Abstract

A fresh water generator includes a primary pump for pumping up water to be treated, a secondary pump for pressure sending, and a filtering device for purifying the water to be treated which is sent from the secondary pump by pressure. The fresh water generator further includes interlocking devices for interlocking clutch means of transmission devices and an operation lever of a three-way valve. The operation lever can be switched to one position from the other position and vice versa. The one position is a position in which the clutch means are actuated, thereby transmitting drive power from an internal combustion engine to the primary pump. The other position is a position in which the clutch means are relaxed, thereby blocking transmission of the drive power to the primary pump.
