equipment and it is the sole responsibility of
the navigator-operator to ensure that, at any
point, any problem that will alter the boat's
course, rising from malfunction of
interceptors, should be dealt immediately by
the operator. At no circumstances, fault of our
interceptor equipment leading to any kind of
accident, creates liability for the
manufacturer.

Safety precautions
1. Place air unit in a dry space free of flammable or explosive gases.
2. For high speed boats, overtrim may cause unexpectable turn.
3. Improper use of trim tabs may result to accident or injury.
4. DO NOT PLACE YOUR FINGERS THROUGH THE BLADE HOLES, when blade is extended!
A good hint is that the closer the units are to the water line,
the best the bank control of the boat will be (Figure 5).

Drill Ø3
5mm
Allen Key No 5Screwdriver Drilling tool
Marking tool
(pencil or marker)
Sikaflex gun
Attention! If you are installing V type units make sure that
the 32mm hole is accessible from the inside of the boat
(Figure 3).
If the boat's transom has a significant curvature, it is necessary to
create a flat plane for the installation (acceptable flatness tolerance:
2mm).
If there is a double installation on the boat please allow a 18 to 20 mm
space between them (Figure 2).
Make sure there are no obstructions in the interior of the
area to be drilled (tanks, fuel lines, cabling) which can be
damaged or prevent the installation (Figure 1).
Before installation:
Less performance
For maximum performance and less drag, install interceptors on the transom so blades deploy vertically. If transom is not vertical to water plane,
correct the angle by using wedges or other means.
Optimal More drag Correct angle

For aluminum hulls, it is suggested Isolation Plates between hull and
interceptors to be installed. You can find installation instructions in the
Isolation Plates Kit.

Attention!
Other screws are not acceptable.
Place the bottom line of the drilling template in the
same plane with the hull bottom plane without any
part protruding (Figure 6)
All screws must be placed with their
respective washers.

To open cap you must ONLY
remove the M5 screws

Remove the cover of the unit and fix it with the screws
on the transom (Figure 9).
For aluminum or steel hulls, additional parts may be
required.
Attention!
All the holes must be sealed.
Attention!
After the opening of the holes, use sealant sikaflex 291
(Figure 8) in order to:
- seal the holes
- compensate for transom plane irregularities
- cement the unit to the hull.
The boat must remain 48 hours for drying.
The use of the 5,5 drill is suggested. The installer
of the units must make sure that the 5,5 mm
holes are suitable for the specific hull.
The diameters of the drills that can be used are
from 5,3 mm to 5,5mm (maximum) depending
on the quality of the hull.
Attention!
The diameters of the holes in the templates are
suggested for fiberglass boats. These dimensions
are suitable for the supplied stainless steel
screws that come with the units.
After placing the template in the desired position,
mark the pilot holes with a marking tool. Remove
the template and make sure the marks are clear
and visible. Also check for obstructions in the
inside of the transom.

In order to install the F fitting, create a 9mm
diameter hole. (Figure 10)
Place the F fitting in the 9mm hole and mark the
fixing holes to be drilled. (Figure 11)
Open the holes with a drill. (Figure 12)

Place the F fitting close to the transom, apply the necessary
amount of sealant (sikaflex) and mount. (Figure 13)

Tight the screws and connect the fitting with the interceptor
using an appropriate length of pipe. (Figure 14)

Tip: The F fitting can be placed anywhere on
the transom above or below sea level.

After placing the template in the desired position
mark the pilot holes with a marking tool. Remove
the template and make sure the marks are clear
and visible. Also check for obstructions in the
inside of the transom.
Start with the main fitting passage for the final
32mm hole, it is recommended to use a pilot drill
first and gradually move to the 32mm hole
(Figure 17).
Create the 32mm hole using a high quality holesaw.
(Figure 18).
Notice: only exactly 32mm diameter is acceptable.
Use sikaflex No 291 in order to seal the rubber
fitting (Figure 19).
Attention:
In order to verify the final cutting tool diameter hole it is
recommended that you first try a hole in a block of wood.
Attention:
Other screws are not acceptable.
The use of the 5,3 drill is suggested. The installer of the
units must make sure that the 5,5 mm holes are suitable
for the specific hull. The diameters of the drills that can be
used are from 5,3 mm to 5,5mm (maximum) depending
on the quality of the hull.
Attention!
The diameters of the holes in the templates (except the
center 32mm hole) are for fiberglass boats. suggested
These dimensions are suitable for the supplied stainless
steel screws that come with the units.

Remove the cover of the unit and fix it with the screws on the
transom using the holes previously opened (Figure 21)
If the transom thickness does not allow a
continuous 32mm hole it is necessary to open a
second angled hole from the inside of the boat.

Note: make sure the inside of the main 32mm hole
is not damaged otherwise there will not be proper
seal of the rubber fitting. (Figure 22)

Optional: Connecting Interceptors with Earthing Grid of boat
Except periodical replacement of anodes, you can enhance protection of interceptors from electrolytic corrosion by connecting
them to the earthing grid of the boat:
1. Drill through the hull one of the mounting pattern-holes on the transom.
2. Replace one regular self-tapping mounting screw (M6,3x32), with a longer screw (Inox 316, Φ6.3mm) so to run through the
transom wall (use sealant before tightening the screw).
3. Connect the screw with earthing grid of boat.
M6,3xL*
*Use inox 316 screw M6.3 of appropriate length
to run through the transom (not included in the set)
Attention:
All the holes must be sealed.
For aluminum or steel hulls, additional parts may be required.
Attention:
After the opening of the holes use sealant sikaflex 291
(Figure 20) in order to:
- seal the holes
- compensate for transom plane irregularities
- cement the unit to the hull
The boat must remain 48 hours out of the water for drying.

FW Series Interceptor and Anode Mounting and Coating Instructions
Note 1: You may apply protection coating on interceptor if you'd like so, but:
1. Do not apply coating on anodes
2. Do not apply coating on the area of interceptors which is in contact with anode (see Fig. 1a, 1b, 1c).
1c
Note 2: When in brackish or fresh water, use Magnesium anodes instead of Zinc (Zinc anodes are pre-
installed and they are appropriate only for sea-water).
1a 1b
Note 3: Check often condition of anodes and replace them when they lose about 50% of their mass. Life
time of anodes cannot be easily predetermined because it is related to sea-water characteristics as well
as other factors of sea environment.
