use by the operator. It is important to be familiar with all controls
so
as to know how to
properly operate your engine.
Refer Fig.
1.
To stop engine, the stop lever should be moved as far as it will travel towards the front of the engine
and held until engine is fully stopped. This lever cuts
off
the supply of fuel to the injection pump. (NOTE before
shutting down engine it should always be allowedto idle for about two minutes, particularly after extended periods
of cruising
-
This is particularly importantwith Turbo and Turbo lntercooled engines).
Engine speed control is the longer lever at side of injectionpump (Fig.
2.)
Movingtoward front of engine increases
engine speed.
An excess fuel device permits additional fuel to be supplied by the injectionpump to assist in
from cold. This device is fully automatic in operation.
NOTE:
All
engines are equipped with an
electric shut down solenoid. To stop press
stop button until engine stops running, then
release button.

To start engine when cold
-
make certain that transmission is in neutral position and that all boat accessory
equipment (bilge pump,extra alternator or generator,hydraulic pump,winch, etc.) isdisengaged. Check that engine
stop lever is fully towards rear (flywheel end) of engine. Set throttle lever to

As

up
(idling) speed of
700-
800
RPM.
If
engine fails to start within
5
seconds, release starting button. Try again after
allowing sufficient time for all moving parts to stop. Once engine has started, it should be allowed to reach 170°F
before full load is applied.
To restartengine when warm, same procedureas above except set speed control lever to approximatelymid

Prior to the first start after a turbocharger has been newly installed or
if
for any reason the oil supply to the
turbocharger has beendisconnected,you should insurethat theturbocharger housing isfilled with engine
oil
before
reconnectingthe
oil
feed pipe. In these circumstances,
or
in cases where the engine is being started
for
thefirst
time after an oil change or after a period of
4
weeks or more without use, the following procedure must be used;
1)
Engage either manual or electric stop control
2)
Crank the engine with the starter motor for
15
seconds
3)
Disengagestop control
4)
Start engine in normal fashion and allow to idle for
30
seconds minimum before applying load
This ensures an adequate oil supply to the turbocharger bearing, The engine should be allowed to idle, without
load, for
2
minutes prior to shut down to enable the oil to dissipatethe heat from the turbocharger bearing.
