OPERATORS MANUAL
Many of the preceding safety tips and warnings are repeated
in your Operators Manual along with other cautions and
notes to highlight critical information. Read your manual
carefully, maintain your equipment, and follow all safety
procedures.
ENGINE INSTAllAnONS
Preparations to install an engine should begin with a thor-
ough examination of the American Boat and Yacht Council's
(ABYC) standards. These standards are a combination of
sources including the USCG and the NFPA.
Sections of the ABYC standards of particular interest are:
H-2 Ventilation
P-l Exhaust systems
P-4 Inboard engines
E-9 DC Electrical systems
All installations must comply with the Federal Code of
Regulations (FCR).
iii
INSTALLATION
When installing UNIVERSAL engines and generators it is important that strict atten-
tion be paid to the following information:
SIPHON-BREAK
For installations where the exhaust manifold/water injected exhaust elbow is close to
or will be below the vessel's waterline, provisions must be made to install a siphon-
break in the raw water supply hose to the exhaust elbow. TIris hose must be looped a
minimum of 20" above the vessel's waterline. Failure to use a siphon-break when
the exhaust manifold injection port is at or below the load waterline will result in
raw water damage to the engine and possible flooding of the boat.
If you have any doubt about the position of the water-injected exhaust elbow relative
to the vessel's waterline under the vessel's various operating conditions, instaU a
siphon-break.
NOTE: A siphon-break requires periodic inspection and cleaning to ensure proper
operation. Failure to properly maintain a siphon-break can result in catastrophic
engine damage. Consult the siphon-break manufacturer for proper maintenance.
EXHAUST SYSTEM
The exhaust hose must be certified for marine use. The system must be designed to
prevent water from entering the exhaust under any sea conditions and at any angle
of the vessels hull.

Installing the Connecting Rod Bearing Caps
Since the connecting rod cap bolts and nuts are torqued
using the plastic area tightening method, the bolts should be
examined before reuse. If the bolt threads are "necked
down", the bolt should be replaced.
Necking can be checked by running a nut with fingers to the
full length of the bolt threads. If the nut does not run
smoothly, the bolt should be replaced.
Before installation of each nut, apply clean engine oil to the
thread portion and bearing surface of the nut
Install each nut to the bolt and tighten it with your fingers.

The following field tests should be performed by a qualified technician.
Proper safety precautions must be followed as most of these tests are

Description
Two sets of windings are found in the rotor assembly. An AC
voltage is produced in two groups of windings as the rotor
turns at rated rpm. The AC voltage passes through each of
the two diodes mounted on the isolated fixture just before the
rotor carrier bearing. The AC sine wave is changed to a DC
and this DC voltage is passed through the two groups of TESTING THE DIODES
rotating field windings producing a DC field around these
windings. This field affects the AC winding of the two main
stator groups inducing an AC voltage in these windings that A low resistance should be found with the leads in one

AC voltage can be measured across the capacitor(s) while the

500 volts AC. 1bis voltage buildup is ~ccomplished as the
exciter windings charge the capacitor(s) and the capacitor(s) MEASURING

connection plugged into the capacitor(s) while the generator RUNNING
is operating at its rated Hertz (60.5 - 61.5 for gasoline.models
and 61.5 - 62.0 for diesel models). This flow of saturating
AC in the exciter windings produces a phase-imbalance type
of field that effects the auxiliary windings: a beneficial result
that produces good motor starting characteristics for this type
of generator.

To measure the resistance of the exciter winding locate the

Unplug any other connections from the capacitor noting
their position on the capacitor. Place one probe of the mul-
