C. Once all of the holes have been drilled, apply a liberal amount of marine grade sealant between
the stern bracket and the hull, as well as around the 5/16” holes.
D. With a 1/2" wrench and 1/2" socket, fasten the stern bracket to the transom using (4) 5/16” x 3.5”
all-thread transom mount bolts, (4) 5/16” neo-bond washers, (4) 5/16” fender washers, and (4)
5/16” tall brass nuts. The rubber backed neo-bond washers will protect the powder coated surface of
the stern bracket, and they must not be over tightened. (See Image #2) FPO_Image_#2

Step 3: Choose HPU Mounting Location
A. Locate a dry compartment in the vessel with ample space to accommodate the HPU. The footprint
of the HPU is approximately 6.5”x7”.
-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 through the mounting bracket and into the HPU.
Step 4: Installing the Hydraulic Pump Unit (HPU)
A. 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 Green Marine biodegradable hydraulic fluid or an ISO 32
hydraulic fluid may cause damage to the HPU and will void your warranty.
B. Place the HPU bracket in the predetermined area of the vessel, and inscribe the four mounting hole
locations with a fine point marker.
C. Using a 9/64” drill bit, carefully drill holes in the newly inscribed locations.
D. Fasten the bracket to the vessel using a #2 Phillips-head screwdriver and the (4) #10 x 3/4” pan
head screws.
E. 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, (2) 3/8” neo-bond washers, and (1) rubber pump gasket. (See Image #3)

F. Unravel the red and black wires on the HPU. Route the red wire to a 12 volt positive source via a
battery switch, and route the black wire to a 12 volt negative source via a common ground post.
G. Prior to cutting the excess wire, ensure that there is an adequate amount of slack such that they
may be easily disconnected in the future.
