General Guidelines
Also follow these important guidelines during fuel-
ing operations:
• Shut down outboard engines, electric motors, and
fans before fueling. All possible sources of igni-
tion must be OFF before you begin taking on gas-
oline.
• Close all ports, windows, doors, hatches, and
compartments.
• Extinguish cigarettes, pipes, stoves, and all other
flame-producing devices.
• Make sure all electrical power is OFF . Do not
operate any electrical switches.
• Never take on gasoline at night, except in well-
lighted areas.
• Insert fuel nozzle and make sure nozzle is in con-
tact with or grounded against fill pipe before you
pump gasoline. This contact must be continu-
ously maintained until gasoline flow has stopped.
• Never exceed a fill rate of 9 GPM. Slow the fill
rate to 6 GPM for the final ¼ of tank.
• DO NOT fill the tank completely. Allow a mini-
mum of 2% of tank volume for temperature-
related expansion. Allow for 6% expansion if the
temperature of the gasoline taken on-board is
32°F or lower.
• Close and secure the fuel fill cap after fueling.
• Wipe up any spillage completely and dispose of
rags or waste on-shore following all state and fed-
eral regulations.
• Ventilate the area to eliminate gasoline vapor
before energizing any electrical circuits or starting
the outboard engines.

WARNING
This fuel system is not designed to support an

never leave a fueling process unattended.
