Installation Checks and Startup
Before starting the genset
, review the installation
checklist below for those items that do not require
the genset to be actually running. Make necessary
reconnections, modifications and repairs. Then
start and operate the genset in accordance with the
Operator’s Manual, observing all of its instructions
and precautions. Continue working through the
installation checklist with the genset running, mak-
ing necessary reconnections, modifications and re-
pairs. Check off (
√
) each item that can be answered
positively. Do not place the genset in service until
each item has been checked off.
The RAW WATER PICKUP TEST was con-
ducted during the sea trials to establish the wa-
ter line and a siphon break was installed, if
found necessary.
The sea trials established that at all boat
speeds enough raw water is picked up for gen-
set engine and exhaust cooling.
The sea trials established that there is no back-
flow through the exhaust through-hull fitting or
water separator drain hose when the boat is
under way, forward or reverse.
Genset compartment ventilation meets regula-
tions and the sea trials established that ventila-
tion is sufficient to maintain acceptable genset
compartment temperatures, even while “heat
soaking” after returning and docking.
All electrical devices used in spaces where
gasoline vapors can accumulate are
Ignition
Protected.
The living quarters are sealed against leaks
from spaces where exhaust and gasoline va-
pors can accumulate.
The genset is securely mounted.
There is adequate clearance for conducting all
maintenance specified in the Operator’s Manu-
al.
The coolant recovery tank is mounted properly
and is accessible for inspection and filling.
The entire exhaust system is accessible for in-
spection and replacement.
Fuel tanks, piping, hoses and filters comply
with regulations and are accessible for inspec-
tion and replacement.
The genset is bonded to the boat grounding
system in accordance with regulations.
All grounded cranking motor circuits are con-
nected by properly sized common bonding
conductors.
If required, the kit for isolated DC ground was
installed.
An approved transfer switch prevents intercon-
nections between shore power and genset.
AC wiring methods, materials and bonding for
grounding meet regulations.
A properly sized battery has been installed,
serviced and charged. The battery is securely
mounted in an adequately ventilated space
and the positive (
+
) terminal is shielded from
accidental contact.
The remote LCD control panel functions as in-
tended and is not mounted where gasoline va-
pors can accumulate.
Emergency and/or CO detection and shut-
down devices have been connected and have
been tested to determine that the genset shuts
down as intended.
The genset is properly sized for the application,
the voltage and frequency are correct and the
loads across a multi-phase generator are bal-
anced.
Exhaust back pressure is acceptable.
The exhaust system is leak-free and conveys
all engine exhaust outside, away from win-
dows, doors and vents.
The fuel supply system is leak-free.
The engine coolant and raw water systems are
leak-free.
The engine has the proper levels of oil and
coolant.
The raw water pump has been primed and the
sea cock is open.
All operators have been thoroughly briefed on
the Operator’s Manual and its safety precau-
tions—especially concerning the dangers of
carbon monoxide and gasoline vapors—and
can demonstrate how to operate, maintain and
troubleshoot the genset as explained therein.
