WARNING!
Risk of water entry. Close the seawater cocks before
doing any work on the seawater system.
1 Close the sea cock(s).
2
Drain the raw water as described in Seawater Sys-
tem, Draining page 88.
3 Remove the zinc anodes from the heat exchanger

4 Check the zinc anodes and replace if consumed to
more than 1/3rd of original size. If not, clean the zinc
anodes with Emery cloth to remove the oxide layer

metallic contact between the anode and the metal
contact point.
