WARNING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: Be certain that power source is 12-volt D.C. / 24-volt D.C. Higher voltage will damage the pump.
4. Install a Three-way switch that allows for automatic or manual
switching models.
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.)
3. Using butt connectors sized for 18-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.
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.
2. Route wires out of the way and secure them to the bulkhead to avoid pulling.

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.
Periodically check the electrical connections to ensure they are
water-resistant and mounted high and dry.
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)
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.
To clean the impeller, remove the impeller guard screw and lift the impeller guard.
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.
Do not use household cleaners on the pump because many of
them may damage the pump materials. A

2. When the water level dropped to 20 -30 mm above the bottom flat surface of the strainer, the float switch's
contact point is disconnected, the float switch stops working, and then the pump ceases to work meanwhile.
When the brown wire of the auto bilge pump is connected to the battery's positive (+) terminal, the black
wire is connected to the battery's negative (-) terminal, this pump is same as the ordinary bilge pump and
has no automatic function.
When the brown white wire of the auto bilge pump is connected to the battery's positive (+) terminal, the black
wire is connected to the battery's negative (-) terminal, the pump has automatic function.
1. When the water level rise above the bottom flat surface of the strainer 40 - 50 mm, the float switch's contact
point is connected then the pump works.
