All fuel systems and components on your EdgeWater 175CC / 155CC have been checked and each fuel
tank has been pressure tested. This inspection and pressure testing assure that your fuel system is leak
proof and safe. It is the purchaser’s responsibility to maintain the fuel system in a safe manner. Make
periodic inspections to determine the system is still safe and free from leaks. Special care should be
taken when inspecting joints and connections to make sure they have not loosened with vibration.
The EdgeWater fuel system has been designed to meet or exceed the requirements of the U.S. Coast
Guard, the National Marine Manufacturers Association, and the American Boat and Yacht Council, which
were in effect at the time of your boat’s manufacture.
If any odor of gasoline is detected, immediately shut off all engines and electrical devices
until the source and condition of the odor has been determined and eliminated. Have a fire
extinguisher at the ready until the condition has been resolved.

The fuel fill cap is located on the port side and is labeled “GAS”. The fill is opened by
turning it counterclockwise, and closed by turning the cap clockwise. Tighten the
cap until it is snug, not so tight it cannot be removed at the next fuel stop, or so tight
that the rubber o-ring is damaged, allowing water to enter the system.

This vent is located on the portside of the boat on the hull. This vent allows air to escape from the tank
and thus allows fuel to enter. Make sure this vent is kept free from debris.
