Adjustment of engine speed. NOTE! The engine can only be started if the Control lever is in the neutral position.
Friction brake The control has a friction brake which can be adjusted as necessary to provide lighter or heavier lever action. Adjusting the friction brake: 1. Stop the engine. 2. Mover the control lever forwards so that the groove in the hub of the control lever is accessible. 3. Position a screwdriver in the groove and remove the plug. 4. Adjust the friction brake (8 mm wrench): Clockwise = heavier lever action Counter clockwise = lighter lever action. 5. Reinstall the plug.
Starting the engine Make it a habit to give the engine and engine bay a visual check before starting. This will help you to discover quickly if anything abnormal has happened, or is about to happen. Also check that instruments and warning displays show normal values after you have started the engine. To minimize starting smoke in cold starting, we recommend that a heater should be installed to warm the engine bay at temperatures below +5°C.
Starting the engine Starting method Turn the ignition on Turn the starter key to position I to switch the ignition on. Check LEDs Each time the ignition is turned on, all LEDs are illuminated on the main control panel. Check that all LEDs function. If the boat has more than one control panel, the LEDs on the other panel(s) are not checked until the control panel(s) is(are) activated. Check the tachometer display If a fault is registered it will be shown in the tachometer display.
Starting the engine Start the engine Start using the ignition switch Turn the key to position III. Release the key and let it key spring back to position I as soon as the engine has started. Stop cranking if the engine does not start with in 20 sek. Starting with the starter button Press the starter button. Release the button as soon as the engine has started. Please note that if you start from an alternative control station, the starter key at the main control station must be in position I.
Operation Learn to handle the engine, controls and other equipment in a safe and correct manner before you cast off on your maiden voyage. Remember to avoid sudden or surprising rudder movements and gear shifting. There is a risk that passengers could fall over, or overboard. WARNING! A rotating propeller can cause severe injury. Check that there is nobody in the water before you engage forward / aft drive.
Operation Acknowledging alarms and messages There are several types of alarms and messages that can appear as a pop-up in the tachometer/display. NOTE! Some alarms for fault are also accompanied by a buzzer. First silence the buzzer by pushing the NAVIGATION WHEEL on the control panel. 1. Read the alarm/message pop-up. 2. Acknowledge the pop-up by pushing the NAVIGATION WHEEL on the control panel (sometimes repeatedly). The pop-up will disappear. 3. Take the indicated actions.
Operation Synchronizing engine speed When driving with twin engines, both the operating economy and comfort will be increased when the engines are operating at the same engine speed (rpm). When the synchronization function is activated, the engine speed (rpm) of the starboard engine is automatically adjusted to that of the port engine. The synchronization function is activated automatically if the following conditions are met. 1.
Operation Operation Shifting between forward and reverse should be done at idling. Shifting at higher engine speeds can be uncomfortable for passengers and cause unnecessary stress on the drive-unit, or cause the engine to stop. If you attempt to shift gear at an excessive engine speed, a safety function cuts in automatically, and delays shifting until engine speed has fallen to 1500 rpm. 1 Always do a forward/reverse operation as follows: 1.
Operation Steering with control levers NOTE! Engine speed is limited to 1500 rpm . Rotate the boat Put one control lever in the position for forward and put the other control lever in the position for reverse. Use a suitable engine speed for manoeuvring. The direction of rotation is determined by the lever which is put in the position for reverse. If the boat is to move to starboard, the starbord control lever should be put in the position for reverse. Steering the boat Put the control levers in forward.
Operation Docking (Joystick) The Volvo Penta IPS docking function (joystick) makes it possible to rotate the boat and maneuver it in any direction – sideways, diagonally, forward and backward – with one hand. IMPORTANT! The the docking function (joystick) should only be used for docking (slow speed maneuvering). B A NOTE! Learn to use the docking function (joystick) and its functions in a safe and correct manner, before starting to use the function in a crowded marina.
Operation Enabling boost mode In situations where normal thrust is insufficient, for example when it is windy or there is a strong current, the boost mode can be enabled. When the boost mode is enabled, the operator has more thrust available than in the normal docking mode. NOTE! The boost mode should not be used more than necessary. 1. Enable the docking function. B 2. Enable the boost mode by pushing the boost button (B) on the joystick. 3. A beep indicates that the boost mode is enabled.
