SAFE BOATING TIPS
PAGE 16
STARTING YOUR DIESEL ENGINE
1. Visually check engine compartment to
see that the throttle linkage, shifting
controls, electrical connections and fuel
lines are properly secured.
2. Before each start check oil in engine
and transmission.
3. Insure that the engine shut-off cable is
properly secured and operating.
4. Place the shift lever in the neutral posi-
tion. Pull out the button beside the shift
lever to disengage the shift. On single
lever controls, lift the collar under the
shift lever knob and move the lever
forward to advance the throttle for neu-
tral warm-up.
5. Insert the starter key and turn to the
“
on
”
position.
6. Press the starter button and hold until
engine starts, then release. The buzzer
and/or light should then go off.
Press
the starter button no longer than 5
seconds continuously.
7. Allow cold engine to warm up a mini-
mum of five minutes.
8. When warm-up is completed, return the
hand lever to neutral position, and push
the button back to re-engage the shift.
The shift is ready for shift and throttle
operation.
9. Check that the lube oil pressure warn-
ing light and the charge lamp go off. If
any of the warning lamps do not go off
above 1,000 rpm, the engine is mal-
functioning and should be stopped im-
mediately. Consult your nearest engine
dealer.
NOTE: The H386 and below are equipped
with an
“
engine stop
”
pull lever. When
pulled all the way out, this will stop the
engine at any time.
Follow engine manufacturer
’
s recom-
mendations for types of fuel and oil. Use
of improper products can damage the
engine and void the warranty.
MOTORING YOUR DIESEL ENGINE
Before departure, remember to unplug the
shore power. When the engine is warm,
but prior to releasing the dock lines, move
the shift lever to forward and to reverse to
insure that it is working properly. To in-
crease RPMs, push throttle lever forward
and pull back to decrease RPMs.
IMPORTANT: When sailing, it is best to
start the engine before the sails are low-
ered. This way, it is possible to maneuver
if the engine should not start.
Your rigging will conduct electricity. Al-
ways check for overhead high tension
wires before proceeding. Once clear,
you may increase your speed in a rea-
sonable and safe manner as desired.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
If your Hunter is fitted with an electrical
system designed for both AC and DC. You
can operate any tool, appliance or other
device designed to function on regular
house current simply by plugging your
dockside power cord into a convenient
outlet on shore and turning your AC main
breaker on.
ELECTROCUTION HAZARD: If polarity
is reversed, DO NOT use the shore
power source. Immediately turn off the
power source and disconnect the shore
power cord. Reversed polarity is a dan-
gerous and potentially lethal condition
that may cause shock, electrocution, or
death.
