Before attempting to start the generator, make sure
the generator seacock is OPEN.
TIP
Dedicating a battery to the generator provides an
important safety feature. A dedicated battery enables
you to start the generator regardless of the condition of
the propulsion engine batteries. If the engine batteries
become discharged to the point where they are unable
to start an engine, start the generator and then turn on
the engine battery chargers. When the engine batteries
are recharged to an adequate level, you can start the
propulsion engines.
Do not operate the generator while the generator’s cooling
system seacock is closed. Operating the generator with the
seacocks closed can damage the system.
