Fuel System - Bayliner 3788 Command Bridge Owner's Manual

10 CHAPTER 3: COMPONENTS / SYSTEMS
4. Turn the Starter switch to start, releasing it as soon as the generator starts. NEVER operate the starter for more
than 30 seconds. If the generator does not start, wait at least 30 seconds before another start attempt is made.
• If your fuel system features a fuel management board (located on the forward bulkhead in the engine room) fuel
to run the generator is supplied from either the port or starboard fuel tanks (see the fuel system diagrams in the
next section).
Environmental Hazard - If your boat features a diesel fuel system and a fuel management
board; the generator fuel selector valves MUST be set so that return fuel is routed back to the
same tank from which it was drawn. Otherwise, generator fuel drawn from a partially full tank
and returned to a full tank may spill overboard through the tank venting system.
• If your fuel system does not feature a fuel management board,
fuel to run the generator is supplied from the starboard fuel tank
(see the fuel system diagrams in the next section).
• In addition to servicing the filters attached to the diesel genera-
tor, the filter/separator located near the fuel line valves should be
serviced as described in the manufacturer's operating manual.
• The coolant mixture installed at the factory consists of equal
parts of water and antifreeze (Ethylene Glycol).
• Oil pressure and water temperature gauges are adjacent to the
AC panel and monitor the engine functions of your generator.
Gauge readings during normal generator operation are: Temper-
ature between 165° to 195° F; Oil pressure between 35-55 PSI.
To activate the AC system under generator power; switch the genera-
tor master circuit breakers to ON and then turn on each individual
component breaker as required.

Fuel System

FIRE/EXPLOSION HAZARD - It is very important that the fuel system be
inspected thoroughly the first time it is filled and at each subsequent filling.
The Fueling Instructions in the Owner's Manual and the Fuel Recommendations
in the engine operation manual must be followed.
Air in the diesel supply system can stop an engine or severely restrict performance. If you
suspect air in your diesel fuel lines, refer to your engine operation manual for detailed
instructions on how to "bleed" the system.
Avoid the storage or handling of gear near the fuel lines, fittings and tank.
Carefully read the Fuel Section of the engine operation manual included in your yacht's owner's packet. Give special
attention to the subject of Fuel Recommendations. Filters/separators should be inspected periodically for debris and
replaced as needed according to the instructions detailed in your engine manual, generator manual and in the filter lit-
erature supplied in your yacht's owner's packet.
