recommends
this
service
be
performed
by
an
authorized
mechanic.
CAUTION
(WESTERLINK
or
NMEA-20DD):
The electronic componems
ill
the Digital Diesels draw a very small amount
of
amperage (milli-amps)from the
generator's starting battery when
the unit is in a static state. This maybe as much as
50
milli-ampsfor the system
ECU
and
50
milli-amps
for
each display.
This can be
as
much as
72
amp-hours
in
a months time with no generator use. It is no/necessary
fa
be concerned with this slight amperage draw during
normal seasonal use. However,
if
the generator set is not to be used
for
a number
of
months,
.Hlcll
as willter storage, it is best to disconnect the
DC
power
to the generator with a NMEA-2000 system
o(shl#
off
the
DC
breaker on the generators control box
for
a WESTERLlNK system.
NOTE:
Keep
ill
mind that the Westerbeke generator maybe the
DC
power slIpplyfor the vessels NMEA-2000 network.
A
CAUTION:
When
serviCing/changing
DC
components.
the
DC
power
must
be
turned
off
using
either
the
DC
breaker
or
the
