Before changing the oil, consult the engine Owner's Manual for complete instructions.
Routinely check fuel lines for tightness and integrity. Probably your nose is your best guide here. If you
smell fuel, there may be a leak somewhere in the system. A gentle tightening of each connection in the
fuel line will often solve the problem. If you smell fumes aboard, extreme caution must be taken to
prevent an explosion. Consult a qualified service mechanic immediately.
12.11 Power Train
Details of care and maintenance of the engine and Saildrive are given in Section 6.
12.12 Electrical
The electrical wiring should require little or no maintenance. Exposed terminals and connections should
be checked several times each season and more frequently in saltwater environment. Check for tightness
of the connections and the presence of any corrosion. Connections may be protected with a light
application of spray coating obtainable from an electronics parts supplier.
"
Clean, Dry, Tight" are the three most important factors in battery and electrical maintenance.
12.13 Upholstery
12.13.1 CLOTH
The cushions and seat backs on your Tartan Yacht are covered with relatively stain-resistant fabric,
which should only be dry cleaned. However, consult your local dry cleaner before attempting this
process. It is important that the upholstery be kept aired and that it be dried after use to prevent mold
development. If the yacht is to be left unused for prolonged periods, it is advisable to stand the cushions
on end so that air can circulate around them. It is also advisable at such times to clean out all lockers,
removing all dampness and leaving locker doors open.
12.13.2 ULTRASUEDE and ULTRALEATHER
Please consult your care and maintenance card provided by Ultra Fabrics regarding the cleaning of your
ultraleather or ultraseude fabrics.
12.14 Steering
The manufacturer's instructions for maintaining your pedestal steering system should be followed closely.
The complete system, including bolts should be inspected thoroughly each season.
In addition to the above, an inspection should be carried out every other year with the system under heavy
load. While under load, look for parts bending, distorting or creaking. Watch for any indication of failing
in the system when under full load for a period of time, and report any abnormalities to your Tartan
dealer.
