Safety precautions I Exhaust gas If you come into contact with any of these fl uids, consult a doctor immediately. Exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide. This colourless If the engine gets too hot, switch it off and disconnect it and and odourless gas is extremely harmful and could lead to wait for it to cool down before handling.

Operation of the engine During operation Stopping the engine RPM speed of the engine Let the engine run at idle in the neutral position for few min- utes before turning it off, particularly if the engine has been Refer to the chapter «Technical specifications» for informa- running at high speeds and high throttle settings.
During the warranty period, it is essential that all work is produce limescale build-up and will reduce the cooling carried out by a Nanni Diesel authorised dealer. However, system’s effectiveness. This could lead to a piston jamming. some regular checks, particularly those made each time the If you do not use antifreeze and the outdoor temperature engine is used, can only be made by the owner.
Correct operation is characterized by a drop-by-drop water intake. If too much water comes in, contact your Nanni Diesel dealer. Control cables Inspect the cables and check that they are not shredded or loose.
Maintenance Fuel system Danger! : Total cleanliness must be guaranteed when working on the fuel circuit. No impurities must enter the injection pump and the injectors. Carry out each of these operations with the engine cold and stopped. Bleeding the fuel circuit The fuel circuit is self-priming but manual bleeding is required after replacing the fi...
Maintenance Fuel system Replacing the fuel prefi lter The fuel prefi lter is an optional component that purifi es the diesel before it is injected in the engine. These instructions are given as an example only. • Close the fuel valve on the fuel tank. •...
Maintenance Lubrication circuit Checking the oil level Attention! : Carry out these operations with the engine stopped. Hot oil and hot surfaces can burn. If oil of a different brand or viscosity to the previous oil is used, drain the old oil. Never mix two different types of oil. Observe the recommended draining intervals.
Maintenance Lubrication circuit Draining the engine oil Attention! : Carry out these operations with the engine stopped. Hot oil and hot surfaces can burn. The oil is drained via the drain orifi ce using the drain pump, with the oil slightly warm. •...
Maintenance Cooling circuit - coolant The cooling system enables the engine to operate at an optimal temperature and protects it against frost and corrosion. The cooling system must be fi lled with a coolant comprising 50% water and 50% anti-freeze and anti-corrosion additive. The coolant must be changed regularly as the additives become less effective over time.
Maintenance Cooling circuit - coolant Draining the cooling circuit The coolant in the cooling circuit must be drained in order to remove the various deposits that can build up in the circuit. • Start the engine and let it run at idle for few minutes. •...
Maintenance Cooling circuit - seawater I Attention ! : When the craft is in the water, there is a risk of water penetrating the craft when working on the seawater circuit. Water can penetrate the craft via circuit components found below the waterline. Close the seawater intake valve (if fi...
Maintenance Cooling circuit - seawater Replacing the seawater pump rotor The seawater pump rotor is an essential component. It must be replaced regularly along with the seal. A worn rotor could crack and damage the cooling system. Always have a replacement rotor on board the craft.
Maintenance Air fi lter I Attention! : Carry out these operations when the engine is stopped and cold. The air fi lter essentially reduces the level of noise made by the engine and purifi es the air injected into the combustion chamber.
Maintenance Engine electrical system Attention! : Stop the engine and the cut the battery supply before working on the electrical circuit. Alternator belt Make this check after running the engine when the belt is slightly hot. Attention! : Some parts of the engine can be extremely hot.
Maintenance Protection against corrosion - Zinc anode When at least two different kinds of metal are immersed in seawater, polluted water or water with a high mineral content, a chemical reaction occurs and an electrical current is established between the metals. This electrical current leads to the metal that is more active from a chemical point of view, or more anodic metal being eroded.
17. Spray an anti-damp spray on the engine and the riods of non-use. We recommend that you have these electric parts (starter, alternator, wire harness con- winterization operations carried out by a Nanni Diesel nectors and panel). authorised workshop. 18. Clean the hold and Install a dehumidifi er.
