Storage
Have an authorized Volvo Penta workshop carry out checks on the engine and other equipment before the boat
is put into winter storage. Make sure all necessary repairs and service are completed so that the boat is in top
condition before the next season.
Conservation is performed to ensure that the engine and drive train are not damaged by non-use during winter
storage. It is important that conservation is carried out in the correct manner, and that nothing is forgotten. For
this reason, we have compiled a check list of the most important points.
CAUTION!
Read the
chapter on Maintenance before starting work. It contains instructions on how to carry out maintenance
and service operations in a safe and correct manner.
The engine and other equipment must be inhibited to
prevent damage if they are not to be used for two
months or more. It is important that this is done in the
correct manner, and that nothing is forgotten. For this
reason, we have compiled a check list of the most
important points.
Conservation
It is best to carry out the following while the boat
is still in the water:
•
Change engine oil and oil filters.
•
Replace oil in the reverse gear.
•
Change the fuel filter. Replace the fuel pre-filter if
such is fitted.
•
Run the engine until it reaches normal operating
temperature.
