WINTERISING AND LAYING UP
{
a) The engine lubricating oil and lubricating oil filter
should be changed at the end of the season rather
than in the spring. Please refer to ‘Section 2’.
b) The closed circuit cooling system must contain an
anti-freeze coolant solution. The coolant solution is a
mixture of fresh water and anti-freeze (Mono Ethylene
Glycol based conforming to BS6580:1992) with the
anti-freeze being a 50% solution (this also applies to
warm and tropical climates). The warranty is invalid if
the correct percentage/ratio is not used.
c) For cold climates where the air or water temperatures
can fall below 3°C, the sea water circuit must be
protected in addition to the fresh water system. This is
best achieved as follows:
• Close the inlet seacock to the engine (engine stopped).
• Disconnect the sea water inlet pipe and dip it into a
small bucket containing 50:50 anti-freeze solution.
• Start the engine (out of gear) and run for 5 to 10
seconds until the anti-freeze is used up and can be
seen coming out of the exhaust outlet.
• Shut engine off and reconnect the inlet pipe to the
seacock. The sea water or raw water circuit is now
protected by anti-freeze.
d) Ensure instrument panel is well protected and give
the key switch a spray of WD40/Petroleum Jelly or
equivalent.
e) With the engine stopped, disconnect the battery
(always disconnect the negative cable first and
re-connect the negative cable last) and take it ashore
for trickle charging and top up as necessary. If AC
power is available then this can be done on the boat.
f) Fuel tanks should be kept full during the lay up
period to eliminate water condensation in the tank.
Water entering the fuel injection system can cause
considerable damage.
LAYING UP ASHORE
{
a) Change the engine oil before the vessel is taken out
of the water as warm engine oil is much easier to
remove than cold.
b) Cooling system - As above in ‘Winterising and Laying
up’ paragraphs (b) to (f) should be followed.
c) If the engine is to be laid up for more than 6 months
then remove the sea water pump impeller - heat
exchanger cooled only.
d) If the engine will not be used or run for periods longer
than 6 months we recommend that the engine is
‘inhibited’ - this involves running the engine for about
5 minutes to:
• Replace all the diesel fuel in the fuel system and
injection pump by running the engine with ‘calibration
fluid’ (fuel pump test oil ISO 4113).
• Allow ‘Ensis’ to circulate around the lubricating oil
system by draining out the standard lubricating oil and
replacing it with a rust preventative oil such as ‘Ensis’
or similar.
