SYSTEM OPERATIONS-52
DO NOT remove the Cooling System Filler Cap
when the Engine is hot. Allow the Engine to
cool and then remove the pressure cap slowly,
allowing the pressure to vent. Hot coolant, under
pressure, may discharge violently, and result in
serious personal injury and burns.
Place the transmission shift controls at the Helm
Station in the neutral position. The feel of a “detent”
midway between the forward and reverse positions
indicates the neutral position.
Place the throttle controls in the idle or “down”
position.
Turn the ignition key to ON, but not to START.
The Engine alarm buzzer should sound and the
Automatic Fire Extinguisher System Indicator Light
should illuminate.
Turn the ignition key to START and hold in this
position until the Engine starts. If the Engine Starter
Motor does not operate, the neutral safety switch may
be out of adjustment. Slowly and carefully move the
transmission shift control lever up and down until the
starter motor operates. See your Silverton Dealer
or a competent technician as soon as possible to
obtain the proper adjustment for the neutral safety
switch. Release the ignition switch as soon as the
Engine starts. The Engine alarm buzzer should turn
OFF when the Engine oil pressure reaches normal
operating range. The Automatic Fire Extinguisher
indicator light should remain illuminated.
If the Engine fails to start within thirty (30)
seconds, release the ignition switch. Allow
the Starter Motor to cool for at least sixty (60)
seconds and then try again to start the Engine.
Prolonged starting attempts may result in Starter
Motor overheating and damage.
Failure to release the ignition switch from the
START position after the Engine starts may result
in serious damage to the Starter Motor and/or
Engine Flywheel.
If the engine alarm buzzer DOES NOT turn OFF,
turn OFF the Engine immediately if the oil pres-
sure gauge displays no, or very low, oil pressure.
See your Silverton Dealer for inspection and
repair, if necessary. No, or very low, oil pres-
sure may cause serious damage to the internal
mechanism of your Engine(s).
If the Automatic Fire Extinguisher Indicator
Light DOES NOT remain illuminated, turn OFF
the engine(s) immediately and follow the proper
procedure to check for
fi
re aboard your yacht
as detailed in the Automatic Fire Extinguisher
System Section of this Owner’s Manual. A
fi
re
aboard your yacht may result in serious personal
injury or death.
If one of the batteries is “dead” or not suf
fi
ciently
charged to start your Engine, depress the “Parallel
Start Switch” simultaneously while turning the ignition
switch to START. The parallel start switch draws
power from both batteries during the starting proce-
dure and it is located on the Helm Switch Panel (Refer
to the Electrical pages of this section of your Owner’s
Manual for a location of the Switch). Release both
switches immediately after the Engine starts.
