C 280/S 280/C 310/S 310

Windlass (Optional)

Turn off the breaker when the windlass is not in use to reduce the possibility of accidentally activating the

windlass. To open the breaker turn the lever to the "OFF" position. To reset or turn on the circuit breaker,

rotate the lever to the "ON" position.

Other Breakers

The refrigerator (S 280 and S 310 only) is controlled by a toggle style breaker that can be turned on and off

at will.

All remaining devices and circuits are protected by 'push to reset' breakers that are in the normally "ON"

position. Should any of the breakers trip, the breaker can be reset by pressing the plunger. Each breaker is

labeled with the name of the device it protects.

The stereo memory and aft bilge pump float switch are always on regardless of the battery switch position.

Power to the stereo is supplied by the stereo breaker located on the helm panel. The forward and aft sump

breakers are not used.

Breakers are also provided to protect the battery charger wiring, engine charging isolator wiring, the electric

head and the holding tank macerator. Check the charger and engine isolator breakers and reset as necessary

if you experience a battery charging problem.

Downrigger circuits, protected by a 30 amp breaker, for aftermarket installation are provided with wiring that

is routed to the port and starboard gunwales just aft of the gunwale boards. Appropriate terminations for the

selected equipment must be provided by the installer.
