WARNING: Do not allow sealants containing acetic acid
(smells like vinegar) such as silicone rubber sealant to contact the
plastic pump housing or thru-hull connector. Such sealants can
attack the plastic, causing the pump housing to crack, resulting in
pump failure.
5. Insert thru-hull connector through the hole and tighten to hold
the thru-hull connector firmly in place. CAUTION: Do not
overtighten the nut.
WIRING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: Be certain that power source is 12-volt D.C. Higher
voltage will damage the pump.
1. Using the full length of wire provided (and additional wire if
necessary), connect wires to the pump as shown in the
diagram. (See Figure 2.)

2. Route wires out of the way and secure them to the bulkhead to
avoid pulling.
3. Using butt connectors sized for 16-gauge wire, splice fuse
holder into positive lead (brown) between the battery and switch.
Position fuse holder in a location that is easily accessible for
changing fuses.
IMPORTANT: Use fuses of the proper amperage (See Specification
Chart at top of sheet).
WARNING: FAILURE TO PROPERLY FUSE AND MAKE THE
APPROPRIATE WATERPROOF CONNECTIONS WILL VOID THE
PRODUCT WARRANTY.
4. Install a Three-Way Switch (Attwood No. 7615A) that allows for
automatic or manual switching modes.
5. Turn the pump on and twist the Test Knob clockwise to check
operation. Feed water into the pump. If output appears to be too
low, check the wire connections. Reversed connections result in
opposite impeller rotation that drastically reduces capacity and
can cause premature pump failure.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Occasionally check your pump to be certain debris is not jamming
the impeller and/or float within the housing. Use the test knob by
rotating in a clockwise direction. Careful attention will guarantee
outstanding pump performance.
To clean the water chamber, remove pump housing from the mounting
base by pressing in tabs on sides. Lift the pump housing away.
(See Figure 3.)
To clean the impeller, remove the impeller guard screw and lift the
impeller guard.
Remove all debris that has accumulated in pump chamber and
around the impeller. Ensure that all debris is removed from strainer
slots around the pump base.
Inspect the impeller to ensure that it is firmly attached to shaft and
is not cracked or broken.
Replace impeller guard, screw, and pump housing on base. Be
certain that all tabs are fully engaged.
Periodically check the electrical connections to ensure they are
water-resistant and mounted high and dry.
Do not use household cleaners on the pump because many of
them may damage the pump materials.
