Remove all excess load and bilge water before lifting the boat onto a trailer. Adjust
the trailer's longside support guides so that the main weight of the boat rests on
the keel support. Lift the boat onto the trailer using the bow eye. The other fixing
points will not withstand the weight of the boat when it is lifted. Fasten the boat
securely to the trailer before transporting the boat. Make sure the fastening lines
prevent sideways movement as well as movement back and forth. Protect the boat
by inserting a pad between the boat and the fastening lines where necessary. Also
consult the engine manual for further trailer transportation guidelines.
Hint: any water remaining in the bilge can be emptied through the rear plug when
the boat is on the trailer. Remember to attach the rear plug before launching the
boat from the trailer.

Maintenance, repairs and docking
Further information about the boat's maintenance, wintering, servicing and repair is
available on the website at http://www.buster.fi or from the nearest Buster dealer.
Any major damage to the aluminium structures or the surface should be repaired by
an authorised Buster distributor.
In the event of engine failure or problems with other equipment the primary point of
contact is the equipment manufacturer in question.
NB
Make sure the trailer is rated for the weight of the boat and that
the towing vehicle may be used to tow the combined weight of
the boat and the trailer. Also make sure your driver's licence
allows you to drive the combination of your vehicle and the
heavy trailer.
The weight of the trailer should rest slightly on the towing bar.
Make sure the boat has been fastened securely to the trailer
and that the boat's weight is distributed evenly on the supports.
If the boat rolls from side to side during transportation it will
crash against individual supports, potentially damaging the hull.
A poorly maintained boat trailer or a trailer with insufficient load
capacity may break down during transport and cause a hazard.
Ensure that the trailer's load-carrying capacity is sufficient for
the combined weight of the boat, the engine, the fuel and the
equipment.
Unauthorised and/or incorrectly carried out installations or
alterations may damage the boat's structures or compromise
safety. Please contact the builder before making or
commissioning new electrical installations, openings or
through holes, installing equipment or incorporating other
metal alloys in an aluminium boat.
