All fuel systems and components on your EdgeWater
3 CC 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.

The fuel fill cap is located on the port side and is labeled “GAS”. Turning the cap
“counterclockwise” opens it, and “clockwise” closes it. 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 incorporated into the fuel fill cap. This vent allows air to escape from the tank and thus
allows fuel to enter. Make sure the fill and vent area is kept free from debris.
