Step 2:
Open the engine compartment and visually check as much of the fuel system from the tank to the engine as
you can see.
The engine box serves as a machinery guard. The engine must be OFF whenever the box is open. Clothing or body
parts can get caught in moving parts, causing serious injury or death. Keep away from moving parts!
Step 3:
This inspection requires the operation of the engine with the engine compartment open
and should be performed by your MasterCraft dealer.
Your dealer will start the engine with the
engine compartment open and look for signs of leakage. Because the fuel system is under pressure, any leaks
should be quickly noticeable. If any leaks are observed the engine must be immediately shut down. The leak
must be repaired before the engine is restarted. See your MasterCraft dealer for parts and service.
Because
the lines on late model MasterCraft boats are pressurized, they can be disconnected and/or removed ONLY
by using specialized tools that are not available to the public.
This is important! Fuel leakage can lead to a build-up of potentially explosive fumes within the engine
compartment. DO NOT IGNORE NOR OVERLOOK THIS INSPECTION AND REPAIR AS NECESSARY!

Inspect the Exhaust System for Leaks
This inspection requires the operation of the engine with
the engine compartment open, thereby creating a potentially dan-
gerous situation. When this inspection is performed, utmost care
must be exercised to avoid personal injury or death.
Step 1:
Ensure that the engine is OFF and that the engine safety
starting switch is disconnected. Be certain that the throt-
tle/shift control lever is in neutral. The engine must be
cool.
The engine box serves as a machinery guard. The engine must be OFF whenever the box is open. Clothing or body
parts can get caught in moving parts, causing serious injury or death. Keep away from moving parts.
Step 2:
Open the engine compartment and visually check the exhaust system from the engine to the transom for any
obvious damage to exhaust lines or the muffl er.
Step 3:
If leakage is apparent, tighten the hose clamps, being careful to avoid crimping the hose. If the leakage is
signifi cant, or is occurring at a location other than the joints (such as a split in a hose), see your MasterCraft
dealer for parts and service. This is important! Exhaust fumes can cause illness or impairment, including car-
bon monoxide poisoning. Equally important to consider, leakage can lead to a build-up of potentially explo-
sive fumes within the engine compartment. DO NOT IGNORE NOR OVERLOOK THIS INSPECTION! REPAIR
AS NECESSARY!
Check That the Battery Is Fully Charged
As you start your boat, check all gauges, but pay particular attention to the voltmeter.
While starting the engine, check that the voltmeter reads between 12.4 and 14.5. An erratic reading can be a
sign of low voltage. The voltmeter is your best indication of the state of your battery. It is not fool-proof, however. While
the reading will indicate that the battery is producing current, if in a previous operation you had reason to suspect a
problem with your battery, check with your MasterCraft dealer.
