1 - Under the heat exchanger 2 - The bank 1 manifold. 3 - The
V-drive 4 - The bank 2 manifold.
The circulating hose on the starboard side and aft of the
engine under the heat exchanger may or may not have a plug. If
equipped with a plug simply remove it. If not, you must do the
following: Loosen the clamps holding the hose in place and allow
it to drop down to drain any residual water in the system. This
is the lowest area of the circulating water system, and gravity
should allow any water to drain that was not previously drained.
NOTE: When reconnecting this hose as the boat is
recommissioned prior to operation, be sure to tighten the
clamps holding this hose but
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN
. The
clamps should be tight enough to prevent leaking, but over
tightening them will accelerate wear and tear on the hose and
could eventually cause failure that is not covered under warranty.
If the batteries are removed for storage, they should be fully
charged prior to removal. Batteries should be stored in cool
(but not cold), dry locations. Never store batteries near heat
devices or anything that causes a spark or electrical charge. Fully
recharge the battery prior to reinstallation.
NOTE: If the battery is removed from the boat, the
automatic bilge system will not operate, and water will not be
discharged from the bilge. Therefore, boats that are stored
in water must not have the batteries removed.
Additional steps to complete for storage:
• Thoroughly wash and clean the boat, inside and out, as
instructed in the
Ongoing Care
section of this manual.
• Leave the bow slightly elevated so that any further
draining of water from the bilge system will run out and
not accumulate inside the bilge system.
• Remove the drain plug(s) and place them in see-through
plastic sacks or containers. Place them inside the boat so
that they will be immediately locatable for recommission.
• Using low-tack tape, tape around the exhaust flap so that
vermin cannot chew their way into and nest inside the
exhaust system.
• Apply wax to the entire exterior surface to protect the
hull and deck finishes, particularly from dampness and
condensation that may occur.
• Disconnect the heater hoses (where equipped) and blow
out all water using compressed air.
• Remove the propeller and store in a safe place.
• Remove the seat cushions and store in a cool, dry
location. Open all storage compartments and areas to
allow air circulation. Without it, mold and mildew may
invade the compartments.
• Prop the engine compartment lid open several inches to
allow for air circulation.
• If the boat will be outdoors, use an optional Malibu canvas
cover that has been sewn to fit the boat deck snugly and
not allow intrusions of rain and/or snow.
• Chock the trailer wheels if the boat is stored on a trailer.
When recommissioning the boat for the following
boating season, reverse the above steps, plus add the
following:
• Check all fluids, oil, and coolant. Add, replace, or change
as necessary.
• Check the engine for cracks and leaks that may have been
caused by freezing temperatures and/or water.
• Check all hose clamps to be certain they are secure and
that the rubber hoses have not deteriorated over the
period.
• Reinstall the propeller if it was removed. Grease the shaft
taper prior to reinstalling the propeller.
• Have the alignment between the output flange on the
transmission and the propeller shaft flange checked. An
authorized Malibu dealer has the measurement detail for
correct alignment.
• Prior to starting the engine in the water, key it on and off
two or three times, allowing several seconds between
key-on cycles, prior to cranking the engine to fully start.
The purpose of this is to prime the fuel system. If the
engine appears reluctant to start, allow a couple minutes
of cool down for each attempt to crank and start the
engine. Watch the gauges/video screen for readings
and listen for abnormal sounds. Keep speeds low until
the engine temperature rises to the normal operating
temperature.
NOTICE
All drain plugs in the boat, regardless of the engine manufacturer,
must be removed and all water drained prior to storage, particularly
during winter months, to avoid potential freezing and damage to the
engine and the boat. Such damage is not covered under warranty.
NOTICE
Failure to properly perform annual maintenance, plus storage/
winterization procedures as described in this manual is likely to result
in damage to the boat, components, drive train, and features. Such
damage is not covered under warranty.
