Auto-float Switch
• The automatic bilge pump uses a float switch (auto-float) to turn On the pump whenever water rises above a pre-
set level in the bilge.
• The auto-float switch is mounted next to the automatic bilge pump.
• The auto-float switch is wired directly to the battery and will normally function even when the boat is completely
shut down and left unattended.
Test the auto-float switch often
as follows:
1. Lift the float switch test button
up to turn On the bilge pump.
• If the pump does not turn On,
check the fuse on the fuse block.
• If the fuse is good but the switch
still doesn’t work, it may mean
the switch is bad or possibly the
battery is low.
2. Push test button all the way
down to return the float switch
to auto mode.
