Safety Precautions
Keep the engine, gearbox and surrounding area clean, including the area
immediately below the engine.
Exhaust
Exhaust Outlet
Diesel marine propulsion engines emit exhaust gases at very high
temperatures – around 400 - 500°C. Engines are supplied with either wet
exhaust outlet (water injection bend) or dry outlet (dry exhaust stub) – see
engine price list. At the outlet next to the heat exchange header tank, the
exhaust outlet can become very hot and if touched, can injure. This must be
lagged or avoided by ensuring adequate guarding. It is the responsibility of
the installer to lag the exhaust system if a dry system is used. Exhaust gases
are harmful if ingested, the installer must therefore ensure that exhaust lines
are lead overboard and that leakage in the vessel does not occur.
Fuel
Fuel Lines
Diesel engines are equipped with high pressure fuel injection pumps, if
leakage should occur, or if pipes fracture, fuel at high pressure can harm
personnel. Skin must be thoroughly cleaned in the event of contact with
diesel fuel.
Oil
The Canaline marine propulsion package is supplied with 2 dipsticks, one for
the engine and one for the gearbox. Ensure dipsticks are returned and secure
after checking, if not oil leaks can cause infection when touched. Do not
6
remove dipsticks whilst engine is running, as this can cause oil to blow out. All
oil must be removed from the skin to prevent infection.
Scalding
An engine running under load will have a closed circuit fresh water
temperature of 85° to 95°C. The pressure cap on the top of the header tank
must not be removed when the engine is running. It can only be removed
when the engine is stopped and has cooled down.
Transportation/Lifting
Engines are supplied on transportable pallets. Lifting eyes on engines are
used for lifting engine and gearbox assembly only, not the pallet and
associated kit.
GENERAL DECLARATION
This machinery is not intended to be put into service until it has been
incorporated into or with other machinery. It is the responsibility of the
purchaser/installer/owner, to ensure that the machinery is properly guarded and
that all necessary health and safety requirements, in accordance with the laws of
the relevant country, are met before it is put into service.

Starting and Stopping
Important checks prior to use
Your engine has been filled with new oil for both engine and gearbox when it
leaves the factory. However, please check, see section on engine maintenance.
Ensure the engine is free to turn without obstructions, and daily checks have
been carried out.
Ensure battery is fully charged and connected (the isolator is in the ‘ON’ position).
Ensure Morse speed and gearbox cables are fitted correctly and that cable travel
lengths are correct.
Ensure engine is out of gear with 1/3 throttle – see single lever control instruction
manual
Engine starting
On turning the key to position “1” on your panel, the panel will go through a
procedure, to ensure all lights and the buzzer are working, once this has been
completed you can then start the engine.
9
Continuous engagement of the starter to the flywheel ring gear without giving
them a break will result in the damaged starter pinion gear and flywheel ring
gear. Crank for no longer than 20 seconds, with a 20 second break between
attempts.
The oil pressure gauge on the deluxe engine control panel will read high on start
up and whilst the engine is cold. This is normal it will then decrease.
STOPPING
Every propulsion engine is fitted with a stop solenoid. To stop engine simply turn
the key to the “0” position and the engine will stop.
When leaving the boat for an extended period, turn off battery isolator
Canaline Engine control panels feature LED Module to indicate as listed below. An

Checks during operation
While operating the engine, keep checking whether all parts of the engine are
operating smoothly and properly.
COOLING SYSTEM
If steam or coolant is escaping from the overflow tube; stop the engine, allow it
to cool, and check the following and correct as needed.
IMPORTANT
To avoid personal injury :
DO NOT remove the manicooler cap while the engine is hot.
Pressurized steam or coolant will escape and cause serious injury to
you and any bystanders.
Open the cap at least 10 minutes after the engine is stopped.
FUEL
The fuel tank should never be allowed to become completely empty. An empty
tank will allow air into the fuel system; and the engine will not operate without
bleeding the fuel system.
EXHAUST SMOKE
The engine exhaust should be colorless during normal operation within the rated
output of the engine. Continuous dark emissions or smoke may indicate improper
usage or an engine malfunction.

