LAUNCHING RECOMMENDATIONS
A lot of skill and care is required to commission your JEANNEAU boat. The proper working of all
your boat equipments in the future results from the quality of the commissioning operations.
The initial launching and the first tests of the different equipments shall be carried out by your
JEANNEAU dealer or agent so you can expect to enjoy the warranty in case of some equipment failure.
If later you have to launch your boat yourself, you should take the following precautions:
BEFORE LAUNCHING
- If your boat is to be fitted with sounder and speedometer, allow for the relevant fittings and their
installation.
- Check the water intake strain box for cleanliness.
- Check the engine and reduction gear oil levels (refer to engine manual).
- Turn off the engine cooling water drain valves.
- All the optional accessories shall be sealed with paste.
- Retract the speedometer into its housing (it may be damaged by the handling belts).
- For the on-line engines, check the anode at the end of the shaft is in place. Check the nut tightening
(the lock washer shall be turned over onto the nut). The anode shall not be painted.
- Turn off all the water inlet and drain valves (sink, washbasin, heads, engine).
