INTRODUCTION
These instructions are meant as a guide, and apply to the majority of installation requirements typically found on board vessels.

If you experience any difficulty in the fitting of these units, please do not hesitate to contact us for advice.

FITTING THE 110Nm MOTOR UNIT

For Pendulum and Pantograph Units

Establish a suitable area to install the Motor Unit.

1) NOTE the Motor Unit is MOUNTED from INSIDE the bulkhead.

2) Drill 1 hole Dia 30mm, for the Main Drive Liner / Spindle, position on bulkhead as shown on the relevant HM drawing supplied.

3) Drill 1 hole Dia 30mm, for the Idler Liner / Spindle, at 60 Crs to the Drive Liner/Spindle.
(Pantograph Units only.)

4) Drill 4 / 5 fixing holes 8.5mm dia, using the pre-drilled hole in the Motor Mounting Bracket as a template.
(It is normal to mount the bracket at right angles to the window.)

NOTE - for points 2), 3) and 4) above - use the relevant drilling template.
(Drawing Drilling Template)

5) ENSURE a proprietary sealant is used around all points of entry through the bulkhead.
(Not supplied)

6) Fit the Motor Unit inside the bulkhead and fix in place.
(Fixing bolts not supplied.)

For Pendulum Units Only

7) Fit the Rubber Washer over the Main Drive Liner, next to the bulkhead, then the Stainless Steel Washer. Fit the Nuts and the Weather Caps.

For Pantograph Units Only

7) Fit the Rubber Gasket over both the Liners, next to the bulkhead, then the Stainless Steel Idler Plate. Fit the Washers, the Nuts and finally the Weather Caps.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

The 110Nm Marine Motor is only available as 24v DC, two speed self-parking motor with Insulated Earth Return, as standard.

The motor should be connected through a two speed self-park toggle switch, or a multi speed control switch
(not supplied - Can be ordered separately).

For Ships Supplyís of nominal 110 / 120v AC 1 Phase a PSU / 115 / 24v DC / 6 or 12amp Unit will be required. Note the 6amp unit will power 1 Motor Units and the 12amp will power 2 Motor Units.

For Ships Supplyís of nominal 220 / 2420v AC 1 Phase a PSU/230/24v DC / 6 or 12amp Unit will be required. Note the 6amp unit will power 1 Motor Units and the 12amp will power 2 Motor Units.

WIRING THE POWER SUPPLY UNIT (PSU)

AC Primary Side

Connect the Live, Earth and Neutral wires on the AC Primary side of the Power Supply Unit to the Ships Supply -110 / 120v AC 1 Phase to a PSU / 115 Unit, or 220 / 240v AC 1 Phase to a PSU / 230 Unit
(Drawing PSU / 115 & PSU / 230)

DC Secondary Side

Connect the 24v DC (+ ve) to the Toggle or Multi Speed Control Switch as the positive ship¹s supply
Connect the 0v DC (- ve) to the Toggle or Multi Speed Control Switch as the negative ship¹s supply
(Drawing PSU / 115 & PSU / 230)

WIRING THE 110Nm MOTOR UNIT

To a Toggle Switch

Position 8 on the switch to terminal 31b on the motor (SELF PARK REVERSAL FEED)

Position 4 on the switch to terminal 53 on the motor (LOW SPEED)

Position 6 on the switch to terminal 53a on the motor (SELF PARK FEED) and the positive shipís supply - 24v DC (+ ve)

and the positive shipís supply - 24v DC (+ ve)

The WHITE wire on the switch to terminal 53b on the motor (HIGH SPEED)

The YELLOW wire on the switch to terminal 53 on the motor (LOW SPEED)

The BLUE wire on the switch to terminal 31b on the motor (SELF PARK REVERSAL FEED)

The BLACK wire on the switch to terminal 31 on the motor and the negative ship's supply - 0v DC (- ve)

The BROWN wire on the switch to the Washer Pump (+ ve)


FITTING THE WIPER ARM

1) INSIDE THE BULKHEAD. Connect the power to the Motor, run the Unit and switch off..

OUTSIDE THE BULKHEAD. While the Unit is being run, it is IMPORTANT to observe the direction the drive spindle rotates in immediately before it stops. This direction will give the PARK POSITION.

2) Fit the Arm onto the Spindle(s) allowing the Blade to lie approx. 50mm from the edge of the glass in the PARKED POSITION. NOTE: which is the Drive Spindle to fit the Main Side of the Arm on.

3) Fit the Flat Washer on to the spindle, next to the Arm Head, then the Nylock Nut.

4) Only tighten the Nylock Nut sufficiently to allow the Arm and Blade to travel across the glass when the Motor is run to see if the positioning is correct.

5) If incorrectly positioned - DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ROTATE OR TWIST THE ARM ON THE SPINDLE this will damage the splined end of the drive spindle, resulting in the Arm and Blade slipping in operation.

6) To correct alignment errors, - loosen the Nylock Nut and gently pull the Arm up the Spindle, realign and repeat stage 6) above.
(Arm Extractor is available)

7) When correctly aligned, tighten the Nylock Nut, on the Spindle and Flat Washer.

FITTING THE WIPER BLADE

1) Remove the Blade Retaining Screw and Nut from the Blade Clip.
(Fit the Spacer over the Blade if required.)

2) Push the Spacer and/or the Blade into the Blade Clip on the Wiper Arm.

3) Ensure that all the fixing holes align. Secure in place with the Blade Retaining Screw and Nut. Important DO NOT over torque the Blade Screw and Nut, as the Blade is required to pivot on the glass.

GENERAL

As we have no influence on the installation of complete windscreen wiper systems, we are unable to accept liability for installation errors.

The composition and installation of freely selected wiper systems lie within the sole responsibility of the customer. We are therefore unable to accept liability.

CAUTION! BEWARE OF INJURY!

BEFORE WORKING ON THE WIPER SYSTEM,
OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING REMARKS WITHOUT FAIL!

Most wiper systems have a park setting, which permits them to operate in the parked position if connected to the vessels electrical system, even if the wiper is switched off. FOR THIS REASON, AT THIS POINT IN TIME, NEITHER MAY THE WIPER ARM BE MOUNTED, NOR MAY ANY PERSON HAVE HANDS, FINGERS ETC ANYWHERE NEAR THE WIPER SYSTEM. Even small wiper systems can neither be braked nor stopped by hand.

NEVER REACH INTO THE AREA OF THE ROD LINKAGE WHEN THE SYSTEM IS RUNNING!

When putting into service (ie. when connecting the wiper motor to the vessels electrical system, even if the wiper switch is in the 0 position), never leave any loose items such as screwdrivers in the area of the wiper system, as flying objects could lead to injury.
