STARTING PROCEDURE

~WARNINGi

Carbon

monoxide

exhaust

gas

deadlyl

Ventilate the generator compartment for a minimum of 5 minutes prior to starting the generator. The ven-

tilating blowers remove potentially explosive gasoline fumes from the generator compartment and bilge.

Depress the ON switch and hold it depressed for 5

15 seconds

make sure the fuel system on the en-

gine

primed

the carburetor. Continuing

depress the ON switch, proceed to step

#3.

Depress the START switch. When the generator starts, release only the

START

switch. Keep the ON

switch depressed for a few seconds longer. (Keeping the ON switch depressed bypasses the oil pressure

shutdown circuit until the oil pressure rises enough to close the switch internally and maintain the ignition

circuit.)

Release the ON switch.

NOTE: The carburetor has an electric choke solenoid that closes the choke'when the start

switch is depressed, applying positive choke function during starting.

CAUTION

When starting the generator, all AC loads, especially large motors, should be switched OFF

until the engine has come up to speed and, in cold climates, starts

warm up. This precau-

tion will prevent damage caused by the unanticipated operation of AC machinery and will

prevent a cold engine from

stalling.

CAUTION

Prolonged cranking intervals without the engine starting can result in filling the engine-

mounted exhaust system with sea water coolant. This may happen because the sea water

pump

pumping sea water through the sea water cooling system during cranking. This sea

water can enter the engine's

cylinders by way

the exhaust manifold once the exhaust sys-

tem fills. Prevent this from happening by closing the sea water supply through-hull shut-off,

drain the exhaust muffler, and correct the cause for the excessive engine cranking needed

obtain a start. Engine damage resulting from this type of sea water entry

not

a warrantable

issue; the owner/operator should keep this

mind.

Once the engine starts, check instruments (if instruments are installed) for proper oil pressure and banery

charging voltage. Never attempt

engage the starter while the engine

running. Apply a light load

the

generator and

allow the engine's operating temperature

come up

130 - 150' F

(55

56'

before ap-

plying any heavy loads.

NOTE: Some unstable running may occur in a cold engine, but this condition should smooth

out as the operating temperature

reached (130 -

150'

F [55 -

66'

C]) and when a load

ap-

plied

the generator.
