INTRODUCTION
SERIAL
NUMBER
LOCATION
The engine's model number and serial number are located on
a nameplate mounted on the side
of
the engine.
The engine's serial number can also
be
found stamped into
the engine block
on
the flat surface
of
the block just above
and inboard
of
the injection pump. Take the time
to
enter this
information
on
the illustration
of
the nameplate shown below,
as this will provide a quick reference when seeking technical
informatio~
and/or ordering repair parts. p
An identification plate on the top
of
the engine air intake also
displays the engine model and serial number.
CARBON
MONOXIDE
DETECTOR
WESTERBEKE recommends mounting a carbon monoxide
detector in the vessels living quarters.
Carbon
monoxide,
even
in
small
amounts,
is deadly.
The
presence
of
carbon
monoxide
indicates
an
exhaust
leak
from
the
engine
or
generator
or
from
the
exhaust
elbow/exhaust hose,
or
the fumes from a nearby vessel are
entering your boat.
If
carbon
monoxide
is
present,
ventilate
the
area
with
clean
air and correct the problem immediately!
NOTE:
A carbon monoxide warning decal has been provided
by
WESTERBEKE. Affix this decal in a visible position in the
engine
room.
UNDERSTANDING
THE
DIESEL
ENGINE
The diesel engine closely resembles the gasoline engine,
since
the
mechanism
is
essentially
the
same.
The
cylinders
are
arranged
above
a closed
crankcase;
the
crankshaft
is of
the same general type as that
of
a gasoline engine; and the
diesel engine
has
the
same
types
of valves,
camshaft,
pistons,
connecting
rods
and
lubricating
system.
Therefore,
to a great
extent, a diesel engine
requires
the
same
preventive
maintenance
as
a gasoline engine.
The
most
important
factors
are
proper
ventilation
and
proper
maintenance
of
the fuel, lubricating and cooling systems.
Replacement
of
fuel and lubricating filter elements at the
time periods specified is a must, and frequent checking for
contamination (that is, water, sediment, etc.) in the fuel
system
is
also essential.
Another
important
factor
is
the
use
of
the same brand
of
high detergent diesel lubrication oil
designed specifically for diesel engines.
The diesel engine does differ from the gasoline engine,
however, in its method
of
handling and firing
of
fuel. The
carburetor and ignition systems are done away with and in
their place is a single component - the fuel injection pump -
which performs the function
of
both.
ORDERING
PARTS
Whenever
replacement/service
parts
are
needed,
always
provide
the
generator
model
number,
engine
serial
number,
and
generator
serial
number
as
they
appear
on
the
silver
and
black narae plate located on the generator end. You must
provide
us
with
this
infonnation
so
we
may
properly
identify
your generator set. In addition, include a complete part
description and part number for each part needed (see the
separately furnished
Parts List). Also insist upon
WESTERBEKE packaged parts because will fit or generic
parts are frequently not made
to
the sarae specifications
as
original equipment.
SPARES
AND
ACCESSORIES
Certain spares will be needed
to
support and maintain your
WESTERBEKE generator. Your local WESTERBEKE
dealer will assist you in preparing an inventory
of
spare parts.
See the SPARE PARTS page in this manual. For Engine and
Generator Accessories, see the
ACCESSORIES brochure.

Care
Of

Supply
Use
only
clean diesel

The clearance of
the
components
in
your

is
very
critical; invisible dirt

It
is
important
to
buy

and
keep

To
assure
that
the

use
is
clean
and
pure,
the
following practice
is
advisable:

