OEM Installation of the WFCO 8735/40 Power Center
(This is a non-warranty item.)
NOTE:
Select a mounting location near the shore power and battery (batteries)
and cut a rough opening 1/8 wider than the box to allow the power
?
center to slide in easily.
The fuse rating that the manufacturer suggests for the output fuses will
be marked on the unit. Replace only with same type and rating.
During the manufacturing process, be sure that all converter openings are
protected from debris falling into the unit.
If the reverse battery protection fuses are blown during
installation, be sure that the battery has been connected properly, then
replace the fuses with ATC "Littelfuse ” Type 257 with the same rating as
the original.
Select a mounting location that is appropriate to prevent excessive
heat, water, moisture, dust and dirt entering the unit installed. Allow
a minimum of two cubic feet of clear airspace and any additional
venting as necessary to prevent the unit from overheating.
