below and the adjacent photograph, which
illustrates the open and closed positions of
the engine seawater intake valves).
The opened position is on the left above.
Visually examine both seawater strain-
ers (optional) to ensure they are free of
debris. Clean if debris is noted.
Check all cooling and lubricating fl uids
(See photograph below, which illustrates
the location of the engine oil “dipstick”).
Add engine oil or transmission oil, if need-
ed, but DO NOT over
fi ll.
DO NOT remove the cooling system
fi ller cap when the engine is hot. Allow
the engine to cool and then remove
the pressure cap slowly, allowing the
pressure to vent. Hot coolant, under
pressure, may discharge violently and
result in serious personal injury and
burns.
Place the transmission shift controls at
the helm station in the neutral position.
The feel of a “detent” midway between the
forward and reverse positions indicates
the neutral position.
Place the throttle controls in the idle or
“down” position.
Turn the ignition key to ON, but not to
START. The engine alarm buzzer should
sound and the automatic
fi re extinguisher
system indicator light should illuminate.
Turn the ignition key to START and hold
in this position until the engine starts. If the
engine starter motor does not operate, the
neutral safety switch may be out of adjust-
ment. Slowly and carefully move the trans-
mission shift control lever up and down
until the starter motor operates. See your
Silverton Dealer or a competent technician
as soon as possible to obtain the proper
adjustment for the neutral safety switch.
Release the ignition switch as soon as the
engine starts. The engine alarm buzzer
should turn OFF when the engine oil pres-
sure reaches normal operating range. The
automatic
fi re extinguisher indicator light
should remain illuminated.
