Fuel System Main Tank


Just purchased a 1989 48 foot Californian\Carver Aft Cabin Motor yacht. Vessel is equipped with two 85 gallon saddle tanks in the engine room and one 350 gallon tank under the main bedroom bed. The previous owner only used the two 85 gallon saddle tanks. The attached photo shows, i assume, the valving required to feed from the main tank. What is the proper valve positions required to feed from the main tank? Are there any other valves in the engine room required to be set to feed from the main tank? Also how does this work? Does the main tank fill the the two saddle tanks so that the engines only obtain fuel directly from the saddle tanks?