Operation Maneuvering with the joystick WARNING! A rotating propeller can cause serious injury. Ensure that there is no one in the water before you enable docking mode. Never go near people who are bathing or where there is a risk that there are people in the water. WARNING! Remember that the side thrust is considerably greater than with a conventional bow propeller. The boat will continue to move in the selected direction even after the joystick has been released.
Operation Diagonally Rotate Turn 57
Operation Calibrating joystick function This calibration only needs to be performed if the boat movement does not corresponds to the movement of the joystick. Calibrate the joystick function as follows: 1 A IMPORTANT! When calibrating the joystick function the boat must be operated in open water and under safe conditions. Avoid performing the calibration in strong winds or sea-current as such conditions may affect the outcome of the calibration.
Stopping the engine The engine should be run for a few minutes at idle (in neutral) before turning it off. This will avoid boiling and even out the temperature. This is especially important if the engine has been operated at high engine speeds and loads. Stopping Turn the key to stop position “S”. Keep the key turned until the engine stops. The key will automatically return to the “0” position when it is released and can then be removed.
Stopping the engine Cold weather precautions To prevent freezing damage, the seawater system must be drained and the freshwater system coolant must have sufficient antifreeze protection. Refer to the cooling system section in chapter “Maintenance”. IMPORTANT! A poorly charged battery may burst as a result of freezing.

Maintenance. Engine general Checking drive belts WARNING! Stop the engine before commencing maintenance work. General Check belt tension and condition regularly. If the belt is too taut it can damage bearings and if it is too loose it may slip. Therefore, check the belt tension regularly. Check and adjust after operation when the belt is warm. IMPORTANT ! Always change a belt that appears worn or is cracked (belts working in pairs must be replaced together). Adjusting/changing drive belts.
Maintenance: Engine general Compressor. Checking oil Checking and topping up Unscrew and remove the dipstick. Wipe off oil. Screw the dipstick down fully and then remove it again. Check that the level oil is between the markings. If the dipstick is not screwed down fully the oil level will be slightly above the MIN marking if the oil level is correct. Ensure therefore that the dipstick is fully screwed in to read off the oil level correctly. Top up the oil as required (use the dip stick tube to fill).
Lubrication system, Engine IMPORTANT! With a new or reconditioned engine, the oil and oil filters must be changed after 20–50 hours of operation. Use only the recommended grades of oil. Please refer to the “Technical Data” chapter. Oil change intervals can vary from 100 to 200 hours, depending on oil grade and sulphur content of the fuel. Please refer to the “Technical Data” chapter. Note that oil change intervals must never exceed a period of 12 months.
Maintenance. Lubrication system Changing engine oil Always observe the recommended oil change interval. IMPORTANT! Only use a recommended grade of oil. Please refer to the “Technical Data” chapter. IMPORTANT! The oil level should always be between the MAX and MIN marks on the dipstick. Higher or lower oil level than permitted could lead to engine damage. 1. Start the engine (this makes it easier to suck the oil up from the sump).
Maintenance. Lubrication system Changing oil filter and bypass filter. Change the oil filter and bypass filter during each oil change. Remember to hand the old filters in to a re-cycling station. WARNING! Hot oil and hot surfaces can cause burns. 1. Put a suitable vessel underneath the filters to avoid oil spillage. 2. Clean the filter bracket. 3. Unscrew the bypass filter (1) and the oil filters (2) with a suitable extractor. 4.
Freshwater system The fresh water system is the engines’ internal cooling system, which ensures that the engine operates at the correct temperature. It is a closed circuit system and must always be filled with a mixture of at least 40 % concentrated coolant and 60 % water to protect against internal corrosion, cavitation and damage caused by freezing.
Maintenance. Freshwater system Coolant. Mixture WARNING! All glycol is hazardous and harmful to the environment. Do not consume! Glycol is flammable. IMPORTANT! Ethylene glycol must not be mixed with other types of glycol. Mix: 40 % “Volvo Penta Coolant” (conc. coolant) 60 % water This mixture protects the engine against internal corrosion, cavitation and frost damage down to -28 °C (-18°F). (Using 60 % glycol lowers the freezing point to -54 °C (-65°F)).
