Generator Power (If Equipped)
Your boat may come equipped with a generator. Before using your generator, read the generator instructions manual
for information on pre-start checks, break-in procedures and detailed instructions.
•
Run the bilge blower for a minimum of four minutes before starting the generator. Leave the blower on while the
generator is running unless the boat is running at cruising speed.
•
Make sure the generator’s seawater pickup seacock is Open before starting and during running of the generator.
•
The generator’s starter switch and breakers are located on the AC electrical panel.
•
Gas generator: Simultaneously press the oil pressure button and turn the starter switch until the generator starts.
•
Service the filters attached to the generator as directed in the manufacturer’s manual.
•
The generator’s coolant mixture consists of equal parts of water and antifreeze (Ethylene Glycol). Check coolant
(anti-freeze) levels often at the generator-mounted expansion tank and at the coolant recovery bottle, located near
the generator.
•
Check the generator’s seawater strainer for leaks and clean out debris (see the Seawater Strainer section of
this supplement).
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD!
•
Generators are a source of dangerous carbon monoxide gas (CO).
Check the generator exhaust system for leaks before each use.

•
Use the bilge blowers for a minimum of four minutes before starting the generator. Leave

Use of the blower system is not a guarantee that explosive fumes have been removed. If you
smell any fuel, do not start the engines. If the engines are already running, immediately shut
Off the engines and all electrical accessories and investigate.

SYSTEM DAMAGE HAZARD!
•
Always make sure the generator’s seawater pickup seacock is Open before and during the
running of the generator.

Never use the generator starter for more than 30 seconds. If the generator does not start,
wait at least 30 seconds before another start attempt is made.
•
After starting the generator, wait for the generator to stabilize before turning On component
breakers on the AC panel.
