Before Each Use
(Prior to Starting the Engine)
Review the Safety Checks and Services
section of this Owner’s Manual. There are
important functions that must be followed
before,duringandaftereveryouting,with-
out fail! The Safety Checks and Services
notes that all drain plugs must be reinstalled
prior to operating the boat!
Inspect Seacock Strainer
Because a clogged seacock strainer puts
undue strain on the engine(s), the strainer
should be checked prior to starting the
boat. Boats with closed cooling systems
are not equipped with this. The seacock
strainer is standard on all boats.

Step 2: Remove the lter and inspect for
debris.Manuallycleanthestrainer.
Step 3: Return the lter in place and re-
cover. Tighten the nut, but do not
over-tighten as it may eventually
strip the threads holding the nut in
place.
Inspect the Battery Connections
and Hold-Downs
Because poor connections or hold-downs
may result in erroneous voltmeter readings,
MasterCraft recommends doing this before
starting the boat.
