Optional Bottom Screen Assembly
Cord Strain Relief
On power cords 100 feet or longer with the watertight Quick Disconnect, the power cord is shipped sepa-
rately. It should now be attached to the stub cord by lining up the male and female halves of the discon-
nect and hand-tightening the blue collar. On these cords, the additional strain relief should be attached to
one of the lower float brackets as pictured. If you receive a 3-chain strain relief (6- or 8-gauge cord), attach
one chain to each of the three lower float brackets. If there is no strain relief chain, use the nylon cable tie
provided to secure the cord to a rope in order to prevent damage by the propeller. Before placing the unit
in the water, double-check the Quick Disconnect to make sure the threaded collar has not come loose. If
installing a new Quick Disconnect, please refer to Quick Disconnect instructions.
