4.2.2 Before Starting
While this is a practice often neglected on an auxiliary, a
power system should always be inspected before starting.
At the very least, an inspection should be made at the
start of a cruise, and before starting the engine after an
extended period under sail. The following items should
receive particular attention:
Visually inspect the engine space and the engine. Look for
fuel and/or water leaks, and any other problems that might
preclude starting.
Ventilate engine compartment by running the blower.
WARNING! ALTHOUGH LESS VOLATILE AND FAR SAFER THAN GASO-
LINE, DIESEL FUEL IS FLAMMABLE, AND A FUEL LEAK CAN CAUSE A
SERIOUS FIRE!
Check fresh water level in manifold.
Ensure that the engine seacock is open.
Ensure that fuel valve is open.
Check fuel supply.
Check engine and V-drive oil levels.
Ensure that the battery switch is 110N11.
Ensure that the transmission control is in “NEUTRAL".
4.2.3 STARTING
Normal starts, cold weather starts, starting procedures
after a long shutdown, and other operational suggestions
are contained in the engine manual. Some additional sugges-
tions are listed below:
CAUTION! DO NOT OPERATE STARTER FOR MORE THAN 10 SECONDS
AT A TIME.
Forward, Neutral, Reverse. When shifting from forward to
reverse, or vice versa, the lever should be held in the
neutral position for a moment before proceeding. Shifting
should be performed with RPM reduced to idle.
4.2.4 Stopping
To stop the engine:
Place throttle in the idle position.
