2870  WALKAROUND

4-5

Windlass Switch
Located in the helm.  This switch controls the optional windlass which is mounted to the deck
directly above the rope locker.  It is protected by a circuit breaker of the type and rating
recommended by the windlass manufacturer.

Fishbox Pump Out
Located under the gunwale in the stern of the cockpit.  It is a momentary switch that activates the
overboard macerator pump out system for the stern fishbox.

Macerator Switch
The macerator switch panel is located in the bilge near the
macerator pump and accessed from the cabin through a
hatch below the aft berth.  It is a momentary switch that
activates the overboard macerator discharge system for the
holding tank.

Refer to the Interior Equipment chapter for additional infor-
mation on the operation of the overboard macerator dis-
charge system.

Cabin DC Accessory Breaker Panel
Power is distributed to the 12-volt cabin accessories through
individual circuit breakers located in the DC panel.  A main breaker,
located near the battery selector switches, protects the system from
an overload.  Some 12-volt accessories are operated directly by the
circuit breaker in the panel while others are operated by switches
fed by the panel breakers.

PROPER FUSE OR BREAKER PROTECTION MUST BE PROVIDED FOR ALL 12-VOLT
EQUIPMENT ADDED.  DO NOT OVERLOAD THE ACCESSORY CIRCUIT BREAKERS OR
OTHER CIRCUITRY THROUGH ADDITIONAL 12-VOLT EQUIPMENT.

The following is a description of the accessories controlled by the cabin DC breaker panel:

Refrigerator
Supplies 12-volt electrical current directly to the optional refrigerator when 110-volt is not
being used.
