6. Instructions for Use
Supersub 500 / Supersub 1100 - Manual System:
Step 1: When fitted on their own, these pumps must be activated by putting the switch into the ON position (Figure 3, Supersub
500 Manual System).
Step 2: The Supersub must be turned off as soon as the water has been evacuated from the bilge, as running the pump when it
is dry will shorten the life of the pump.
Supersub 500 / Supersub 1100 - Automatic System:
Step 1: When used with BE9001 or BE9002 the pump can be left on automatic or switched to manual activation (Figure 3,
Supersub 500 Automatic system).
Supersub Smart 650 / Supersub Smart 1100:
Step 1: Set the 3 way switch to Automatic (Figure 3 Supersub Smart 650/1100), the pump will run when necessary. Place fingers
over sensor area to check pump is activated, remove fingers and wait for the pump to stop (15 seconds). Check pump regularly
to ensure no clogging occurs (Figure 5).

9. Service Support & Warranty
The Supersub range is a non serviceable product range. Should the pump fail due to mishandling or should the product be outside
of its warranty period, the only option is to purchase a new complete unit. For full warranty statement please see document
enclosed. Due to extreme conditions found in the bilge of boats, we recommend that your submersible bilge pump is replaced at
least every 3 years, this is due to temperature changes and the different chemical environments.
Whale's policy is one of continuous improvement and we reserve the right to change specifications without prior notice.
