WARNING: The bilge can accumulate explosive fumes. The bilge
blower will evacuate the fumes. The bilge blower must be run for a minimum
of 10 minutes prior to cranking the engine.
WARNING: Do not start or run the engine in a closed or poorly
ventilated area where exhaust gases may accumulate. All internal
combustion engines give off various fumes and gases while running. Avoid
breathing these gases as they may contain poisonous carbon monoxide and
other gases, which can endanger your health or life if inhaled steadily for a
few minutes.
CAUTION: If the engine stalls or falters during starting, wait 3 to 4
seconds before reengaging the starter. This will prevent possible damage
to the starter or the engine. Do NOT operate the starter for periods longer
than 5-8 seconds at a time. An interval of at least 1 minute should be
observed between cranking periods to protect the starter from overheating.
