SAFE BOATING TIPS
PAGE
17
STARTING YOUR DIESEL ENGINE
1. Visually check engine compartment to
see that the throttle linkage, shifting
controls, electrical connections and fuel
lines are properly secured.
2.
Before each start
check oil in engine
and transmission.
3. Insure that the engine shut-off cable is
properly secured and operating.
4. Place the shift lever in the neutral
position. Pull out the button beside the
shift lever to disengage the shift. On
single lever controls, lift the collar under
the shift lever knob and move the lever
forward to advance the throttle for
neutral warm-up.
5. Insert the starter key and turn to the
“
on
”
position.
6. Press the starter button and hold until
engine starts, then release. The buzzer
and/or light should then go off.
Press
the starter button no longer than 5
seconds continuously.
7. Allow cold engine to warm up a
minimum of five minutes.
8. When warm-up is completed, return the
hand lever to neutral position, and push
the button back to re-engage the shift.
The shift is ready for shift and throttle
operation.
9. Check that the lube oil pressure
warning light and the charge lamp go
off. If any of the warning lamps do not
go off above 1,000 rpm, the engine is
malfunctioning and should be stopped
immediately. Consult your nearest
engine dealer.
NOTE: The H386 and below are equipped
with an
“
engine stop
”
pull lever. When
pulled all the way out, this will stop the
engine at any time.
Follow
engine
manufacturer
’
s
recommendations for types of fuel and
oil. Use of improper products can
damage the engine and void the
warranty.
MOTORING YOUR DIESEL ENGINE
Before departure, remember to unplug the
shore power. When the engine is warm,
but prior to releasing the dock lines, move
the shift lever to forward and to reverse to
insure that it is working properly. To
increase RPMs, push throttle lever
forward and pull back to decrease RPMs.
IMPORTANT: When sailing, it is best to
start the engine before the sails are
lowered. This way, it is possible to
maneuver if the engine should not start.
Your rigging will conduct electricity.
Always check for overhead high tension
wires before proceeding. Once clear,
you may increase your speed in a
reasonable
and
safe
manner
as
desired.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Your Hunter is fitted with an electrical
system designed for both AC and DC.
While in port, you can operate any tool,
appliance or other device designed to
function on regular house current simply
by plugging your dockside power cord into
a convenient outlet on shore and turning
your AC main breaker on.
ELECTROCUTION HAZARD: If polarity
is reversed, DO NOT use the shore
power source. Immediately turn off the
power source and disconnect the shore
power cord. Reversed polarity is a
dangerous
and
potentially
lethal
condition that may cause shock,
electrocution, or death.
