Exhaust Elbow Installation
The Westerbeke Corporation offers a
45° and 90°
exhaust elbow as well as an exhaust riser you can
install
on your engine. Refer to the instructions
below when installing the exhaust elbow purchased.
NOTE: Fabricated exhaust elbows or risers attached
to the exhaust manifold must not exceed 8 Ibs when
unsupported.
L Coat only one side
of the exhaust gasket with
High Tack adhesive sealant (manufactured by
Permatex Company, Brooklyn, NY). Place this
coated surface against the exhaust manifold's
exhaust port flange (the gasket should stick
to the
flange without falling
off).
2. Place the clamp over the elbow's flange. Place
your exhaust elbow against the exhaust manifold's
flange
so the exhaust manifold's flange rests snug
against the exhaust elbow's flange with the gasket
centered between the
two. Now slip the exhaust
clamp over both flanges.
3. Tighten the clamp just enough so the exhaust
elbow can remain attached to the manifold and still
be rotated.
The exhaust elbow discharge
must be directed
downward so the mixture of raw water and exhaust
gases will flow/fall downward into the exhaust
mnlller which
must be positioned below the exhaust
elbow. There shonld be no loops or rises in the
exhaust hose connected between the exhaust elbow
and the mnlller, as these would trap water and
possibly allow water
to flow back into the engine
during starting or at shut
down.
4. Adjust the elbow by rotating it until the desired
alignment with the exhaust piping is acquired.
5. Carefully tighten the clamp between 8 to 10 Ib-ft,
or 96 to 120 Ib-in., or LI to 1.3 kg-m.
II CAUTION II
Approach the 10 lb-ft torque limit
with caution. The clamp's threads
will break
if more than 10 Ib-ft is
applied to the clamp.
If a leak exists, correct it immediately.