COOLANT
WESTERBEKE recommends a mixture of
SO%
antifreeze
and
SO%
distilled
water.
Distilled water
is
free
from
the
chemicals that can corrode internal engine surfaces.
The
antifreeze perfoons double
duty.
It
allows
the engine
to
run
at proper temperatures
by
transfemng
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
(SCAs)
that keep
the
antifreeze chemically
balanced, crucial
to
long teon protection.
The
distilled water
and
antifreeze should
be
premixed
before
being poured into
the
cooling circuit.
NOTE:
Look/or
the /lew environmelltallyjriendly long lasting
antifreeze that
is
now available.
PURCHASING
ANTIFREEZE
Rather
than
preparing
the
mixture, WESTERBEKE
recommends buying
the
premixed antifreeze
so
that
so
that
when
adding coolant
the
mixture
will
always
be
correct.
There are
two
common types of antifreeze, Ethylene
Glycol
(green)
and
Propylene Glycol (red/purple), either
can
be
used
but do
not
mix
the
two
and
if changing
from
one
to
another,
flush
the
engine thoroughly.

MAINTENANCE
Change
the
engine coolant every

RECOVERY
TANK
The
coolant recovery tank allows
for
the

without introducing
air
into
the

tank
is
provided
with
fresh

and
with

WATER
COOLING
CIRCUIT
The
raw
water
flow is created by a positive displacement
impeller
pump. This
pump
draws
water
directly from the
ocean,
lake,
or
river through a
hose
to the water strainer.
The
raw
water
passes from the strainer through the heat
exchanger
(through the heat
exchanger
tubes) where
it

Circulating fresh water coolant.
The
raw water is
then discharged into the water injected exhaust elbow, mixing
with
and
cooling the exhaust gasses. This mixture
of

Heat
Exchanger
ZINC
ANODES
The
heat exchanger
is a copper
tube which
encloses
a num-
ber
of
small copper tubes.
Raw
water is
pumped
through the
small
copper
tubes and the freshwater
coolant
from the
engine is circulated around the
copper
tubes.
The
raw water
removes heat from the freshwater coolant. _
Zinc
Anode
A
zinc
anode, or pencil, is located in
the
raw
water
cooling
circuit within the heat exchanger.
The
purpose
of
the zinc
apode is to sacrifice itself to electrolysis action taking place
in the
raw
water cooling circuit, thereby reducing the effects
of
electrolysis
on
other components
of
the system.
The
con-
dition
of
the zinc anode should
be
checked monthly
and
the
anode cleaned
or
replaced as required.
Spare
anodes should
be carried
on
board.
NOTE:
Electrolysis action is the result
of
each particular
installation and
vessel location;
not
that
of
the generator.
If
the
zinc
pencil needs replacement, hold
the
hex boss into
which the zinc pencil is threaded with a
wrench
while loos-
ening
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
zinc
flakes within
the exchanger. Remove the
end
of
the heat exchanger
and
clean
the
inside
of
all zinc debris.
Always
have
a spare heat
exchanger
end gasket in case the present
one
becomes
dam-
aged
when
removing the end cover. Replace the gasket (refer
to
your
engine model's heat exchanger end
gasket
part num-
ber), o-ring, cover, and install a new zinc pencil.
Heat
Exchanger
Service
After approximately
1000
hours
of
operation, remove, clean
and pressure test the engine's heat exchanger.
(A
local auto-
motive radiator shop should
be
able to clean
and
test the heat
exchanger.)
.
NOTE:
Operating in silty and/or tropical waters
may
require
RAI""VAT.ii'<
that a
heat
exchanger cleaning
be
performed more often than
every
1000

by
the

poor lOcation
or
lack
of

2.
Replacing
the oilfilter. When removing the used oil
filter, 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
withoutfirst
loosening
the
filter
to
make
certain
it
can
be
removed.
Place
some paper towels and a plastic bag around the
filter when unscrewing it
to
catch any oil left in the
filter.
(Oil
or
any other fluid on the engine reduces the engine's
cooling
ability. Keep your engine clean.) Inspect the old
oil filter
as
it
is
removed
to
make
sure
that
the
rubber
sealing
gasket comes off with the old
filter.
If this rubber
sealing
gasket remains sealed against the filter bracket,
gently
remove it.
When
installing the new oil filter element, wipe the filter
gasket's
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 tighten the filter
firmly
by hand.

NOTE:
Generic filters are not recommended, as the

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
nonnal
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. 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 engme.
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.
