About the Ultima Bilge Pump
The Ultima Bilge pump is a state of the art
automatic bilge pump that uses advanced
electronic sensing technology to detect
the presence of water in the bilge area of
a boat and consequently discharge of that
water. It is built upon the proven UltimaS-
witch technology which uses micro electri-
cal fields to detect the presence of water.
The Ultima Bilge pump is a sealed, sub-
mersible pump and electronic float switch
that allows for a simple installation for the
end user.
Warnings:
To eliminate personal injury or damage to
property during installation, servicing and
maintenance, make sure to disconnect
electrical power. This pump was designed
to remove standing bilge water only and
should not be used to pump petroleum
products such as gasoline, oil, or flam-
mable liquids.
Make sure to use the appropriate fuse size
recommended by your pump model. Using
the wrong fuse can lead to personal injury,
property damage and fire hazard.

Stainless screws into the strainer holes
to mount the strainer. Do not over tight-
