Chapter 11 Engine Operation; Engine On/Off - Hyundai Seasall S270S Series Installation & Operation Manual

INSTALLATION & OPERATION MANUAL

1. ENGINE ON/OFF

1) Before starting the engine, you should check engine oil, coolant, gearbox oil, fuel gauge,
seawater pump, battery, seacocks and so on.
2) When you start the engine, check that the engine throttle lever① is in the neutral position.
If not, the engine may not start or there is possibility of the boat moving inadvertently. If
your boat is equipped with a neutral safety switch, the engine will only crank when the
engine throttle lever is in the neutral position. You can also check this on the EOI.
3) After starting the engine, release the key② immediately to prevent damage to the starter
motor.
5) Avoid maximum rpm and WOT (Wide Open Throttle) before the cold engine is fully
warmed up.
6) When cold starting, it may take a few more seconds to start the engine.
7) If the engine does not start in 10 seconds, release the key and wait 10 seconds. After 10
seconds try again. This method can help avoid starter motor damage.
DO NOT DRIVE IN SPACE WHERE THERE IS NO AIR CIRCULATION.
EMISSION GAS IS HARMFUL.
