Systems
Notice that each battery switch features an on and off
position. Upon leaving the vessel it is recommended that
each battery switch be turned to the “off ”position. This
will deactivate both engines and the house related circuits.
The automatic bilge pumps will still operate with the
battery switches turned off.
There are three resetable circuit breakers mounted on the
battery switch panel for each battery switch. At times when
the battery charger or the alternators are not charging the
batteries it protects the wiring from the battery isolator
to the battery terminal. If a circuit breaker “pops” find
the root cause before resetting the breaker.
DC CIRCUIT PROTECTION
A source of engine circuit
protection is located on the
engine itself. Notice that the
engine breaker is resetable.
The breakers are located on
the engine close to the large
cannon harness plug.
Consult the engine
manufacturer’s manual located in the owner’s information
pouch for further information. The engine breaker
powers the key switch as well as the dash gauges. It does
not power the dash switches such as bilge pump, blower,
etc. If the engine circuit breaker “pops” determine the
cause of the malfunction before resetting the circuit
breaker.
