CAUTION! After air conditioner has started,
check to be sure that water is flowing
overboard from the air conditioner discharge.
If there is no discharge, stop and check for
leaks or obstructions.
CAUTION! The sea strainers for the generator
and/or air conditioning must be checked
regularly for obstructions. If the strainer gets
clogged, it can prevent adequate water flow to
the units causing severe damage. The
strainers are equipped with a clear top for
easy visual inspection. In order to clean the
filter basket, first make sure the seacock is in
the CLOSED/OFF position. Verify the genset
and or AC systems are turned off. Remove the
knob located on the top of the strainer basket.
Gently apply upward pressure on the clear lid.
Do not use any tool to force or pry the lid up.
This may result in damage to the strainer.
Remove the clear lid and rubber seal. Remove
the strainer basket assembly, remove all
debris, and rinse clean. Reinstall the strainer
basket. Apply a small amount of lubricant to
the rubber seal. Reinstall the lid and tighten
the knob snugly. Do not overtighten! Open the
seacock and activate the unit to check for
leaks.
