INTRODUCTION

Thank you for choosing a Balmar high-output alternator. This alternator is uniquely

designed to provide the finest performance and durability for your vessel.

When used with a Balmar multi-stage regulator, your alternator can provide even greater efficiency when charging
deep-cycle flooded, standard flooded, gel, AGM, LiFePO

, Optima and other marine battery technologies. When

preset for your battery type, the smart regulator will guide your alternator through a charging program that’s
tailored to provide your batteries with the best care possible.

SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS

Before installing your new alternator, please take a moment to

consider the following guidelines for safe alternator installation

and operation. Failure to follow these guidelines could result in

injury or damage to your vessel’s electrical system.

1. Always disconnect your batteries and turn your battery

switches to their “OFF” positions prior to installing your al

ternator.

2. Remove any loose fitting clothing or jewelry which could

become entangled in your motor or other machinery.

3. Wear ANSI-approved safety glasses or eye wear.
4. Ensure that the engine has cooled sufficiently before begin

ning installation.

5. DO NOT install your high-output alternator without ensuring

that system wiring is sufficient to handle increased amper

age loads.

6. Be sure that your work area is properly ventilated and that

no fuels or solvents are present in and around your work

area.

7. DO NOT operate your charging system without proper fus

ing. Failure to do so could result in severe injury and/or

damage or loss of your vessel. DON’T take chances with

fusing.

8. DO NOT attempt installation while using alcohol or medica

tions which could impair your judgement or reaction time.

9. Use the right tool for the job. Use of improper tools could

result in damage or injury.

10. Take time to read the manual. Equipment damage and

possible injury may result from an incomplete understand

ing of the proper installation and use of the alternator.

CAUTION: The following instructions are intended for use by

experienced marine electrical installers. If you are not suffi

ciently experienced with marine electrical systems, we recom-

mend a qualified electrician be used for installation.
