11/ Exterior Equipment
11.1 Swim Platform
(optional)
If your EdgeWater 185DC is equipped with the optional swim platform, there are several important things
to remember for safe use and operation of this useful option.
•
Always shut down the engine if persons will be using the platform. Do not just settle for the engine
being in neutral.
•
Make sure the folding ladder portion has been properly stowed before getting underway.
12/Seasonal Maintenance
12.1 Engine
Refer to your engine manual for any specific information pertaining to your engine. For the fuel system,
add a fuel stabilizer to a full fuel tank as per the stabilizer’s instructions. Run the engine for a
minimum of 10 minutes to allow the fuel stabilizer to reach the engine.
•
Wax the engine exterior.
•
Remove the engine cowl and spray the engine’s powerhead with a non-conductive lubricant spray. Do
not spray directly on joints that are lubricated with grease as some lubricant sprays may dissolve
grease.
•
Grease all external zert fittings on the engine and steering system. Use a grease that is consistent with
engine manufacturer’s recommendations.
•
Change the engine lower unit lubricant. This will remove contaminants that may have built up
throughout the boating season. This is also a good time to check for lower unit seal problems. If there
is a leak, have it repaired by your dealer.
•
Remove the propeller and grease the propeller shaft. Inspect the shaft and propeller for unusual wear
or signs of deterioration.
12.2 Hull
•
Wax the entire boat. The hull will maintain its factory delivered luster much longer if waxed at least
once a season. The inside of the boat, which is subject to the sun’s direct rays, will also respond well to
a good coat of marine wax.
DO NOT wax the non-skid surfaces.
•
Remove the hull plug so the sump area can breathe.
