Starting

Before Starting

For your safety and to increase your enjoyment of your
time boating, perform the following checks before start-
ing your engine;

 DANGER!

Explosion hazard! Never operate an engine/boat with
a suspected or actual fuel leak.

To prevent a possible explosion or fire, check the
engine and engine compartment for the presence of
gasoline fumes.

Only start the engine in a well-ventilated area. If
operating the engine in an enclosed space, ensure
that there is proper ventilation in order to remove
exhaust gases from the area. See 

Carbon Monox-

ide page 9

.

Thoroughly familiarize yourself with operation of
remote control supplied with your boat before pro-
ceeding.

Never use start spray or similar agents to start an
engine. This may cause an explosion in the inlet
manifold.

Before you to start your engine, be sure to perform
the inspection items provided in the daily checklist
located in 

Maintenance Schedule

.

Do not start the engine out of the water unless you
have connected a hose with running water to the
engine flushing port (see 

Engine Flush page 45

 for

instructions).

Before using your boat, see 

Static Water

Line page 66

 for important information about the

load (weight) on the boat and how it relates to water
ingestion in the engine.
