J88 OWNER MANUAL 37
Starting Up the Engine
1) Turn the battery selector switch to ALL. Turn off all electronic instruments to avoid a voltage spike to the
instruments while cranking the engine.
2) Make sure that the throttle control is in neutral, or advanced neutral
3) Push the power button on the panel and wait for alarm sound, press the start button (The alarm will continue
until the engine starts or the power button is pushed again.)
4) Release button when the engine starts. If the engine does not start in 10 seconds, turn off panel and repeat
process. Advance the throttle slightly (in neutral), wait 10 seconds, and repeat steps 3 and 4.
5) When the engine starts, the oil-pressure and charging warning light will go out and the engine-alarm buzzer
will stop. If they do not, stop the engine immediately.
6) Once the engine starts, set the throttle at about 1,000 RPM. If all engine indications are normal, warm up
the engine for 10 minutes.
7) Briefly test the operation of FORWARD and REVERSE gears at the dock with the dock lines in place.
CAUTION: If the engine does not start after a pro-longed period (do not exceed 10 seconds at a time) of
cranking, be sure to drain the water-lock muffler and exhaust loop. ACCUMULATED WATER IN THE
MUFFLER MAY FLOW BACK INTO THE ENGINE MANIFOLD AND DAMAGE THE ENGINE IF THE
MOTOR IS CRANKED FOR A PRO-LONGED PERIOD AND DOES NOT START.
IMPORTANT: Check that a flow of raw-water cooling water is exiting from the transom. If cooling water is not
being discharged, the engine will overheat: shut down the engine immediately. Check that the raw-water
strainer basket is free of blockage. Check that the raw-water engine-intake valve is open on the Saildrive leg.
If necessary, check underneath the hull to make sure that the raw-water intake holes on the Saildrive leg are
not blocked.
Shutting Down the Engine
1) Move the throttle to the IDLE (vertical) position.
2) Run the engine at IDLE long enough to allow the engine to cool down.
3) Push the button on the engine instrument panel until engine stops.
4) When the engine-alarm sounds, turn off panel.
IMPORTANT: Do not stop the engine with the decompression levers except in an extreme emergency. If
decompression lever is used to shut down the engine, fuel will spray out and accumulate on top of pistons,
creating a danger of explosion the next time engine is started.
Fueling
When taking on fuel, follow these safety precautions:
1) Secure your boat to the dock using bow, stern, and spring lines.
2) Turn OFF all mechanical and electrical equipment, including the engine, battery selector switch, cabin
lights, and electronics.
