5. Check that sufficient cooling water is
discharged from the seawater outlet
pipe. Operation with too small seawa-
ter discharge will burn the impeller of
the seawater pump. If seawater dis-
charge is too small, stop the engine
immediately. Identify the cause and
repair.
• Is the Kingston cock open?
• Is the inlet of the Kingston cock on
the full bottom clogged?
• Is the seawater suction hose bro-
ken, or does the hose suck in air
due to a loose joint?
The engine will seize if it is operated
when cooling seawater discharge is
too small or if load is applied without
any warming up operation.
3.3.3 Operation
(1) Engine Acceleration and Decelera-
tion
Use the governor handle to control
acceleration and deceleration. Move the
handle slowly.
(2) FORWARD-NEUTRAL
(boat stopped) - REVERSE Clutch
Use the clutch handle to change from
FORWARD to NEUTRAL (boat stopped)
to REVERSE.

Shifting the clutch while operating at high
speed or not pushing the handle fully into
position (half clutch) will result in damage
to clutch parts and abnormal wear.
1. Before using the clutch, be sure to
move the governor handle to a low
speed position (1000 rpm or less).
Move the governor handle to a high
speed position after completing clutch
operation.
2. When changing between FORWARD
and REVERSE, bring the clutch to
NEUTRAL and pause before slowly
shifting to the desired position. Do not
shift abruptly from FORWARD to
REVERSE or vice versa.
3. Move the clutch handle accurately and
fully into the FORWARD, NEUTRAL,
and REVERSE positions.
3.3.4 Cautions During Operation
Always be on the lookout for problems
during engine operation.
Pay particular attention to the following:
(1) Is sufficient water being dis-
charged from the seawater outlet
pipe?
If the discharge is small, stop the engine
immediately, identify the cause and repair.
(2) Is the exhaust colour normal?
The continuous emission of black exhaust
indicates engine overloading. This
shortens the engine’s life and should be
avoided.
