hybrid operation, maintenance and warranty manual - Steyr Motors

2.2 Before Starting a Hybrid EngineFamiliarize yourself with the handling of the boat, in particular how to use transmission, and then proceed asfollows:1. Check the bilge for excessive water accumulation. Always keep the bilge clean and dry.Never allow the water level in the engine compartment to exceed the bottom of the oil pan. If water accumulationis unavoidable, install a bilge pump with an automatic control switch.For Hybrid systems ensure optically that all Hybrid Electrical Components (e.g. Generator, Hybrid Control Unit(HCU), U,V,W-cables etc.) are not affected by water.NOTE: The water level in the boat's engine compartment will increase when the boat is operated at a highincline before planing speed is reached. Excessive water accumulation in the engine compartment/ bilge maycause engine failures.2. Open the raw water intake valve for Diesel engine and Hybrid Cooling SystemNOTE: Operate the engine and Hybrid system only while the raw water supply is assured or the cooling systemis equipped with a fl ushing device. The engine- raw water pump and/or Hybrid electrical cooling pumps will bedamaged and/or will overheat if operated without cooling water.3. Open the fuel stop valve.NOTE: Only start the engine when a bubble-free fuel supply is guaranteed. Prior to fi rst start-up of theengine (after installation, after storage etc.), purge the fuel system by "ignition ON" for 6 x 10 sec.4. Check the operating levels of:* coolant* oil* hydraulic oil* transmission oil* Fuel5. Control electric system of EngineCheck charge state of engine’s starter battery.NOTE: Charge starter battery according battery manufacturers instructions. See therefor for Operation Manualof starter battery. Starter battery is not in scope of delivery from STEYR MOTORS!6.
