MAINTENANCE
Before each trip, carefully inspect the mast from top to bottom.
Periodically check the rigging tightening and the lock nut or pin locking (you should check it for the
first time after a few days sailing in all types of weather).
Secure and lubricate the bottle screws with tallow, graphite grease or other.
Never lubricate the bottle screws with silicone.
Check the bottle screw tightening.
Inspect the bottle screws for possible wear (due to the chainplate friction if the rigging is slack).
Change any shroud or stay with severed wires or kinks.
Regularly check the chainplates and inside tie rods for condition.
ADVICE: Your JEANNEAU dealer can carry out all the maintenance operations.
DANGER
To hoist a crew member up to the top of the mast, make a bowline with the halyard directly on the
bosun's chair ring
(never use the halyard snap shackle or shackle).
Do not hoist a crew member when sailing in heavy weather.
