Maintenance
General
The jet unit requires regular servicing as detailed in the following sections.
Vessel usage is assumed to be 1000 operational hours per year.
The frequency of the following service items may be varied to suit actual operating conditions.
The overhaul section of this manual provides removal and refitting instructions for the various jet unit
components.
Inspection Covers
Extreme care is required whenever inspection covers are removed, as water may enter the
vessel through these openings.
Inspection cover nuts should not be fully removed until the inspection cover has been
loosened, so that if the water level is higher than expected, the inspection cover can be re-
secured.
Never leave inspection covers removed without continuous monitoring of the water levels.
Before removing an inspection cover:
Stop all engines.
Check that the static water level will be below the inspection cover lip.
If the static water level is too high, ballast should be placed on the bow to raise the stern
high enough to allow the inspection cover to be removed.
Alternatively, an optional hatch extension/overflow preventer can be fitted to the
inspection hatch opening to allow inspection of the intake at higher water levels.
