YOUR BOAT
Transmission Cooler
TRANSMISSION COOLER:
Periodically
check
the
transmission oil cooler opening.
Loose the clamp and twist the
hose to remove
it.
Inspect the
honeycomb-like filter for debris.
Remove the debris, using a pair
of needle nose pliers before
re-
installing the hose.
PROLONGED STORAGE: Should you need to store your boat for
an
extended period,
we
suggest you introduce a
fuel
stabilizer such
as
STA-BIL to prevent the formation of
gum and varnish.
Add the recommended amount to the fuel and run the engine for a minimum of ten
minutes, allowing the mixture to enter the carburetor. Subsequent starts the following
season should be trouble free.
Refer
to the orange pamphlet
in
the back of this manual,
or
call
toll-free, 1-800-FOR
EAGLE,
for more information.
VENTILATION SYSTEM: Both bow and stern are equipped with functional vents.
These provide air flow through the engine compartment/bilge and the gas tank
compartment. One hose runs from under the bow to the subfloor and terminates at the
front of the engine compartment. Other hoses connect the vent on the aft deck to the
bilge area and the blower.
This ventilation system
is
designed to aid
in
evacuating fuel vapors caused by engine
flooding, re-fueling
or
other means.
IMPORTANT: Fuel vapors are
an
extreme hazard and cannot be adequately
removed
via
a ventilation system. Vapors from liquid fuel can result from leakage,
spillage or other means. If you see exposed liquid fuel
in
your boat, do not operate your
boat until the exposed fuel
is
removed, the source located and the problem corrected.
Consult your dealer
or
a reputable marine mechanic.
Run
your blower for four minutes prior to starting your engine - particularly
after refueling. Always Inspect for exposed
liqUid
fuel. Gasoline vapors can
cause
an
explosion.
