Turn generator sea cock off. Check strainer for
debris. Turn generator sea cock on before starting it.
Ensure that all main panel and equipment
breakers are off.
Inspect the generator for fuel, oil, exhaust or
water leaks.
Check generator engine oil level. Top off with
correct viscosity as required.
Check coolant for proper level at recovery tank.
Add as needed.
Check the main fuel tank to ensure there is
adequate gasoline for both the generator and the
engines. Apply the one-third rule.
Check for loose wires at the alternator.
Check the port side cranking battery (weekly).
Check drive belts for wear and proper tension
(weekly).
Record the hour meter reading to meet
maintenance scheduling.
Before Starting Generator
The following items should be checked each time
before starting the generator. This covers the basic
system components.
Check the blower for proper operation. Start
blower and let run at least 4 minutes before
attempting to start the generator. Run blower
continuously while generator is running.
Check the water surrounding the aft platform
for persons in the water. Do not attempt to start the
generator with persons in the water as generator
exhaust could overcome the individual with CO
poisoning and lead to drowning. Never let persons
near the generator exhaust which is located on the
starboard transom.
Typical Generator Exhaust System
The generator exhaust system features a dual
tier operation. As the water and exhaust exit the
generator they travel to the muffler. The muffler
discharges the heavier water out the muffler bottom
and through the hull. The exhaust itself is exited out
the muffler top and through the hull. The benefits
of the system are two-fold. First, the actual decibel
or sound level is decreased. In addition, the lower
resonating sound is more pleasing to the ear. For
colder climates, a drain plug is installed in the
muffler.
Before departure always check the hose connections
for signs of water and air leaks. Tighten hose clamps
periodically as needed. Check entire exhaust
system for leaks and fastener tightness.
After starting generator, check for water flow at the
generator discharge.
