NOTICE: Keep the generator seacock closed
when the generator is not in use.
6. Check that marine ship-to-shore transfer
switch is in the proper position and that all
breakers are in the OFF position.
7. Open the manual fuel shut-off valve (if
equipped).
Note: Generator fuel pickup is intentionally
shorter than engine pickup, so that the generator
cannot run the boat out of fuel.

Starting
WARNING! The blowers must be operated for
a minimum of four minutes before each time
the engine is started. Failure to operate the
blower can cause an explosion.
1. Operate the ventilation blowers for a minimum
of four minutes and check the engine
compartment for gasoline vapors.
CAUTION! Do not crank the engine for more
than seven seconds at a time. Allow a
five-second cool down period between
cranking attempts if the engine fails to
start. If the engine fails to start after three
attempts, contact an authorized dealer for
repairs. Failure to do so may result in
serious damage to the starter motor.
Failure to do so may allow the muffler to
overfill with water and backflow into the
engine through the exhaust valve.
2. Press the controller master switch, or the
remote start switch on the AC control panel,
to the START position and release switch
when the unit has started.
CAUTION! Allow at least 30 seconds after
shutdown before starting a hot engine. If
the engine fails to start after the first
attempt, close the seacock temporarily
before continuing. This will prevent
seawater from entering the engine
cylinders through the exhaust valve.
CAUTION! After generator has started,
check to be sure that water is flowing
overboard from the generator discharge. If
there is no discharge, stop and check for
leaks or obstructions.
Stopping
1. Run generator set at no load for five minutes
to allow engine to cool down.
