To reinstall the power cartridge:
1. Make sure the “O” ring is properly
located and coat the “O” ring with
a light film of vegetable oil or min-
eral oil (Fig. 2).
2. Align the two cams on either side
of the power cartridge with the two
slots on the outer housing. Press the
power cartridge into the housing
and twist clockwise. Ensure proper
reinstallation by attempting to twist
the fins counter clockwise without
lifting the tab. The cartridge should
stay in place.
If applicable, the autofloat switch should also be checked often for proper opera-
tion. Lift the float by turning the plastic insert, where the wires enter the housing, 1/
4 turn counter clockwise (Fig. 3).
As the float is lifted, the bilge pump should turn on. If lifting the float does not turn
the pump on, check the inline fuse. If the fuse is good but the switch does not work,
it may indicate a bad switch or possibly a low battery.
