the selector lever is tem225 porarily attached to the actuating shaft Before leaving the WESTERBEKE plant each transmission undergoes a test run with Dextron III ATF transmission fluid The residual fluid remaining in the transmission after drain255ing acts as a preservative and provides protection against corrosion for at least one year if properly stored TRANSMISSION FLUID Check the transmission fluid level on the dipstick If the transmission has not been filled fill with Dextron III and continue to use this fluid During the first 25 hours of opera255tion keep a lookout for any leakage at the bell housing out255put shaft and transmission cooler This fluid should be changed after the first 25 hours and approximately every 300 operating hours thereafter andor at winter layup A CAUTION Be certain the transmission is filled and the correct size cooler is properly installed before starting the engine SHIFT LEVER POSITION The gear shift control mechanism and linkage must position the actuating lever on the transmission exactly in Forward FNeutral Nand Reverse Rshifting positions A detent ball located behind the transmission lever must work freely to center the lever in each position The gear shift positions at the helm must be coordinated with those of the Velvet Drive actuating lever through shift mechanism adjustments An improperly adjusted shift mechanism can cause damage to the transmission The shifting mechanism and transmission actuating lever should be free of dirt and well lubricated to ensure proper operation Shifting Into Gear Place the gear shift in Neutral before starting the engine Shifting from one selector position to another selector posi255tion may be made at any time below 1000 rpm and in any order Shifts should be made at the lowest practical engine speed Start the engine and set the throttle at idle speed allow the transmission fluid to warm up for a few minutes Neutral Move the gear shift lever to the middle position You should feel the detent This centers the actuating lever on the With the control in this position hydraulic power is completely interrupted and the output shaft of the does not tum NOTE Some transmissions are equipped with a neutral safety switch Unless the transmission actuating lever is perfectly aligned in neutral the engine starter will not activate Forward Move the gear shift lever to the forward position You should feel the detent The actuating lever on the transmission is in the forward position The output shaft and the propeller shaft move the boat in a forward direction Reverse Move the gear shift lever to the reverse position You should feel the detent The actuating lever on the transmission is in the reverse position The output shaft and the propeller should move the boat in a reverse direction asternNOTE Moving the transmission actuating lever from Neutral Position to Forward is always toward the engine Reverse is always away from the engine If boat moves backwards with

it is removed A yellowgray emulsion indicates the presence of water in the oil Although this condition is rare it does require prompt attention to prevent serious damage Call a quali255fied mechanic should water be present in the oil Raw water present in the oil can be the result of a fault in the exhaust system attached to the engine andor a siphoning of raw water through the raw water cooling circuit into the exhaust filling the engine This problem is often caused by the absence of an antisiphon valve its poor location or lack of maintenance 2 Replacing the Oil Filter When removing the used oil fil255ter you may find it helpful and cleaner to punch a hole in the upper and lower portion of the old filter to drain the oil from it into a container before removing it This helps to lessen spillage A small automotive filter wrench should be helpful in removing the old oil filter NOTE Do not punch this hole without first loosening the filter to make certain it can be removed Place some paper towels and a plastic bag around the fil255ter when unscrewing it to catch any oil left in the filter Oil or any other fluid on the engine reduces the engines cooling ability Keep your engine cleanInspect the old oil filter as it is removed to make sure that the rubber sealing gasket comes off with the old oil filter If this rub255ber sealing gasket remains sealed against the filter bracket gently remove it SEALING GASKET APPLY CLEAN ENGINE OIL WHEN INSTALLING SPIN ON TURN ON HAND TIGHT When installing the new oil filter element wipe the filter gaskets sealing surface on the bracket free of oil and apply a thin coat of clean engine oil to the rubber gasket on the new oil filter Screw the filter onto the threaded oil filter nipple on the oil filter bracket and then tighten the filter firmly by hand NOTE Generic filters are not recommended as the mater255ial standards or diameters of important