MATERIALS REQUIRED

•Three #8 stainless fasteners, suitable length for mounting surface

•Cordless drill and 1/8" (3mm) bit

•Hose clamps (Attwood # 9185, 2 per connection)

•Mounting pad: marine plywood, fiberglass cloth and resin

•Manual (# 7615A) or automatic float switch (#4201 or 4202)

•Fuel-resistant, reinforced smooth bore outlet hose

INSTALLATION LOCATION

1.Position pump in the lowest accessible part of the bilge. On sailboats, location should be centered over keel. (Figure 1)

2.Do not mount pump directly to hull. Attach base strainer to a marine plywood mounting pad that is fiberglassed to the hull.

HOSE CONNECTION INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT: To prevent airlock, hose must rise continually upward to the thru-hull connector with no dips or sharp bends. Support hose if necessary.

1.Orient pump outlet for a direct, unobstructed hose path.

2.Secure all connections with hose clamps.

3.If no thru-hull connector exists, install at 12" min. (25mm) above water line. Apply marine sealant around thru-hull flanges on interior and exterior of hull.

PUMP MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS

1.To access mounting holes, remove base strainer. Hold housing with one hand, depress locking tab with other. Twist counter-clockwise and remove pump housing from base. It is not necessary to remove motor cartridge for installation. (Figure 2)

2. Use base as template to mark 3 mounting holes in mounting pad.

CAUTION: Do not drill through hull. Before drilling be sure mounted pump will be correctly positioned with pump nozzle pointing toward thru-hull connector. (Figure 1)

3.Remove base. Drill three 1/8" (3mm) pilot holes at marked locations.

4.Replace base. Attach with #8 stainless steel fasteners.

5.Re-attach pump to base. Insert into base, twist clockwise until tab snaps in and prevents turning. (Figure 2)

WIRING INSTRUCTIONS

Make all wire connections above the highest water level. Use marine grade wire connectors only. Waterproof all connections with suitable materials. (Figure 3)

NOTE: Failure to make waterproof connections and fuse pump properly will void the product warranty.
