10.1 INFORMATION ABOUT THE RISKS OF FIRE AND OF EXPLOSION OF ENGINES
- Make sure that the coolant is circulating properly.
- Ensure that ventilation openings in the compartment fuel tank are not obstructed.
- Stop the engine and refrain from smoking during fuel tank filling.
- Get your fuel circuit checked regularly by a professional engineer.
- Avoid any contact between inflammable materials and the hot sections of the engine.
- Never switch off or de-energise the electric system when the engine is running.
- Never block the access of the fuel supply valve.
- Do not obstruct or modify the ventilation system.
- Never turn the engine over when the boat is on land.
- Fuel stored outside the tanks (jerrycans, portable fuel tanks, etc.) must be stowed on deck, protected from bad weather
and mechanical damage.
- Regularly check that the petrol tank compartment is clean and dry.
The outboard engine must have a built-in fuel
tank. No space is designed for the stowage of a
separate fuel tank.
