ENGINE
Whether maintenance of the power system is to be performed by the owner
or delegated to a mechanic, it is the owner who must first initiate any action
that is to take place.
He must either perform the maintenance or decide to
call someone to do the job.
A working knowledge of the power system is
essential in the first case, and preventive maintenance desirable in the
second.
The engine manual is, of course, the prime source for engine
information and should be consulted, preferably before the fact.
The
following paragraphs are included as a supplement to cover any required
maintenance procedures that are not a part of the engine manual.
We have already stressed the points that are of importance for an engine to
keep working properly.
It might be added that the engine compartment
should be kept scrupulously clean; check for any unusual oil or fuel leaks.
Inspect all the electrical connections frequently.
Drain the bowl of the fuel/water separator at regular intervals to lessen the
chance of water damage to your engine’s fuel system.
Keep fuel tanks
filled.
Inspect the engine mounts and coupling for loose bolts regularly.
Check the alternator belt for the correct tension, keep a spare belt on hand.
Check all hoses and fuel lines for leaks regularly.
NOTE
: Always have a spare set of sacrificial anodes on board, and regularly
check those that are already fitted for deterioration; they should be replaced
when their size has been reduced by half. The time this takes will vary with
the waters in which the boat is used.
Water temperature, salinity, the
presence of neighboring boats, the nature of the bottom and the materials in
the dock will all affect the life of your boat's anodes.
Order your spare anodes thru your dealer or from Beneteau Customer
Service.
