5.4 Fueling Instructions
WARNING
FUEL IS VERY FLAMMABLE. BE CAREFUL WHEN FILLING
THE FUEL TANKS. NO SMOKING. NEVER FILL THE TANK
WHILE AN ENGINE IS RUNNING. FILL THE FUEL TANKS IN AN
OPEN AREA. DO NOT FILL THE TANKS NEAR OPEN FLAMES.
CAUTION
TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO THE FUEL SYSTEM, USE ONLY A
GOOD GRADE OF GASOLINE FOR GASOLINE ENGINES OR
DIESEL FUEL FOR DIESEL ENGINES. DO NOT USE FUEL
THAT CONTAINS HARSH ADDITIVES OR IS AN ALCOHOL
BLEND. ANY DAMAGE DONE TO THE FUEL SYSTEM THAT
IS THE RESULT OF USE OF AN ALCOHOL BLEND IS NOT
COVERED BY THE SCOUT WARRANTY. REFER TO THE
ENGINE MANUFACTURER OWNER’S MANUAL REGARDING
FUEL REQUIREMENTS FOR YOUR ENGINES.
WARNING
DO NOT CONFUSE THE FUEL FILL DECK PLATES WITH
THE WATER OR WASTE PUMP OUT DECK PLATE. THESE
PLATES ARE LABELED ACCORDINGLY. THE DIESEL FUEL
FILL DECK PLATE IS LOCATED ON THE SAME SIDE OF THE
BOAT AS THE WASTE PUMP OUT DECK PLATE AND YOU
SHOULD BE CAREFUL NOT TO ACCIDENTLY PUMP DIESEL
FUEL INTO THE WASTE HOLDING TANK. IF GASOLINE
OR DIESEL FUEL IS ACCIDENTALLY PUMPED INTO THE
WATER OR WASTE TANK, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO PUMP IT
OUT YOURSELF. WATER AND WASTE PUMPS ARE NOT
DESIGNED TO PUMP FUEL AND A FIRE OR EXPLOSION
COULD RESULT. CONTACT YOUR DEALER OR THE SCOUT
CUSTOMER SERVICE DEPARTMENT FOR ASSISTANCE IN
HAVING THE FUEL PROFESSIONALLY REMOVED.
Preparing The Boat For Fueling
Use the following procedure to prepare the boat
for fueling at a marina fuel pump:
• Make sure the boat is securely moored and all
engines are off.
• Make sure all switches are in the OFF position.
• Make sure all passengers leave the boat.
• Close all doors and hatches.
WARNING
GASOLINE FUEL VAPORS THAT ACCUMULATE IN THE
BILGE, AFT SYSTEMS ROOM, MID EQUIPMENT ROOM OR
CABIN WHILE FUELING CAN EXPLODE!! FUEL VAPORS
ARE HEAVIER THAN AIR AND CAN ACCUMULATE IF THEY
ARE CARRIED BY THE WIND INTO THE BILGE OR CABIN
THROUGH OPEN DOORS, HATCHES OR VENTS. ALWAYS
CLOSE DOORS AND HATCHES BEFORE FUELING.
• Estimate how much fuel is needed and avoid
overfilling the fuel tank.
Fueling The Boat
In order to comply with U.S. EPA emission regula-
tions, boats sold in the United States are equipped
with special fuel systems that reduce the flow of
fuel vapors from the fuel system to the atmo-
sphere when fueling operations are complete.
These fuel systems meet U.S. EPA emission stan-
dards and are designed to maintain a specific air
space at the top of the fuel tank that provides
proper tank ventilation and protection for emission
control components. Special valves in the fuel
tank vent and fill systems and a shutoff valve in
marina fuel pump nozzles are designed to auto-
matically stop the fuel flow when the tank is full
and maintain this air space.
Notice:
When the fuel tank is full, the shutoff valve in
the marina fuel pump nozzle will activate and
automatically shut off the flow, indicating
that the tank is filled to the maximum level.
You should stop filling the tank at this point
and never attempt to “top off” the tank. At
-
tempting to “top off” the tank could damage
fuel level control valves.
WARNING
STATIC ELECTRICITY GENERATED BY FLOWING FUEL
CAN CAUSE A FIRE OR EXPLOSION. TO PREVENT STATIC
SPARKS WHEN FILLING THE TANK, MAKE SURE THE
NOZZLE IS ALWAYS IN CONTACT WITH THE FUEL FILL
