NOTE
- Ensure that the cooling circuit water intake seacock is open, and that water is coming
out of the engine exhaust.
- Boats fitted with rotating seal stern gland: bleed the air from the gland after each
launch.
- Do not obstruct ventilation openings (vent, engine ventilation grille).
- Avoid all contact between flammable materials and hot parts of the engine.
Regularly check the condition of the anodes and ensure that they are suitable for the boat's
environment (fresh water, salt water).
Any engine change must respect the capacities of the boat and be performed by an engineer
specializing in marine mechanics.

DANGER!
-
In order to avoid all risk of serious injury from the propeller, the engine must not be
started when there are people swimming near the boat.
- Whenever possible, the engine must be stopped for any engine maintenance or
checking operations. If this is impossible, then particular care must be taken with
moving parts (belts, shafts, etc.) to avoid any danger of injury.
- Do not use sail and engine if the heel angle is more than 10°
