TEST AND OPERATION
I. ELECTRICAL TEST
Inspect and verify that all wiring is properly connected as illustrated in figure 2. Measure the D.C.
voltage across the solenoid. Cranking the engine should create a D.C. voltage approximately equal
to the battery voltage and simultaneously cause the plug to eject.
II. OPERATION
Install the connector in the Auto Eject WP and note that A.C. power is applied to the vehicle mount-
ed battery charger. Verify that cranking the engine ejects the shoreline.
NOTES AND CAUTIONS
I. STARTER CIRCUIT
The Auto Eject WP must be connected to the starter circuit so that the solenoid is energized only
while the engine is cranking. If the solenoid is energized continuously it will OVERHEAT and BURN
OUT.
II. CONNECTOR INSTALLATION
Do not permit the shore line to drop to the floor when it is ejected. Keep from falling by utilizing a
bungee cord restraint, cord reel or some other device. Dropping the connector may result in dam-
age or breakage. Kussmaul Electronics does not warrant the connector.
III. USING THE CORRECT CONNECTORS
The Auto Eject WP is supplied with mating connector. Do not replace with similar connectors. Use
only the Kussmaul Electronics supplied connector.
IV. ANNUAL MAINTENANCE
1. Keep connector and contacts of the Auto Eject WP clean.
2. Clean contacts with WD-40 solvent as required.
3. Lubricate contacts monthly with “vaseline” to insure free operation.
4. Check all gaskets and replace if warn.
V. MOUNTING LOCATION
If the Auto Eject WP is installed where the rear mechanism can accumulate dirt, grime or water, the
091-18CP, Rear Enclosure, must be installed as well.
VI. WARRANTY IMPACT
Failure to follow these notes and cautions will void the warranty
