Fire protection
Do not block access to the portable
fire extinguisher in the stow compart-
ment. Smoking is prohibited whenever
fuels are being handled. Do not block
or prevent ventilation of the space
surrounding the fuel tank. Keep the
keelson clean by removing the stow
box (refer to page 23) and check regu-
larly for signs of fuel leakage or gas
vapours (W).
Fire-extinguishing equipment
The fire extinguisher is stored in the
stow compartment on the left (port
side) side of the boat and is clearly
labelled with a sign. Please refer to the
outline drawing on page 23.
To use: Remove the pin in the handle,
point the hose towards the bottom of
the flames and press down the handle.
In the case of fire outbreak in the area
surrounding the fuel tank, insert the
hose into the Fireport and press down
the handle. Service maintenance accor-
ding to details on the fire extinguisher.
Fire extinguisher capacity: 13A 89B C.
Cleaning
When cleaning, rinse with clean water
and use a sponge. If necessary, a mild
detergent can be used. A high pres-
sure washer can also be used (protect
the seat pads).
The boat has in production been
applied with a layer of Alu-Protect
(paraffin oil) on the outside hull.
The boat will oxidate. The mate-
rial build its own natural protecting
surface, an oxide layer, which is not
recommendable to remove by polish.
Anodes
There is an anode mounted on the
transom stern. Check anodes regularly
throughout the season and, if necessary,
replace them. Because anodes corrode,
they must be replaced annually. Original
sacrificial anodes are available from your
Linder dealer (C).
Corrosion
Prevent metal items, iron, copper, brass
or similar metals from remaining in
contact with aluminium surfaces on the
boat for more than necessary, as this
will reduce levels of corrosion (C).
Painting
If you keeping the boat in water where
marine growths occur on the hull or if
you suspect that there is pollution in
the water, the bottom can be cleaned
and a coat of anti-fouling paint app-
lied. (refer to the waterline drawing
on page 27). A correct anti-fouling
will protect you Linder Aluminiumboat
from marine growths and possible
damages due the pollutions from the
water.
Your nearest paint or boat dealer
will provide you with all the informa-
tion necessary for painting aluminium
boats. Never use alkalicolours contain-
ing copper, lead or quicksilver. The
combination with aluminium can cause
galvanic currents with corrosion as a
consequence (C).
Repairs
Contact your dealer for advice for re-
pairs that you can carry out by your-
self. Larger repairs should preferably be
carried out by professionals (C).
Changes
Contact your dealer for information
of the possibilities and, above all, for
recommendations of what you should
not do! You could endanger your own
safety and lose your warranty! (D).
