DO NOT use pump to remove gasoline, oil or other flammable liquids.
Doing so could result in fire, explosion, and serious personal injury.
®
Always use the fuse amperage rating specified for your pump model.
Failure to do so could result in serious personal injury or fire hazards.

Installation Instructions
Attwood marine hardware, navigational lighting, bilge pumps, and other
marine accessories are specified more than any other brand by America’s
best-known boat manufacturers as original equipment. Look to Attwood for
quality replacement parts and marine accessories.
Attwood bilge pumps are designed to exhaust standing WATER ONLY.
They are not intended to prevent rapid accumulation of on-board water
due to rough weather, severe storms, hull damage, and/or other unsafe
navigational conditions.
Heavy Duty Bilge Pump
Do not allow materials containing acetic acid (vinegar smell) such as
silicone rubber sealant to contact the plastic parts of the pump. They
may react with the plastic, causing cracks and pump failure.
Notice:
Discharge of oil prohibited. The Federal Water Pollution Control Act
prohibits the discharge of oil or oily waste into the contiguous zone.
Violators are subject to a penalty of $5,000.

FEATURES
Attwood Heavy Duty Bilge Pumps are the newest development in high output
pumps. All models have a removable housing for simple installation and easy
cleaning. They connect to 12-volt D.C. systems only. There are two ways to
configure your Heavy Duty Bilge Pump – Automatic Operation or Manual
Operation. The bilge pump system can be converted to fully-automatic
operation by installing the Attwood Automatic Float Switch, Part No. 4201
or 4202.

AUTOMATIC OPERATION
All boats over 20' (6.1 m) in length which have sleeping accommodations
(excluding fold-out cockpit seats) require automatic bilge pump systems. For
fully-automatic operation, follow the AUTOMATIC FLOAT SWITCH INSTAL-
LATION and AUTOMATIC OPERATION WIRING instructions.

The following materials are needed if no pump mounting pad is in place:
• 1/2" (1.27 cm) thick marine plywood block large enough to mount pump
(and automatic float switch, if used)
Recommendations are based on amount of gallons exhausted per hour
(GPH). GPH measurements are typical of production pumps tested using
smooth-bore hoses, at 0' head. “Head” refers to the vertical distance between
the pump nozzle and the water discharge location. GPH is reduced as head is
increased.
• Hand-held roller
• Fiberglass—18 oz. (.5kg) mat or woven roving
• Polyester resin and catalyst
The chart below shows gallons and liters per hour ratings for 0' head and 3'
(91.4 cm) head. GPH/LPH may also vary depending on power source, hose
type, and other variables.

3. Inspect impeller chamber and motor shaft behind impeller. Remove any
foreign objects.
Important:
Although the switch is submersible, the lead wires must terminate in a
waterproof connection. Mount wires above the highest possible water mark
to prevent electrolysis damage to the boat.
4. Inspect “O” ring on lower chamber for nicks, cuts or other damage. Apply a
light coat of petroleum jelly to “O” ring surface.

6. Install and tighten retaining screws.
See figure 4
7. Attach motor housing to pump base by aligning four retaining tabs and
twisting clockwise until lock button snaps into place.
6. Test pump by ensuring that pump turns on when water level is above float
switch, and shuts off when water level is pumped below float switch. Cycle
the pump with water in the bilge several times to ensure that the system is
functioning properly.
