Introduction
Unit Identifi cation
Servicing of marine engines and generator sets presents
unique problems. In many cases boats cannot be moved
to a repair facility. Marine engines cannot be compared
to the servicing of automobiles, trucks or even farm
equipment. Failures often occur in remote areas far
from competent assistance. Marine engines are taxed
far more severely than auto or truck engines; therefore,
maintenance schedules must be adhered to more
strictly.
Failures can begin with minor problems that are
overlooked and become amplifi ed when not corrected
during routine maintenance.
As operator, it is your obligation to learn about your
equipment and its proper maintenance. This is not a
comprehensive technical service manual. Nor will it
make the reader into an expert mechanic. Its aim is to
aid you in maintaining your unit properly.
