WARNING

MAKE SURE THAT ALL AC POWER TO THE BOAT HAS BEEN

DISCONNECTED. FAILURE TO REMOVE ALL BOAT AC POWER COULD RESULT IN ELECTRICAL SHOCK CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.

Determine which power cable is from the pump (16 gauge cable) and strip the outside insulation back about six inches. Then strip each of the three individual wires back about 1/4 inch. Facing the WHITE terminal block on the side of the electric box, locate the connection labeled "PUMP". Using the appropriate size flat blade screw driver, open the connections marked "WHITE" and "BLACK" and slide the "BLACK" and "WHITE" wires into the open connector slots for each color. Make sure that no bare wire is exposed outside the connector slot and tighten the screw. Pull each wire to insure it is tightly connected. Using an appropriate size electrical ring connector, attach the "GREEN" wire to the "GROUND" post located on the mounting bracket.

WARNING

HAVING ANY BARE WIRE EXPOSED OUTSIDE THE WHITE TERMINAL BLOCK COULD CREATE ELECTRICAL SHOCK CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.

Next, locate the 115 (or 220) vac power cable from the Circuit Breaker Panel (12 gauge cable) and connect this cable to the electric box WHITE terminal block by inserting the wires into the connector slots marked "POWER". To do this, follow the same procedure as with the pump connections. (SEE ABOVE WARNING ON EXPOSED BARE

WIRE CONNECTIONS)

Locate the BLACK terminal strip on the outside of the electrical box (just above the power terminal block) and attach the thermostat power cable. This terminal strip is color coded for easy determination of which wire is attached to which connection ("RED" to "R", "GREEN" to "G" etc.). Any excess cable may be neatly coiled next to the box or cut off and shortened to fit. If excess is cut off, do not make connections with bare wires, install new connectors on each wire.

IMPORTANT

MAKE SURE THAT YOU SECURE ALL LOOSE WIRING AND HOSES WITH APPROPRIATE SIZE NYLON CLIPS OR CABLE TIES TO MAKE SURE THAT BOAT OR WAVE ACTION WILL NOT CAUSE STRESS OR KINKING.

NOTE:

THE FX-1 THERMOSTAT CONTROL BOX IS PRE-WIRED FOR YOU. ONLY ELECTRICAL (110V / 220V) AND PUMP CONNECTIONS ARE REQURIED ON THE CONTROL BOX INSTALLATION FOR THIS PRODUCT.

Now connect the air splitter and air ducting. You may use appropriate size cable ties or a high grade ducting tape. If the air splitter is attached directly to the unit air collar, we