items on generic parts might be entirely different from genuine parts Immediately after an oil filter change and oil fill run the engine to make sure the oil pressure is normal and that there are no oil leaks around the new oil filter 3 Filling the Oil Sump Add new oil through the oil filler cap on the top of the engine or through the side oil fill After refilling run the engine for a few moments while checking the oil pressure Make sure there is no leakage around the new oil filter or from the oil drain system and stop the engine Then check the quantity of oil with the lube oil dipstick Fill to but not over the high mark on the dipstick should the engine require additional oil Engines Generators 21 AdobeUCS6 AdobeUCSfollow the SYSTEM Zinc Anode or pencil is located in the raw water cooling CIrCUIt wIthin the heat exchanger The purpose of having zinc is to sacrifice them to electrolysis action taking place In the raw water cooling circuit thereby reducing the effects of electrolysis on other components of the system The condition of the zinc anode should be checked monthly and the anode cleaned or replaced as required Spare anodes should be carned on board NEW REPLACE CLEAN REUSE NOTE Electrolysis action is the resultof each particular installation and vessel location not that of the engine If the zinc anodes need replacement hold the hex boss into which the zinc anode is threaded with a wrench while loos255ening the anode with another wrench This prevents the hex boss from possibly tearing off the exchanger shell After removing the zinc note the condition of it If the zinc is in poor condition there are probably a lot of

throttle advanced NOTE Hydraulically operated transmissions have a neutral safety switch through which the starter solenoid energizing circuit passes This switch is open when the transmission is in gear so the starter solenoid will not energize 2 Tum the KEY to the ON position 2 oclock3 Depress PREHEAT 10 to 15 seconds4 While pressing PREHEAT push START As the engine fires release START S Hold PREHEAT until the oil pressure reaches 15 psi andor the alarm shuts off NOTE Some unstable running may occur in a cold engine This condition should abate as normal operating temperature is reached and loads are applied NOTE Should the engine fail to start wait 30 seconds then repeat the above procedure and PREHEAT longer 6 Allow a few minutes for the engine to warm at a com255fortable rpm approximately 1000 rpmthen reduce the rpm and get underway Engines Generators 12 ENGINE BREAKIN PROCEDURE DESCRIPTION Although your engine has experienced a minimum of one hour of test operations at the factory to make sure accurate assembly procedures were followed and that the engine oper255ated properly a breakin time is required The service life of your engine is dependent upon how the engine is operated and serviced during its initial 50 hours of use Breakingin a new engine basically involves seating the pis255ton rings to the cylinder walls Excessive oil consumption and smoky operation indicate that the cylinder walls are scored which is caused by overloading the engine during the breakin period Your new engine requires approximately 50 hours of initial conditioning operation to break in each moving part in order to maximize the performance and service life of the engine Perform this conditioning carefully keeping in mind the fol255lowing 1 Start the engine according to the STARTING PROCE255DURE section Run the engine at fast idle while checking that all systems raw water pump oil pressure battery chargingare functioning 2 Allow the engine to warm up preferably by running at fast idleuntil the water temperature gauge moves into the 130 1400P 55 60260Crange 3 While using the vessel run the engine at various engine speeds for the first 25 hours Avoid prolonged periods of idling 4 Avoid rapid acceleration especially with a cold engine S Use caution not to overload the engine The presence of a grey or black exhaust and the inability of the engine to reach its full rated speed are signs of an overload 6 During the next 25 hours the engine may be operated at varying engine speeds with short runs at full rated rpm Avoid prolonged idling during this breakin period CHECK LIST o Monitor the control panel gauges o Check for leaks of fuel and engine oil o Check for abnormal noise such as knocking friction vibration and blowback sounds o Confirm exhaust smoke When the engine is cold white smoke When the engine is warm almost smokeless When the engine is overloaded some black smoke and soot NOTE See the TRANSMISSION section of this manual for breakin information on your transmission Engines Generators 11 5 PROCEDURE THE STARTING SYSTEM The 44N35Cdiesel engine has a 12V DC electric starter The start circuitry is designed so that the PREHEAT button must be depressed for the time specified in the preheat