Operate the blowers for at least 4 minutes and until the engine room
is free of any fuel vapor before starting the generator. Continue
operating the blowers while the generator is running.
9. If your boat has the standard gasoline generator, a fuel solenoid
valve is installed in the generator fuel line. The valve automatically
stops the flow of fuel to the generator if the fuel hose ruptures or
becomes disconnected. For the valve to operate properly, its manual
bypass switch must be “OFF.” This switch is located in the engine
room above the aft inboard corner of the starboard fuel tank.
The generator STOP/START switch is spring activated. Release the
switch from its “START” position as soon as the generator starts. If you
continue to hold the switch in its “START” position after the generator
starts, you may damage the starter.
While you are attempting to start the generator, never hold the STOP/
START switch in the “START” position for more than 10 seconds.
