Launching Recommendations - Jenneau SUN ODYSSEY 30I Owner's Manual

LAUNCHING RECOMMENDATIONS

A lot of skill and care is required to commission your JEANNEAU boat. The proper
working of all your boat's equipment is the result of the quality of the commissioning
operations.
In order to remain completely under guarantee in the case of any failure of parts or materials
the first launching and the first trials of different equipment must be carried out by your
JEANNEAU dealer.
If later you have to launch your boat yourself, you should take the following precautions:
BEFORE LAUNCHING
- If your boat is to be fitted with sounder and speedometer, allow for the relevant fittings and
their installation.
- Check the water intake strain box for cleanliness.
- Check the engine and reduction gear oil levels (refer to engine manual).
- Turn off the engine cooling water drain valves.
- Retract the speedometer into its housing (it may be damaged by the handling belts).
- For the on-line engines, check the anode at the end of the shaft is in place. Check the nut
tightening (the lock washer shall be turned over onto the nut). The anode shall not be
painted.
- Turn off all the water inlet and drain valves (sink, washbasin, heads, engine).
HANDLING
- Install a fore rope, a rear rope and fenders.
- When craning, check that no device is crushed by the belts (sounder, speedometer, shaft,
etc.).
- Locate the strap positions using the stick-on markers. The belt position will be useful during
the craning for a future launching.
- Do not stay on board or under the boat during hoisting.
- The proper working of all your boat's equipment is the result of the quality of the
commissioning operations.
