Installation
• The Rule Bilge Pump is self priming up to 9.5ft (3m).
• Install the Rule Bilge pump in a clean, dry location. (This is not a
submersible pump.)
• Uses multi-positional ports for easy mounting of the pump.
• If mounted vertically, the motor should be above the pump head.
• Use rubber grommets provided to absorb
vibration.
• Use 3/4" (19mm) i.d. spiral reinforced hose
(with a smooth internal bore), or semi-rigid
pipework systems.
• Connect the hose to inlet and outlet of
pump using stainless steel hose clamps.
• All suction connections must be airtight and
free of sharp bends or restrictions.
• Inlet hose should run to the deepest point
of the bilge area.
• Inlet hose should be cut at an angle in the
bilge and be secured on a bulkhead or
stringer with stainless steel clamps to pick
up all of the bilge water.
• Run the discharge hose from the pump to
the 90° thru-hull.
• Install the thru-hull with a water tight sealant
and above the water line of the vessel.
• Use a 7/8" (22mm) hole saw to cut the hole
for the 90° thru-hull.
• Secure all plumbing hoses to a bulkhead or
stringer.
WARNING:
All marine pumps discharging overboard must be installed
with the overboard discharge well above static and heeled waterlines.
WARNING:
Do not use any Rule pump for petrol, petroleum products or
any products with a flash point below 98°F (37°C), explosion or death may occur.
