Fuel Filter; Closing Valve Of The Fuel System - Jeanneau MERRY FISHER 585 Owner's Manual

Engine running problems may have different origins, including dirty fuel. The injection pump
may wear out if there is water in the system.
The water results either from the condensation resulting from an insufficiently filled tank, or
from a filler cap either not closed properly or with a damaged seal.
In order to prevent any water infiltration, the fuel runs through two filters:
- One filter is an integral part of the engine, its role is to filter fuel very finely. To know
when you have to intervene and how frequently you have to change it, please refer to
the engine's manual.
- The second filter is on the pipe that links the tank to the engine, it plays the role of a
water decanter and prefilter.
Change the pre-filter at least once a year.

CLOSING VALVE OF THE FUEL SYSTEM

As for the procedures in case of fire, refer to Chapter 2.
The tanks' nominal capacity cannot be fully used due to the load and the need to
maintain the correct trim. A 20% reserve should be kept.
