from entering the engine.

Battery. Check for tight battery connections. Consult

the battery manufacturer's instructions regarding

battery care and maintenance.

Coolant Level. Check the coolant level according to

the cooling system maintenance information.

Exhaust System.

Check for exhaust leaks and

blockages. Check the silencer and piping condition and

check for tight exhaust system connections.

Inspect the exhaust system components (exhaust

manifold, mixing elbow, exhaust line, hose clamps,

silencer, and outlet flapper) for cracks, leaks, and

corrosion.

Check the hoses for softness, cracks, leaks, or dents.

Replace the hoses as needed.

Check for corroded or broken metal parts and replace

them as needed.

Check for loose, corroded, or missing clamps.

Tighten or replace the hose clamps and/or hangers

as needed.

water, (4) reconnect the hose to the water filter outlet,

and (5) open the seacock. Confirm seawater pump

operation on startup as indicated by water discharge

from the exhaust outlet.

Kohler Co. recommends that all boat owners have their

vessels—especially the exhaust system attached to the

generator set—inspected at the start of each boating

season by the local Coast Guard Auxiliary. If there is no

Coast Guard Auxiliary in the area, contact an authorized

Kohler distributor/dealer for the inspection.
