2.2 Marine Inspection
Kohler Co. recommends that all boat owners have their
vessels inspected at the start of each boating season by
the US Coast Guard, the local Coast Guard Auxiliary, or
local state agency.
Kohler Co. also recommends having the generator’s
exhaust system inspected at the start of each boating
season by an authorized Kohler
r
distributor/dealer.
Repair any problems identified before operating the
generator set.
Carbon monoxide.
Can cause severe nausea,
fainting, or death.
The exhaust system must be
leakproof and routinely inspected.
WARNING
Carbon monoxide symptoms. Carbon monoxide can
cause severe nausea, fainting, or death. Carbon monoxide
is a poisonous gas present in exhaust gases. Carbon
monoxide is an odorless, colorless, tasteless, nonirritating gas
that can cause death if inhaled for even a short time. Carbon
monoxide poisoning symptoms include but are not limited to
the following:
D
Light-headedness, dizziness
D
Physical fatigue, weakness in
joints and muscles
D
Sleepiness, mental fatigue,
inability to concentrate
or speak clearly, blurred vision
D
Stomachache, vomiting, nausea
If experiencing any of these symptoms and carbon monoxide
poisoning is possible, seek fresh air immediately and remain
active. Do not sit, lie down, or fall asleep. Alert others to the
possibility of carbon monoxide poisoning. Seek medical
attention if the condition of affected persons does not improve
within minutes of breathing fresh air.
Inspecting the exhaust system. Carbon monoxide can
cause severe nausea, fainting, or death. For the safety of
the craft’s occupants, install a carbon monoxide detector.
Never operate the generator set without a functioning carbon
monoxide detector. Inspect the detector before each
generator set use.
Operating the generator set. Carbon monoxide can cause
severe nausea, fainting, or death. Be especially careful if
operating the generator set when moored or anchored under
calm conditions because gases may accumulate. If operating
the generator set dockside, moor the craft so that the exhaust
discharges on the lee side (the side sheltered from the wind).
Always be aware of others, making sure your exhaust is
directed away from other boats and buildings.

* Maximum permitted inclination angle for an engine in operation
and with minimum oil level. The maximum permitted operating
angle may only be applied for short periods. The maximum
forwards or rearwards operating angles are not applicable to their
full extent if the engine is inclined laterally at the same time.

2.4 Operation in European Union
Member Countries
This generator set is specifically intended and approved
for operation below the deck in the engine compartment.
Operation above the deck and/or outdoors would
constitute a violation of European Union Directive 2000/
14/EC noise emission standard.
Sound Levels
A- weighted emission sound pressure level greater than
80 dB(A):
The A- weighted emission sound pressure level at 1 m:
Lpa = 103.7 dB(A),
associated uncertainty, Kpa = 2 dB(A).
Sound pressure levels per ANSI S1.13, ASA 118, and
ISO 6798 as applicable. Reference sound pressure is
20

Pa.
The A- weighted sound power level:
Lwa = 114.8 dB(A),
associated uncertainty, Kpa = 3 dB(A).
The measurement standard selected from those
referenced was ISO 3745.
Note: Sound pressure levels are specific to testing
performed in a factory-controlled environment to
specific standards. Actual sound pressure
achieved will vary depending on each installation
and on-site conditions such as existing ambient
noise, instrumentation used, installation
methods, objects around the generator set, and
generator set variations.
