A full inspection of the engine must be made immediately on
delivery to confirm that there is no damage. If there is any damage then write this clearly on the
delivery note and inform your dealer or Beta Marine within 24 hours.

ENGINE STORAGE

The engine must be stored in a dry, frost free area and this is best done in its packing case. If
storage is to be more than six months then the engine must be inhibited (contact your dealer or
Beta Marine). Failure to inhibit the engine may result in the formation of rust in the injection
system and the engine bores, this could invalidate the warranty.