Maintenance. Freshwater system Checking coolant level WARNING! Do not open the engine coolant system filler cap when the engine is still hot except in an emergency. Steam or hot coolant may spray out. Turn the filler cap slowly counter clockwise and let any pressure escape from the system before removing the cap. Top up coolant if necessary. The coolant level should be between the MAX and MIN marking on the expansion tank. Reinstall the filler cap.
Seawater system The seawater system is the boat’s external cooling system. On engines with drives, the seawater pump draws in water via the drive-unit, through the control system oil cooler to the seawater pump, after which the water passes the seawater filter before being pumped through the fuel cooler, intercooler, engine oil cooler and heat exchanger. Finally, the water is pumped into the exhaust pipe elbow, where it is mixed with the exhaust gases.
Maintenance. Seawater system Cleaning seawater filter 1 WARNING! Risk for water penetration. 2 3 Screw off cover (1) and remove seal plate (2). Lift out and clean the insert (3). IMPORTANT! If the boat is used in water that has a lot of contaminants, seaweed etc. the filter must be checked more frequently than indicated in the maintenance schedule. Otherwise there is a risk the filter will clog and the engine will overheat. Draining seawater system Use a suitable receptacle while draining.
Maintenance. Seawater system Checking/Changing sacrificial anodes WARNING! Risk of water entering. Close the seawater cock before starting work on the seawater system. 1. Close the seawater cock. 2. Drain the seawater as described in ”Draining the seawater system”. 3. Remove the sacrificial anodes in the heat exchanger and the intercooler. 4. Check the sacrificial anodes and replace them if they are less than 50% of their original size.
Maintenance. Seawater system Seawater system. Cleaning and inhibiting To prevent the build up of deposits and salt crystals in the seawater system it must be flushed with freshwater. When the boat is laid up it must also be inhibited. WARNING! Risk of water penetration. Cleaning and inhibiting the seawater system should be carried out with the boat on land. 1. Open the seawater cock on drive-unit. 2.
Fuel system The engine fuel system is a so-called common rail-system. The advantage of the common rail-system is that the engine control unit controls the timing and fuel amount, this mean better emission control and a smooth running engine. All work on the engine common rail-system must be carried out at an authorized workshop. Use only the recommended grade of fuel: See the chapter “Technical Data”. WARNING! Fire risk. When carrying out work on the fuel system makes sure the engine is cold.
Maintenance. Fuel system Bleeding the fuel system The fuel system must be bled e.g. after changing fuel filter, if the fuel tank has been run dry and after long stops. 2 1 WARNING! Never detach the pressure pipes. 1. Attach a transparent hose to the air vent valve (1). Lead the hose to a suitable receptacle to avoid spillage. 2. Open the air vent valve and pump fuel using the hand pump (2) until the fuel running out is free from air bubbles. Close and tighten the air vent valve. 3.
Maintenance. Fuel system 1 Fuel pre-filter. Changing filter insert Close fuel cock at the fuel tank. Position a container under the fuel filter. Remove the cover by slackening off screw (1). Replace insert and reinstall cover. Open fuel cock. Vent fuel system. Deposit the old filter insert at a properly designated disposal site. Start the engine and check for leaks. WARNING! Approaching a running engine is dangerous. Watch out for rotating components and hot surfaces.
Electrical system The engine is equipped with a two-pole system electrical system which means that the voltage (minus) is returned directly from the starter motor minus terminal with the battery negative lead. Individual components on the system return voltage to the starter motor minus terminal via separate cables. WARNING! Always stop the engine and break the current using the main switches before working on the electrical system.
Maintenance: Electrical system Electrical connections Also check that all electrical connections are dry and free of oxidation and that there are no loose connections. If necessary, spray these connections with a water-repellent spray (Volvo Penta Universal oil). Battery. Maintenance WARNING! Risk of fire and explosion. Never allow an open flame or electric sparks near the battery or batteries. WARNING! Never mix up battery positive and negative terminals. This may cause sparks and an explosion.
