Description
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
Self-priming bilge pump can be mounted on any flat surface.
Fit the pump in a dry, well ventilated position where there is full access for service.
If installed in a verticalposition the motor must be above the pump head.
Use the rubber grommets provided to minimize vibration, do not overtighten the mounting screws.
It is better to work with a bilge control panel to avoid running dry.
Secure 19mm (3/4") id hose direct to the discharge ports using stainless steel hose clamps, or use 1/2? BSP pipe fitting using suitable jointing tape.
Use spiral reinforced hose (with a smooth internal bore) that will not collapse under suction, or rigid or semi rigid pipework systems.
The pipework must be compatible with the liquid being pumpejd.
Pipe runs should bekept as straight and short as possible.
Avoiding rising and dipping over avoiding rising and dipping over obstructions.
Fit a strainer on the inlet hose to prevent larger debris from entering the pump.
WIRING INSTRUCTIONS
Make sure all electrical connections in dry locations, connections in humid environments should be sealed to prevent corrosion.
Protect the circuit with a correctly rated fuse or circuit breaker in the red positive (+) lead as close as possible to the power source.
Connect the black motor wire to the negative (-) battery terminal.
Adequate voltage at the motor terminals when the pump is running due to partially discharged batteries or insufficient cable size may result in blowing fused, failure to start or poor pump performance.
WARNING:
If the fuse fails repeatedly do not fit a heavier fuse of bridge the fuse terminals with silver paper or metal wire.
Failure to observe this instruction may result in a fire hazard due to overheating of cables.
WARNING:
All marine pumps discharging overboard must be installed with the overboard discharge well above both static and heeled waterlines
