14.4 STARTING THE ENGINE
Before starting the engine, it is imperative:
- to open the fuel supply valve;
- to open the sea water intake valve of the engine;
- to open the sea water intake seacock for the stern gland;
- to switch on the battery supply by using the battery isolator switches;
- to put the control lever in neutral.
Make a habit of looking to see if sea water is pumped out with the exhaust gases as soon as
you start the engine. If no water runs out, stop the engine immediately. Check the coolant flow.
The engine compartment bilge fan is activated automatically when the engine is started.
- Before using the engine, make sure you carefully read the handbook
provided by the engine manufacturer.
- Always start the engine with the control lever in neutral.
- Learn how to judge the necessary distance of deceleration for the vessel to
come to a complete stop (The reverse gear is not a brake).
