Running an engine with an inadequate supply of antifreeze, or with
obstructed or restricted seawater pickups or strainers can cause serious
damage to the engine and its related systems.
After starting your engines, check the engine exhaust outlets. Refer to
9.7.3
Thru-Hull Fittings
for the location of the engine exhaust outlets.
If water is not being ejected from the outlets, immediately shut off the
engines. Determine why seawater is not being pumped through the
system. Have the problem corrected before restarting the engines.
If the engine temperature gauges show a higher than normal tempera-
ture, the cooling system may need to be repaired. If the needles move
quickly toward a high temperature reading, immediately shut off the
engines and have the cooling system inspected and repaired.
5.4 Exhaust System
The exhaust system for each engine consists of an exhaust manifold, a
muffler, and the exhaust pipes used to remove exhaust from the engine
to the atmosphere. If the exhaust system contains leaks or obstructions,
or has any other problem that prevents it from venting exhaust properly,
carbon monoxide may escape and endanger you and your passengers.
Check the exhaust system regularly for proper operation. Any change in
engine noise could indicate an exhaust system problem and should be
immediately investigated.
5.5 Fire Suppression System
An automatic fire suppression system is installed in the engine room.
This system provides extra security in the event of an engine room fire.
Refer to the OEM information for details on operating the fire suppres-
sion system. The system can also be activated manually using a release
control located at the helm.
If the fire suppression system is activated, anyone in the engine room
must immediately evacuate the room. The chemical used in the fire
suppression system can cause asphyxiation. Once the fire is extin-
guished and the system is deactivated, ventilate the engine room with
fresh air before reentering it.
The fire suppression chemical tank is installed on the center forward
bulkhead. Refer to
9.7.4 Engine Room
for the exact location of the fire
suppression chemical tank.
