(3) Start up of the engine in cold weather
When starting the engine under low temperature conditions (approx.0℃ or lower), use the air
heater (optional) to enable easier starting.
Turn the starter key from the OFF position to
●
GLOW. Continue to hold the key in the GLOW
position to heat up the air heater for about 15
seconds.
Then, return the starter key to START to start
●
the engine.
Note: When you choose the air heater (optional),
we recommend you to choose the control
panel (optional) having the air heater heat-
ed up indicating lamp. (New B, C, D panel).
When the air heater is heated up, the lamp
comes on to turn the key to START posi-
tion.
(4) After the Engine has Started
After the engine has started, check the following
items at a low engine speed:
1) Check that the gauges and alarm devices on
the control panel are normal.
2) Check that no water or oil leak from the engine.
3) Check that exhaust color, engine vibrations and
sound are normal.
4) When there are no problems, operate the engine at low speed with the boat still stopped
(warming up operation for about 5 minutes) to send lube oil to all parts of the engine.
5) Check that sufficient sea water is discharged from the seawater outlet pipe.
Operation with too little seawater discharge will damage the impeller of the seawater pump.
If seawater discharge is too small, stop the engine immediately, identify the cause and repair:
ls the Kingston cock open ?
●
ls the inlet of the Kingston cock on the hull bottom clogged ?
●
ls the seawater suction hose broken, or does the hose suck in air due to a loose joint ?
●
[NOTICE]
Do not leave the air heater on for longer
than 20 seconds at a time. Leaving the
air heater on for longer perfods of time
will result in damage.
[NOTICE]
The engine will be seized, if it is operated
when cooling seawater discharge is still
too small or load is applied without any
warming up operation.
