Motor meets USCG Electrical Standards 183.410 and ISO 8846
MARINE for IGNITION PROTECTION on gasoline powered vessels.
WARNING: Explosion hazard.
Do not use motor pump units for pumping
gasoline, solvents, thinners or other
flammable liquids with flash point below 100°F (37.8°C).
Doing so may result in explosion, which could cause personal
injury, death or property damage.
APPLICATION
Use for bilge pumping, livewell circulation and general pumping
requirements. If bilge water contains significant amount of oil,
the standard impeller should be replaced with impeller No. 6303-
0003-P, which is an oil-resistant nitrile material.
Pump has a dry prime suction lift of about 4 feet (1.2m) and a lift to
20 feet (6m) when primed. BE SURE SUCTION LINES ARE AIRTIGHT.
INSTALLATION
The pump must be mounted in a dry location – the motor is not
waterproof and must not be submerged.
SELECTION OF A COOL, VENTILATED location will generally extend
pump motor life. The unit can be mounted in any desired position.
It is best to mount so that water dripping from a loose port connec-
tion will not wet the motor. The pump head may be rotated 180° on
the motor to change direction of flow.
OPERATION
Flexible impeller pumps must NOT be run dry, as the pumped liq-
uid is the lubricant for the impeller. Observe the outlet and shut off
pump as soon as liquid stops flowing. An automatic level switch is
convenient to control the pump.
The pump cannot run against a closed outlet such as encountered
when using a garden hose type shut-off nozzle.
Pressure for normal operation should not exceed 20 feet of head
(8.7 psi).
Temperature of pumped liquid may be in the range of 45° — 180°F
(7° — 82°C).

PLUMBING CONNECTIONS
Pump ports have external 1" (25mm) hose barb and internal 1/2"
NPTF pipe threads. Also provided are two male port adaptors to al-
low the attachment of 3/4" female garden hose fittings. Use hose
that does not kink when bent and with sufficient wall thickness to
prevent collapse when used on suction side of pump. Hoses should
be routed so that some water will be retained in pump body to wet
the impeller. Wetting the impeller aids in priming and extends
impeller life. Use a strainer on the intake hose to stop trash and
solids from going through the pump. All hoses must have air tight
connections to enable faster priming.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
WARNING: Explosion hazard.
If pump is operated in an area containing
flammable vapors, wire leads must be
joined by insulated mechanical locking connectors. Loose
or inadequate wire connections can spark resulting in an
explosion. Which may result in property damage, personal
Connect black wire to negative (—) terminal of battery. The orange
wire should run to a fused overload protected switch with a 15 amp
rating, with a wire from switch to positive (+) terminal of battery.
Electrical circuit must be independent of all other accessories. Fail-
ure to connect black wire to negative and orange wire to positive
will result in backwards motor rotation and possible motor and
pump damage.
Correct motor rotation is clockwise looking at shaft end of motor.
Use proper wire size as determined by wire table below. Should
the fuse blow, replace with the same size fuse after determining
reason for blown fuse.
