BOAT OPERATION
Engine Inspection
Remember your “WOBBS” every morning. (Water (Coolant), Oil, Bilges (Inspect and
Pump-out), Belts, and Sea Strainer. Check the level of COOLANT in the expansion
tank. Check the level of your engine oil with the dipstick. Your dipstick is located on
the port side of the engine block. Look at the etch mark on the dipstick that
indicates proper level.
DO NOT OVERFILL!
Fill only if oil level is below the ½ mark.
Check the general condition of the hoses and belts.
Ensure the RAW WATER THRU-HULL is OPEN! (Lever position in-line with valve).
Check the sea strainer for debris. If necessary, close the thru-hull, open the strainer
lid, clean out debris, and reassemble
.
REOPEN THE THRU-HULL!
Start Up
SIENNE has a 90 hp Perkins diesel engine with a 3 bladed prop. There is an ignition,
throttle and transmission control in the cockpit. The vessel
cruises at 1800
rpm
to a
speed of 7.5 knots depending on water conditions. Running your engine much above
2000 will burn a lot more diesel with very little gain in boat speed.
The boat has a definite prop walk to port in reverse with little effect in forward.
When in reverse, be careful to keep a firm grip on the wheel. Use only low rpms in
reverse.
To start engine: Place transmission in the neutral position by placing the shift arm in
the straight-up position with the red button depressed. Turn the ignition switch on
and leave on while engine is running. Your oil and temperature alarms will sound.
Push the ignition button (~ 1/2" diameter) in. The engine should start immediately.
Depress the red button on the throttle and increase the rpm to 1100 to clear the
warning lights and then back the throttle to 1000 rpm.
Immediately check for water
exiting the exhaust at starboard side aft. This is an indicator that the thru-hull is
open and that water is keeping the engine cool.
Do not hold the ignition key in for more than 5 seconds at a time. If the engine does
not start the first time, wait about 15 seconds before trying again
. NEVER TURN OFF
THE KEY WHILE ENGINE IS RUNNING!
After the engine starts, warm it up at about 1000 rpms for about 5 minutes.
Observe that no warning lights are illuminated and no alarms are sounding. If so,
shut down the engine and assess the situation for a potential problem
. (Note: Was
there a lack of water exiting with exhaust? Are thru-hulls open and debris cleared
from sea-strainer? If a problem continues to occur, call SHYC Service.)