Fuel and Oil Specifications
Fuel
Important
• It as advisable to fit a fuel/water separator in the fuel supply system. Water in
the fuel can damage the injection system. However if the engine is being fitted
into an existing boat (re-installation), it is compulsory to fit a fuel/water
separator
• If a fuel supply shutoff valve is fitted do not use taper tap, only use a ball
valve tap. The valve type are more reliable and less likely to let air into the
fuel system.
• Do not use kerosene, which is very low in cetane rating, and adversely affects
the engine.
• Be careful not to let the fuel tank become empty, or air can enter the fuel
system, necessitating bleeding before next engine start.
Fuel selection
The following criteria is required for the diesel fuel
1. Must be free from minute dust particles
2. Must have adequate viscosity
3. Must have high cetane value
4. Must have high fluidity at low temperature
5. Must have low sulphur content
6. Must have little residual carbon
Diesel fuels
If fuel other than the specified one is used, engine function will be lowered.
Fuel Requirements
NOTICE: The fuel injection pump, injector or other parts of the fuel system and
engine can be damaged if you use any fuel or fuel additive other than those
specifically recommended by Canaline / Isuzu.
Such damage is not Canaline / Isuzu’s responsibility and is not covered by the
warranty. To help avoid fuel system or engine damage, please read the
following:
• Some service stations mix used engine oil with diesel fuel. Some
manufacturers of large diesel engines allow this; however for your diesel
engine, do not use diesel fuel, which has been contaminated with engine oil.
12
• Do not use any fuel additive (other than as recommended under “Biocide” in
this section). At the time this manual was printed, no other fuel additive was
recommended. (See your authorisation dealer to find out if this has changed).
CAUTION: the water/diesel fuel mixture is flammable and could be hot. To help
avoid personal injury and/pr property damage to not touch the fuel coming from
the drain valve and do not expose the fuel to open flames or sparks. Be sure you
do not overfill the container. Heat (such as from the engine) can cause the fuel
to expand. If the container is too full, fuel could be forced out of the container.
This could lead to a fire and the risk of personal injury and/or vehicle or
equipment damage.
Biocides
In warm or humid weather, fungus and/or bacteria may form in diesel fuel if
there is water in the fuel.
NOTICE: fungus or bacteria can cause fuel systems damage by plugging the fuel
lines, fuel filters or injector. They can also cause fuel system corrosion.
If fungus or bacteria has caused problems, you should have your authorised
dealer correct these problems. Then, use a diesel fuel biocide to sterilise the fuel
system (follow the biocide manufacturers instructions). Biocides are available
from your dealer, service stations, parts stores and other automotive places. See
your authorised dealer for advice on using biocides in your area and for
recommendations on which biocides you should use.
Smoke suppressants
Because of extensive testing of treated fuel versus untreated fuel, the use of a
smoke suppressant additive is not recommended because of the greater
possibility of stuck rings and valve failure, resulting from extensive ash deposits.
Lubricant
The quality of engine oil may largely affect engine performance, startibility and
engine life.
Use of unsuitable oil may result in piston ring stick, piston and cylinder seizure
and accelerate the sliding surface wear causing increased oil consumption,
lowered output and finally engine failure. To avoid this, use the specified engine
oil.
13
Engine Oil Selection
Engines Plus recommend that an API CC grade oil is used in all of its marine
engines. Alternatively an API CD grade can be used if an API CC grade is
unavailable.
The correct grade oil is available from your local marine dealer.

