Step 3: Hydraulic Pump Unit (HP
Choose a mounting location
1. Locate a dry compartment in the vessel with ample space to accommodate the HPU. The footprint of the HPU
is approximately 6.5”x 7”.
NOTE:
Be sure to allow enough clearance surrounding the HPU such that the hydraulic tubing
will not make a severe bend when exiting the compartment. Also, allow enough space to
install the (2) 3/8” x 3/4” bolts
E
through the mounting bracket and into the HPU.
1. Remove the fill cap on the HPU and fill the reservoir to the “full” line
with the supplied quart of Green Marine® biodegradable hydraulic
fluid or an ISO 32 hydraulic fluid.
WARNING:
Using anything other than an ISO 32 hydraulic fluid, such
as Green Marine, may cause damage to the HPU, and will
void your warranty.
2. Place the HPU bracket in the predetermined area of the vessel and
mark the four mounting hole locations with a fine point marker.
WARNING:
Before drilling holes to mount the HPU mounting bracket,
inspect the area beneath the mounting surface to insure
that the drill bit will not cause any damage.
3. Drill a hole into each of the marked hole locations with a 9/64” drill bit.
4. Fasten the bracket to the vessel using a #2 Phillips-head screwdriver
and the (4) #10 x 3/4” pan head screws

5. Once the bracket is securely fastened, use a 9/16” wrench to attach
the HPU to its bracket using the (2) 3/8” x 3/4” bolts

NOTICE:
This HPU will draw current (40 mA) from the battery source when not in use. JL Marine Systems, Inc.
strongly recommends the use of a battery disconnect switch.
6. Route the red wire to a 12 Volt positive source via a battery
switch and trim the wire to length.
7. Route the black wire to a 12 Volt negative source via a
common ground post and trim the wire to length.
8. Install the (2) ring connectors
J
using wire strippers and
wire terminal crimpers.
9. Heat the (2) ring connectors
J
with a heat gun until
their respective jackets shrink completely and adhere
to the wires.
WARNING:
DO NOT CONNECT the red or black wire at this
time. These wires will be connected once the hydraulic tubing is installed.