Maintenance: Electrical system Battery. Charging WARNING! Danger of explosion! The batteries give off hydrogen gas during charging which when mixed with air can form an explosive gas – oxyhydrogen. A short-circuit, naked flame or spark can cause a large explosion. Ensure that the ventilation is good. WARNING! The battery electrolyte contains extremely corrosive sulfuric acid. Protect your skin and clothes when charging or handling batteries. Always use protective goggles and gloves.
Maintenance: Electrical system Electrical installations Leakage current from the electrical system can be caused by incorrect installation of electrical equipment. Leakage current can knock out the galvanic protection of components such as the drive, propeller, propeller shaft, rudder stock and keel and cause damage by electrolytic corrosion. IMPORTANT! Work on the boat’s low tension circuit should only be carried out by qualified or experienced persons.
Maintenance: Electrical system 4. There must be a main switch connected to the starter battery positive (+) terminal. The main switch should cut off power to all power consuming equipment and should be switched off when the boat is not in use. 5. If an auxiliary battery is in use, a main switch should be connected between its (+) terminal and the fuse block, and the (–) terminal and the terminal block for the boat’s electrical equipment.
Volvo Penta IPS drive-unit The drive-unit is hydraulic, which means that forward/reverse engagement and disengagement is hydraulically activated. The drive-unit lubrication system has an oil filter and oil cooler. The drive-unit is equipped with solenoid valves for electronically controlled shifting. The drive-unit is protected against galvanic corrosion. This protection consists of sacrificial anodes and ground braids.
Maintenance: Drive-unit Checking corrosion protection between the housing and the clamping ring Check that the space between the drive-unit housing and the clamping ring are entirely coated with corrosion protection, Volvo Penta P/N 9510227. If the coating needs to be renewed, follow the instructions below: 1. Clean and dry off the space between the housing and the clamping ring. 2. Spray a liberal coating of corrosion protection in the space between the housing and the clamping ring.

Laying up/Launching Before taking the boat out of the water for winter/out-of-season storage have an authorized Volvo Penta workshop inspect the engine and other equipment. Have any necessary repairs or service work carried out so that your boat is in top condition for the new season. Inhibition should be carried out to ensure that the engine and transmission are not damaged while out of commission during the winter/off-season. It is important this is done properly and than nothing is forgotten.
Laying up/Launching Bringing out of storage ● Check oil level in the engine and the drive-unit. Top up if necessary. If there is inhibiting oil in the system drain and fill with new oil, change oil filter. For correct oil grade: See the chapter “Technical Data”. ● Drain the antifreeze from the seawater system. ● Install the impeller in the seawater pump. Replace if the old one looks worn. Please refer to the Sea Water System chapter. ● Close/tighten drain cocks/plugs.
Laying up/Launching Repairing the drive-unit antifouling coating The propulsion unit and propellers have an antifouling coating applied from delivery. Inspect the coating annually and scrape off any loose coating and apply a fresh coating. Volvo Penta recommends the coating “Prop speed ® “. For instructions on how to apply the coating, please refer to the instructions that come with the “Prop speed ® “.
In case of emergency Despite regular maintenance according to the maintenance schedule and perfect operation, faults may occur which must be attended to before the boat can travel further. This chapter contains tips for rectifying some of the possible faults. There are safety functions which are activated when certain faults occur, to protect the engine. The following can occur: ● Engine can not be started ● Gear in neutral and engine speed is limited to 1500 rpm, no steering.
In case of emergency Emergency shifting If a fault occurs which prevents the drive-unit from being operated (shifted) with the control lever it is possible to shift manually using the description below. WARNING! In emergency shifting, the unit is locked in forwards operation. Please note that the gear can not then be disengaged with the control lever. Forward motion can only be cut off by stopping the engine with the ignition key or stop button.
In case of emergency Alignment of drive-unit If a fault occurs which prevents the drive-unit from being operated with the steering wheel it is possible to align the drive-unit to straight forward manually using the description below. The tools needed during this operation are delivered in a special tool box together with the boat. WARNING! The following procedure must be carried out with the engines stopped. 1. 2. 1. Remove the plug (1).
