MAINTENANCE
PAGE 26
PLUMBING SYSTEMS
All pumps should be checked frequently
to insure proper operation. This is an
especially important regular mainte-
nance item since proper functioning of a
pump could save your vessel from seri-
ous damage in the future.
Inspect all hoses for chafing and dete-
rioration. See that hose clamps are tight.
Check that the pump impeller area is
clean and free of obstructions.
Inspect electrical wiring for corrosion.
Make sure float switches move freely
and are making an electrical connection.
The owner should become familiar with
the layout of the water and waste sys-
tems by walking through the boat with
the diagrams provided in this manual. It
is especially important that the owner
knows all the thru-hull valve locations
and inspects for leaks frequently. Refer
to plumbing diagrams in Specifications
and Technical section of this manual.
General Thru-hull Lists (varies from boat
to boat---see diagrams in Systems and
Circuits section).
1) Engine cooling system
2) Galley sink
3) Head sink
4) Head toilet (water intake)
5) Holding tank discharge
6) Scupper drains
FUEL SYSTEMS
The owner should inspect the condition
of fuel lines for cracks or leaks. A pri-
mary source of fuel-related problems is
water in the system. The owner should
use only well maintained fueling facilities
and make sure fuel fill caps are tightly
secured after filling. Check and maintain
fuel filters periodically. Refer to your En-
gine Manual for additional information.
Periodically, add biocide to prevent bac-
teria and fungi from contaminating die-
sel fuel that may contain some water.
Carefully follow manufacturer
’
s instruc-
tions and clean filter regularly.
