Your purchase of a Wolo OCEAN ALERT
®
Air Horn will complement your boat while offering an extra
level of protection. Wolo’s products are manufactured with the finest materials. Each horn is tested to ensure
it meets all of our manufacturing specifications, before being packaged. If you need help installing your new
Wolo horn, our technicians are available to answer your questions, Monday thru Friday, 9 AM to 4 PM EST
at 1-888-550-HORN (4676).
Before installation of the horn is attempted, it is important to read these instructions completely. The lives of
people can be dependent on a proper installation of the horn. The person doing the installation must have
knowledge of the proper method for mounting and securing the horn to the exterior of the boat as well as
knowledge of the boat’s electrical system. Again, read the instructions completely and note any messages
marked
“IMPORTANT” or “WARNING’’. A safe installation will prevent injury or damage to the boat.
WARNING: Installation of the OCEAN ALERT requires drilling. The installer must carefully inspect both sides
of the selected mounting locations to ensure that there are no wires, fuel line and or any other components that
could be damaged by drilling.
WARNING: If any wires are routed through drilled holes; always de-burr ensuring that there are no sharp
edges. Install a rubber grommet into all metal holes that wires are being routed through.

facing forward whenever possible. The NMMA
Certification Program requires this for boats 39’
or longer.

hole locations and drill to size.
