the voltage drain on the battery may result in diculties re-
starting the boat. To avoid this situation, when the voltage

to allow the operator time to turn the ignition key ON and
start the engine. Doing so will allow the engine’s alternator
to recharge the battery.
Charge dead batteries with a battery charger be-

modelsoeranoptionalbatterycharger;but never jump-
start the battery.) Jump-starting from another boat or
battery is dangerous! Charging a dead battery from an
engine will put undue stress on the alternator, which may
cause it to fail.
When charging,
batteries generate small amounts of
dangerous hydrogen gas. This gas is
highly explosive. Keep all sparks, flames
and smoking well away from the area.
Failure to follow instructions when charging a battery may cause
an electrical charge or even an explosion of the battery, which could
cause death or serious injury.
Crossing cables or jumper cables may
result in damage to the electrical com-
ponents due to incorrect battery connec-
tions. Such damages may not be covered
by your warranty.
Repeat Check for Fuel and/or Exhaust Leaks
This function should be performed after about three (3)-to-five (5) minutes of running the
engine to determine whether any leaks are apparent.
Afterthree(3)-to-ve(5)minutesofoperation,shutdowntheengineandensurethat
the engine safety starting switch is disconnected. Be certain that the throttle/shif
control lever is in neutral. Again, inspect the fuel system as well as possible. Inspect
the fuel pump gasket, fastener gaskets, regulator seal and sender gasket for leaks. If
the odor of gasoline is strong or if you see visual evidence of fuel
outside the system, cease all operations and take the boat imme-
diately to an authorized MasterCraft dealer’s service department
to determine the source of the leak. The leak must be repaired
beforetheengineisrestarted.Becausethelinesonlatemodel
MasterCraft boats are pressurized, they can be disconnected and/
orremovedONLYbyusingspecializedtoolsthatarenotavailable

Note that fuel systems vary by model. The pump-in-tank location
on top of the fuel tank will resemble one of the two adjacent photos.
This is important! Fuel leakage can lead to a build-up of potential-
ly explosive fumes within the engine compartment. DO NOT IGNORE
OR OVERLOOK THIS INSPECTION AND REPAIR AS NECESSARY!
Also, re-check that there is no unusual exhaust odors as de-
scribed prior to starting the engine.
