Introduction
Servicing of marine engines and generator sets presents unique problems. In many cases boats cannot be moved to a repair facility. Marine engines cannot be compared to the servicing of automobiles, trucks or even farm equipment. Failures often occur in remote areas far from competent assistance. Marine engines are taxed far more severely than auto or truck engines; therefore, maintenance schedules must be adhered to more strictly.
Failures begin with minor problems that are overlooked and become amplified when not corrected during routine maintenance.
As operator, it is your obligation to learn about your equipment and its proper maintenance. This is not a comprehensive technical service manual. Nor will it make the reader into an expert mechanic. Its aim is to aid you in maintaining your unit properly.

Warranty
A warranty registration certificate is supplied with your set. The extent of coverage is described in the Limited Warranty Statement. We recommend that you study the statement carefully.
NOTE: If the warranty is to apply, the servicing instructions outlined in this manual must be
followed. If further information is needed, please contact an authorized dealer or the factory.
Safety Rules
CAUTION: Accident reports show that careless use of engines causes a high percentage of accidents.
You can avoid accidents by observing these safety rules. Study these rules carefully and enforce them on the job.
•Never leave engine without proper security.
•Turn the coolant tank cap slowly to relieve pressure before removing. Add coolant only when the engine is stopped and cool.
•Mount a fire extinguisher near engine.
•Always disconnect the battery ground strap before making adjustments.
•Operate engines in properly ventilated areas.
•Keep trash and other objects away from engine.
•Escaping fluids under pressure can penetrate your skin. Use a piece of cardboard or wood, not your hands, to search for leaks.
•Avoid wearing loose clothing when working around engines.
•Do not oil or grease engine while it is running.
•Always disconnect the ECU (Electronic Control Unit) connectors and remove the ground connection for the engine control system-to- machine frame before welding on engine. Make sure no other electronic components are in the ground path also.
•Use caution in handling fuel. Never refuel a hot or running engine. Do not smoke while filling fuel tank or servicing fuel system.
•Keep your hands, feet, hair and clothing away from power-driven parts.
•Check for any loose electrical connections or faulty wiring.
•Engines should be operated only by knowledgeable, qualified personnel.
•Look completely around engine to make sure that everything is clear before starting.
•Do not operate an engine that isn't in proper working order. If an unsafe operating condition is noted, tag the set and control panel so others will also know about the problem.
•Provide first aid kits.

Northern Lights Control Panel
1. shutdown bypass switch
This switch bypasses the safety shutdown feature during the starting process.
2. engine control switch
To start the engine, hold this switch in the START position until the engine is running.
NOTE: Excessive cranking of marine sets equipped with water lift muffler systems can cause engine damage.
After the engine starts, release the switch and it will return to RUN position. To stop the engine, hold the switch in the STOP position.
3. oil pressure gauge
The oil pressure gauge shows the oil pressure in the engine lubricating system. If the pressure drops
Figure 5: Series 3B Generator Control Panel below 15 PSI at a speed higher than idling, stop the engine and investigate.
4. coolant temperature gauge
Water temperature gauge shows the temperature of the cooling water. If the gauge registers over 200° or drops below 140°, stop the engine and investigate.
5. hour meter
Keeps track of the engine running time.
6. dc voltmeter
When the engine is running, it indicates the voltage output of the alternator.
