The engine must be installed, maintained and operated within the parameters detailed in the
Operator’s Maintenance Manual. Maintenance must use approved materials, parts and
consumables. Should the engine lie unused for a period in excess of 6 months it must be
inhibited otherwise it will deteriorate with resulting decrease in performance. See also the
Winterising and Laying Up procedures in the Operator’s Maintenance Manual.
The fuel settings of the diesel injection system must not be tampered with otherwise the
guarantee will be invalid and the performance may fall outside prescribed limit. Such
adjustment cannot be allowed under the terms of the emission certification.
Performance of the engine depends upon the use of correct fuels, lubricants and inhibitors.
These are fully detailed in the Operator’s Maintenance Manual.
Particular attention must be paid to the installation with respect to the exhaust system. The
system must be designed so that water cannot back feed into the engine. The run must be
such that the back pressure at the engine manifold does not exceed the level detailed in the
Operator’s Maintenance Manual. Wet, water injected, exhaust systems must be at least the
bore mentioned in the Operator’s Maintenance Manual and should the run be excessive this
bore must be increased accordingly. Back pressure is measured at the outlet of the engine
manifold before the water injection bend or dry bellows.
Our experience over 14 years has shown that properly installed and maintained engines hold
their performance without major mishap even when running hours exceed those mentioned in
the Recreational Craft Directive. It is the owners / users responsibility to ensure that the engine
continues to function properly and any malfunction must be immediately investigated. The
Trouble Shooting section as detailed in the Operator’s Maintenance Manual is particularly
helpful in this respect. Engine performance, especially with respect to erratic running, exhaust
condition, low power output and high oil consumption are indications of engine conditions
that may result in emissions outside the prescribed limits and must therefore be investigated
and rectified immediately.
