allow the alternator to fully charge the two batteries,
but not allow the operator to drain down the engine
start battery.
B. Battery Switch Operation - Dual
Power to the engines and all 12 volt electrical equip-
ment is controlled at the battery selector panel.
Separate breakers are provided on the battery
selector switch panel to protect the stereo, shower
sump, aft bilge pump, hatch lift, ship systems and
windlass (if applicable). Note: The “SHIP’S SYSTEM”
circuit breaker must be placed in the “ON” position to
provide power to all non-engine related 12 volt
electrical equipment.
If the designated engine battery fails to start the
engine, place the switch to the “EMERGENCY
START” position and attempt to start the engine.
Current is drawn from both batteries (the engine and
ship’s systems batteries) to start the engine. Once
engine has been started return the switch to the “ON”
position. Once back at port, be sure to have the failed
engine battery checked for possible service or re-
placement.
The battery selector switch positions for the dual
battery selector switch is as follows:
Note: An added feature is positive and negative studs
incorporated into the battery switch panel. These
studs are used for raising the engine hatch should the
battery fail to start the engine even in EMERGENCY
START position.
“OFF” - With the battery selector switches in the “OFF”
position and the “SHIPS SYSTEMS” circuit breaker in
the “OFF” position, all 12 volt power to the boat is shut
off except to the shower sump and aft automatic bilge
pumps, stereo memory, and windlass. Always turn the
battery selector switches and the SHIPS SYSTEMS”
circuit breaker switch to the “OFF” posi tion when the
boat is unattended for an extended period.
NOTICE
The positive and negative studs incorporated
into the battery switch panel are intended to
raise the engine hatch when properly attached
to an external 12 volt source (12 volt battery).
Once properly attached to the 12 volt source
use the engine hatch switch at the helm to
raise the engine hatch. These studs are not
designed for jump-starting a dead battery.
NOTICE
DO NOT turn the battery selector switch to the
“OFF” position while its corresponding engine
is running. Alternator and wiring damage could
result.

Connect each of the red (positive) battery cables
leading from the battery selector switch to the
positive (+) terminal on each of the three batteries.
Refer to Figure H1.

boat. The isolator will allow any alternator to charge
all three batteries. “ON” is the recommended switch
position for normal boat operation.
NOTICE
Be sure all three red (positive) cables are
installed on the positive (+) battery terminals.
