Exhaust System
WARNING:
EXHAUST HAZARD!
NEVER OPERATE ENGINE IN A BOATS ENGINE BAY
WITHOUT PROPER VENTILATION. NEVER BLOCK VENTS OR OTHER MEANS OF
VENTILATION. ALL COMBUSTION ENGINES CREATE CARBON MONOXIDE GAS
DURING OPERATION. ACCUMULATION OF THIS GAS COULD CAUSE ILLNESS OR
EVEN DEATH.
WARNING:
BURN HAZARD!
WAIT UNTIL THE EXHAUST COOLS BEFORE YOU TOUCH IT.
Exhaust gases may have temperatures as high as 650
o
c and contain elements which
are harmful if ingested. It is therefore essential that exhaust systems are gas tight and
lagged to prevent accidental burning.
5.
Launching and Lifting Boats
Care must be taken when launching or craning new boats into or out of the waterway,
so that water does not enter the engine via the exhaust system or air vents. It is
recommended that these are blocked temporarily whilst undertaking this procedure.
