Owner’s Manual Supplement
Generator Power (Option)
Your yacht may come equipped with an
(optional) gas or diesel generator. Prior to
initially operating your generator, read the
generator manual for detailed information on
pre-start checks, break-in procedures and
starting instructions.
Observe the following about your generator:
•
Polarity has been established in the instal-
lation of the generator, therefore the polar-
ity lights will not function while operating
the generator.
•
The generator and the port engine use the
same battery (see illustration on page 9).
•
Generator oil pressure, water temperature,
and voltage gauges are located on the
main distribution panel in the aft salon.
•
The generator’s main circuit breaker is
located on the generator.
•
The starboard fuel tank supplies the
generator’s fuel.
•
In addition to servicing the filters attached
to the generator, the filters/separators
(located near the fuel line valves) should
be serviced as described in the manufac-
turer’s manual.
•
The coolant mixture installed at the fac-
tory consists of equal parts of water and
antifreeze (Ethylene Glycol). The coolant
bottle for the main generator is located aft
of the salon engine access hatch opening
(refer to photograph on page 21).
•
Frequently check the generator’s seawater
strainer for leaks and/or debris (refer to
Sea Strainer section on page 32).

SYSTEM DAMAGE HAZARD!
•
Always verify the generator’s seawater pickup system’s intake seacock is in the open
position prior to starting and throughout generator operation.
•
Never operate the generator starter for more than 30 seconds. If the generator does not
start, wait at least 30 seconds before another start attempt is made.
•
After starting the generator, wait for the generator to stabilize before activating component
breakers on the AC panel.
CAUTI ON!
