BLOWER SYSTEM
Models
All
Purpose
The blower system is one of the most critical systems on the boat. A
natural by-product of operating the engine is the creation of unseen
fumes. Carbon monoxide is discussed in the Safety section of this
Owner’s Manual. The engine will also create flammable, ignitable
gasoline and/or battery fumes. Dispensed into the open air, they are
quickly diffused and pose little to no threat to well-being. However,
if the fumes are not released by opening the engine compartment
and operating the blower for a minimum of four (4) minutes before
starting the engine (even if the engine has not been operated for
some time), the accumulated fumes may explode when the engine
is started.
To prevent a possible explosion, operate the blower for at least
four (4) minutes before starting the engine and always when at idle
or slow running speed. Explosive gasoline and/or battery fumes
may be present in the engine compartment. Failure to operate the
blower as instructed may cause improper ventilation of the boat
engine and bilge areas, and fuel vapors can accumulate in this
area, causing a fire or explosion which may result in serious injury
or death!
