2. Regularly inspect a newly installed system to check that all is well. Do not limit this to

monitoring the electrical output, but also check for smooth mechanical operation. Any
defects need to be remedied immediately.

3. Finally, in water mode, connect a safety line (well clear of the propeller) to save the

generator should it become detached from its mounting.
