410 Convertible

Outlets Galley

Supplies 120-volt AC electrical current to the cabin ground

fault interrupter (GFI) electrical outlets.

Air Conditioner Helm

Supplies 120-volt AC electrical current to the ﬂybridge air

conditioning control panel and heater.

Additional AC Breaker Panels and Switches

AC Power Selector Switch

This switch is installed in the cabin breaker panel. Move the

selector switch to the “SHORE” position when connected to

dock side power. Move the selector switch to the “GENERA

TOR” position when the generator is being operated.

Generator Operation Panel

These switches control the starting, running, and stopping of

the optional generator. The procedures may vary depending

on the model and type of generator installed in your boat. An

owner operator’s manual for the generator has been supplied

with this manual. Please refer to it for details on the genera

tor operation.

The generator panel also includes gauges and warning lights

that monitor critical engine systems.

Note: Diesel generators consume DC electrical current

and charge the battery just enough to compensate

for the DC electrical current the engine requires

to operate. Therefore, it is important to activate

the battery charger to maintain the house battery

whenever the generator is running.

Note: The generator may not be able to operate all AC

accessories at the same time. POWER MANAGE

MENT PRACTICES may need to be observed

depending on the AC power load.

4.4 Generator

The generator is activated by the generator battery and is located

in the rear of the engine compartment. There is a removable

access panel on the side of the genset that enables you to check

and service generator components. The generator oil should be

checked whenever you check the oil in the main engines.

The generator engine uses a closed cooling system with a

seawater cooled heat exchanger. There is an expansion tank

for the engine coolant mounted aft of the port engine, near the

generator. Make sure the ﬂuid level in the expansion tank is

kept between the maximum and minimum lines of the tank.

The seawater cooling system operates exactly like the cooling

system on the main engines. It includes a strainer that prevents

debris in the seawater from entering the cooling pump. The

Typical Generator Control Panel

strainer is located on the stringer aft of the starboard engine. It

is important to check and clean the strainer regularly to ensure

the seawater system can circulate enough water to provide

cooling for the closed cooling and exhaust systems on the

generator. The strainer is visually inspected by looking through

the glass case, for accumulation of marine growth, weeds, and

other foreign objects. If clogged or dirty, the strainer should

be cleaned.

A CLOGGED SEA STRAINER CAN RESTRICT THE

SUPPLY OF COOLING WATER TO THE ENGINE AND

EXHAUST COMPONENTS, WHICH COULD RESULT

IN SEVERE ENGINE AND EXHAUST SYSTEM

DAMAGE.
