6.6 Maintenance

• Periodically lubricate all hinges and latch

assemblies with a light oil.

• Periodically clean and coat gasket mate-

rials with silicone to help keep them pli-

able.

• The opening cabin deck hatches and

port windows are made of acrylic plastic.

Acrylic plastic scratches easily. Never

use a dry cloth or glass cleaning solu-

tions on acrylic plastic. Use a soft cloth

and mild soap and water for routine

cleaning. Solvents and products contain-

ing ammonia can permanently damage

acrylic plastic. Please refer to the Rou-

tine Maintenance chapter for more infor-

mation on the proper maintenance of

acrylic plastic.

• Periodically inspect and clean the gener-

ator compartment ventilation ducts to

ensure adequate air circulation. A build-

up of leaves, twigs or other debris can

severely reduce ventilation. It is impor-

tant to be sure that the bilge water level

does not accumulate to a level that could

restrict the ventilation ducts.

• Test blower operation by placing a hand

over the exhaust vent. Do not rely on the

sound of the blower. The blower should

exhaust a substantial amount of air. Fre-

quently check the intake vent for

obstructions before each cruise.

• Many manufacturers of carbon monox-

ide detectors offer a testing and recertifi-

cation program. We recommend that you

contact the manufacturer of your carbon

monoxide detector and have it tested

and recertified periodically.

! CAUTION

Should blower noise become exces-

sive, find and correct the source of the

noise before operating the boat.