Maintenance
Schedule
15
Checking engine oil level
For quantities of oil please refer to page 7. When checking the engine oil level,
do so before starting or more than five minutes after stopping.
1. To check the oil level, draw out the dipstick, wipe clean, re-insert it and
draw it out again. Check to see that the oil level lies between the two
major marks on the dipstick. (please ignore the middle smaller mark)
2. If the level is too low add new oil via the oil filler port, to the specified level
– do not overfill.
Engine Dipstick
Important
When using oil of different make or viscosity from the previous one, drain old oil.
Never mix two different types of oil. Engine oil and filter should be changed after
the first 50 hours running time and then every 200 hours or every year. Oil filter
is a cartridge type mounted on the side of the engine.
16
Changing Engine Oil
Sump drain
Pump Oil Filter
Sump drain
Pump - tap
Note: it is best to have a plastic bag wrapped around the filter to catch any oil left
in the system. (Always keep your bilges clean!) Before screwing in the new filter
spread a thin film of oil round the rubber gasket to ensure a good seal and screw
in – hand tight.
4. Fill the engine with new oil, refer to page 13 for specification, as described
above.
Note: once you have re-filled the engine will oil, run the engine for about 5
minutes, so the oil can be pumped around the engine and into the new filter. Stop
the engine, and let it settle for about 10 minutes, and re-check the oil level, fill if
required.
17
Changing the fuel filter
Fuel Filter
Note: Do not get fuel on the flexible mounts.
18
Freshwater system
New engines are supplied with the freshwater drained off. The following
instructions must be followed to fill the system.
(e) run the engine for 5 minutes on no load (out of gear) and check coolant
level. Top up if necessary.
(f) Check systems for leaks, including calorifier circuit if fitted.
Note: for keel cooled engines it is very important to bleed all the air out of the
system before the engine is run on load (check with builders instructions).
(g) If a calorifier is fitted care must be taken to see that this is also full of
coolant and all the air is expelled. (see calorifier fitting notes under
installation section)
(h) Run the engine on one third speed for 15 minutes, preferably with the boat
tied up. As the system warms up coolant may be expelled from the
overflow pipe into the bilge. Stop the engine and allow the engine to cool
down before removing the pressure cap and top up the coolant to 25mm
below the filler neck.
19
Important
Removal of the pressure cap when the engine is hot can cause severe injury from
scalding hot water under pressure. Always allow the engine to cool and then use
a large cloth when turning the cap anti-clockwise to the stop. This allows the
pressure to be released. Press firmly down on the cap and continue to turn
anticlockwise to release the cap.
(i) Repeat (h) if coolant level is more than 25mm below the base of the filler
neck when the engine has cooled down.
(j) Run engine on 2/3 speed for 20 minutes, check for leaks and repeat (i)
(k) Anti-freeze solutions should be drained off every 500 hours or 2 years
which ever is sooner, and replaced with a new solution.
20
Changing the Air filter
The Air filter should be changed every 400 hours, once per year or sooner if
necessary, the air cleaner fitted to the Canaline marine engines, has a
replaceable element, part no EP110541.

Coupling alignment procedures should be re-checked after 10/15 hours of
operation, during which time any “settling” of the system should have taken
place. If this is not possible, the power unit should be raised approximately
1mm on each mount after completing the alignment procedure.
5. If the distance between the underside of Nyloc Nut ‘A’ and the top of
Locknut ‘B’ exceeds 15mm, then a 5mm Packing Piece should be inserted
between the base of the mount and top face of the beds. Nyloc Nut ‘A’
should then be adjusted to compensate.
6. Following any height adjustment on the mountings, alignment of the
Coupling Flanges should be re-checked after tightening the Top Nut ‘C’ and
Mount to Bed Bolts securely.
27
Calorifier Connection Points
Calorifier connection points are as shown below. Connection stubs are provided
and are suitable to accept 15mm (5/8”) dia bore flexible hose. The hose must be
secured with suitable hose clips to give a watertight connection capable of
withstanding a water pressure of 15 psi. Hoses are not supplied by Engines Plus.
WATER RETURN
From Calorifier
If no calorifier is fitted, the connections must be blanked off, They MUST NOT BE
CONNECTED DIRECTLY TOGETHER, Blanking plugs are available on request.
28
Calorifier Position
The Canaline Marine range has been developed to operate with approximately 3m
of piping between the engine and Calorifier, with a minimum number of bends
and restrictions in this pipework. We recommend the Calorifier Inlet and Outlet
connections be no more than 300 to 450mm either above the top of the engine or
below the bottom of the engine sump.
Provided these criteria are applied and the system is fully bled of air, then
satisfactory performance should result.
Both Feed and Return connections are situated on the engine side of the
Thermostat and water is therefore allowed to circulate around the Calorifier
Circuit at all times. It should be noted that during long periods of engine
operation, when no hot water is drawn from the Calorifier, that the hot water
temperature within could approach 80 deg C. Under these circumstances,
extreme care should be taken when using the hot water circuit.