chart Then while keeping the PREHEAT button engaged the START button is depressed to crank the engine Starting Procedure 1 Place the transmission in neutral and advance the throttle control to slightly open A CAUTION Make certain the transmission is in neutral Starting in gear could result in serious damage to your transmission your boat and vessels nearby 2 Tum the KEY SWITCH to the ON position 2 oclock3 Depress the PREHEAT switch The voltrrieter panel lights gauges meters and fuel solenoid will be activated The PREHEAT switch should be depressed in accor255dance with the following chart Atmospheric Temperature Preheating Time 41260F5260Cor higher Approx 10 seconds 41260F5260Cto 23260F 5260CApprox 15 seconds 23260F5260Cor lower Approx 20 seconds Limit of continuous use 30 seconds before cranking NOTE The START button will not energize unless the PRE255HEAT button is depressed Depressing the PREHEAT button activates the glow plugs in the cylinder head so use the PRE255HEAT intermittently to avoid overheating the glow plugs 4 While still depressing the PREHEAT button depress the START button This will engage the starter solenoid Upon engine starting release the START switch Do not release the PREHEAT switch until the oil pressure reaches 5 10 psi Then as long as the high water temperature and low oil pressure protective circuits do not activate the engine will remain energized and continue to run NOTE When starting A voltage drop will occur when the preheat button is depressed 5 Should the engine not start when the START button is depressed for 10 to 20 seconds release both buttons and wait 30 seconds repeat the procedure above and preheat longer Never run the starter for more than 30 seconds A CAUTION Prolonged cranking intervals without the engine starting can result in the engine exhaust system filling with raw water This may happen because the pump is pumping raw water through the raw water cooling system during cranking This raw water can enter the engines cylinders by way of the exhaust manifold once the exhaust system fills Prevent this from happening by closing the raw water supply throughhull shutoff draining the exhaust muffler and correcting the cause of the excessive engine cranking Engine damage resulting from raw water entry is not a warrantable issue the owneroperator should keep this in mind 6 Once the engine starts check the instruments for proper oil pressure and battery charging voltage NOTE Never attempt to engage the starter while the engine is running NOTE Some unstable running may occur in a cold engine Depressing the PREHEAT button for 1015 second intervals will help stabilize the engine rpm until the engine operating temperature reaches 170 190260F 77 88260Cand a propeller load is applied to the engine When the engine is running and the PREHEAT button is depressed a charging load on the DC alternator will be discernible Starting Under Cold Conditions Make sure the lubricating oil is appropriate for the prevailing temperature Use oil with an API Specification of CF or CG4 SAE 30 lOW30 or 15W40 The battery should be fully charged to minimize voltage drop Use a sufficient amount of preheat to aid in starting See the chart elsewhere in this section Stopping Procedure To stop the engine bring the throttle to an idle position and place the transmission in neutral Allow the engine to idle for a few moments to stabilize temperatures Turn the engine off using the stop control cable If your engine is equipped with an optional fuel shut off solenoid turn off the key switch at the control panel NOTE Make certain this key switch is in the OFF position 12 oclockIf the key switch is left ON the battery will discharge An engine alarm buzzer is provided to warn the operator of this condition key switch ONThe best method of preventing the battery from discharging is to remove the key from the key switch after stopping the engine Engines Generators 9 this manual AdobeUCSDIESEL FUEL ENGINE OIL AND ENGINE COOLANT DIESEL FUEL Use fuel that meets the requirements or specification of Class 2D ASTMand has a

WESTERBEKE recommends a mixture of 50 antifreeze and 50 distilled water Distilled water is free from the chemicals that can corrode internal engine surfaces The antifreeze perfonns double duty It allows the engine to run at proper temperatures by transferring heat away from the engine to the coolant and lubricates and protects the cooling circuit from rust and corrosion Look for a good quality antifreeze that contains Supplemental Cooling Additives SCAsthat keep the antifreeze chemically bal255anced crucial to long tenn protection The distilled water and antifreeze should be premixed before being poured into the cooling circuit NOTE Look for the new long lasting antifreeze that is now available Antifreeze mixtures will protect against an unexpected freeze and they are beneficial to the
