Wintering
Read the operating and maintenance instructions for the engine that goes with your boat and
the instructions for wintering carefully.
In the absence of other instructions, proceed as follows:
- Close the engine water intake seacock,
- Disconnect the pipe from the engine water intake seacock,
- Drain the sea-water circuit,
- Place the pipe into a drum of –25° anti-freeze coolant,
- Run the engine until the fluid comes out of the exhaust,
- At the end of this operation, re-connect the pipe to the seacock,
- Attach a notice to the electrical panel and the battery isolator stating that the
engine water intake seacock is closed.
IX. FUEL INSTALLATION
In the event of deterioration, flexible fuel pipes must be replaced by pipes bearing the same
markings. Do the same for all fuel lines.
ATTENTION!
● Depending on the trim and loading of your boat, not all of the nominal fuel capacity may be
used. Always maintain a 20% reserve for safety.
● Avoid contact between flammable materials and hot parts of the engine.
● Clean up any overflow of fuel that may occur when filling the tanks.
You must never:
● Store flammable materials in unventilated spaces.
● Smoke while filling tanks.
● Obstruct ventilation openings (vents, engine air intake grating): Make sure they are
completely clear.
● Modify the installation, unless work is done by a qualified technician.
X. HELM SYSTEM
The steering system plays a vital role in the safety and comfort of your boat.
Tiller
The DUFOUR 412 is fitted with a dual wheel with a system of rudder cables and chains as
well as with an emergency tiller.
Checks to be carried out periodically: Check the play in the various elements (rudder
stock/bearings, tension and wear in mechanical components) and grease the sprocket and
chain if necessary.
In the event of any doubt or problem, consult your agent.
