5 Winter storage procedure Make sure that the engine compartment is well ventilated during the winter period. Good ventilation prevents damp in the engine compartment, thus preventing corrosion of the engine from occurring. The engine should be inspected at the end of the sailing season and any necessary repairs carried out. Consult a Vetus Dealer if help is required with this.
5 Winter storage procedure Inspections and maintenance work to be carried out: page 1 Check the zinc anodes. 82 2 Drain off the water from the fuel system and fill the fuel tank. 84 3 Make sure that the engine fuel system is filled with a fuel mixture with protective properties. 85 4 Flush out the raw water circuit with fresh water and if necessary fill with antifreeze. Clean the heat exchanger if necessary. 86 5 Make sure that the cooling system is filled with a suitable anti-freeze.
5 Winter storage procedure VD01196 VD01197 1 Zinc anode There are 2 zinc anodes in the heat exchanger to protect engine parts that come into contact with the external water from galvanic corrosion. 82 There is a third zinc anode in the after cooler. The speed at which the zinc anodes are sacrificed depends on many external factors. Check the zinc anodes; a new zinc anode is 15 mm in length; if a zinc anode is shorter than 7 mm it should be replaced.
5 Winter storage procedure VD01196 Check and replace the zinc anodes as follows: • Stop the engine. VD01197 • Replace the (new) zinc anodes and the copper rings. Use a sealant, for example Loctite® Thread Sealant with PTFE or LOXEAL® 18-10 Pipe Sealant. • Close the sea cock. • Remove the zinc anodes from the heat\ exchanger housing and the after cooler respectively. • Open the sea cock, start the engine and check for leaks.
5 Winter storage procedure VD00027 VD01198 2 Fuel system Drain the water from the water separator/ fuel filter and the fuel tank. Make sure that the tank is completely filled with fuel. This prevents condensation from forming. 84 Fit a new fuel filter element.
5 Winter storage procedure Tip! Caution Never run the engine under load with this mixture of fuel and oil. Combine running the engine with the protective fuel mixture with flushing the raw water circuit with fresh water, see 4 Raw water system. VD00136 3 Protective fuel mixture • Connect the fuel supply pipe to a can filled with protective diesel fuel, for example ‘Calibration Fluid’ (ISO 4113) or with a mixture of 1 part of engine oil* to 9 parts of clean fuel**. • Stop the engine.
5 Winter storage procedure Tip! Combine flushing the raw water circuit with fresh water with running with the protec Heat exchanger Only clean the heat exchanger if this is absolutely necessary, see page 74 Raw water pump Check the impeller of the raw water pump at least once every two years, see page 65. VD00125 4 Raw water cooling system • Close the sea cock. • Remove the lid of the water strainer. • If necessary, clean the raw water strainer.
5 Winter storage procedure VD01169 5 Fresh water cooling system Take care that no anti-freeze is spilled into the waterway (anti-freeze is poisonous). • Check the seal between the lid and housing after cleaning and re-assembling the strainer. To avoid corrosion during winter storage the cooling system must be filled with an antifreeze/water mixture (or a coolant). For specifications see page 119. N.B.

9 Operating media Fuel Fuel Quality Grade Winter-grade fuel Use commercially available diesel fuel with less than 0.5% sulphur content. If the sulphur content is higher than 0.5%, the intervals between oil changes should be halved e.g. change oil every 250 hours. Don’t use fuel with more than 1% sulphur! Waxing may occur at low temperatures, clogging the fuel system and reducing engine efficiency.
9 Operating media Lubricating oil Engine oil Recommended lubricating oil viscosity Lubricating oils are specified according to performance and quality class. It is usual for specifications to be given in accordance with the API (American Petroleum Institute) and the ACEA (European Automobile Manufacturers Association). There are two important considerations when it comes to ambient temperature in order to achieve satisfactory engine performance.
9 Operating media Caution Do not mix oil of different brands together. Oils of different brands are mostly not compatible with each other. If they are mixed, the mixtures can cause components such as piston rings, cylinders etc. to seize up and cause wear to moving parts. The best thing is to keep to one brand and one type of lubricating oil for each subsequent service.
9 Operating media Gearbox Lubricating Oil Only use a recognised brand of oil for lubricating the gearbox.

9 Operating media Coolant Coolant fluid Water quality for coolant preparation The preparation and monitoring of coolant in inter-cooled engines is especially important because corrosion, cavitation and freezing can lead to engine damage. Use as coolant a mixture of a cooling system protective liquid (anti-freeze, ethylene glycol based) and tap water. Use preferably tap water.
