Before winter storage, it is essential to flush the engine's cooling system of salt, algae, and chemicals to avoid corrosion damage.
Before winter, it is also important to protect the cooling system with antifreeze (glycol) to prevent frost damage. Standard flushing muffs on the market require access to a hose with running water, and getting antifreeze into the system can be tricky. This creates a great need for an alternative solution.
THE WINTERIZING KIT consists of: -1 specially manufactured heavy-duty plastic bag 75 x 65 cm (width x height), which is reusable and equipped with a drainage hole. -5 STRONG-GRIP aluminum clamps with roller bolts. -1 fastening line 1.5 m.
Instructions: Remove the propeller. Seal the bag's drainage hole using a STRONG-GRIP by rolling the plastic twice around the roller bolt. Mount the bag according to the illustration and fill it with fresh water (or an antifreeze mixture) from a bucket, for example, so that the cooling water intake is covered with a good margin. Start the engine and let it idle (always follow the engine manufacturer's instructions). The liquid now circulates through the cooling system in a natural way for the engine. It is important to check that the cooling water is circulating and that the engine does not overheat during operation.
Empty the bag after use (into a container to reuse any antifreeze mixture) by removing the STRONG-GRIP to open the drainage hole.
THE WINTERIZING KIT can also be used for short engine test runs on land.
As an added bonus, the included 5 STRONG-GRIP clamps can be used as practical attachment points on the tarpaulin for the boat's winter cover.
