MOUNTING PRECAUTIONSMount wiper motor on a flat surface. Failure to do so may
crack the housing when securing.

2.

For optimum performance, keep the wiper shaft 90° to thewindshield.

3.

Blade and arm should be installed approximately 1” (25.4 mm)
minimum away from windshield molding. Energize the motor
for short intervals to make certain the wiper blade does notstrike at either end of the wiping arc. If blade strikes at bothends, it will be necessary to shorten the arm and blade length
and/or reduce the sweep angle.

1.

MOUNTING & WIRING
Locate proper mounting position of wiper assembly, anddetermine whether adequate space is available.

2.

Drill wiper shaft hole first, using a 5/8” drill. It may benecessary to enlarge the 5/8” hole slightly with a file to facilitateease of installation.

3.

Use motor as a template to drill hole for mounting bracket. A
no. 10 size screw is recommended.

4.

Before mounting, connect wiring to wiper motor (see diagram).

NOTE: If the motor is installed in a location exposed tomoisture, fill in the wiring cavity with marine grade caulkor silicone after making the electrical connections in orderto prevent terminal electrolytic corrosion.

5.

The wiper motor may now be placed in position and the wiper
shaft attaching nut and washers installed. This nut should betightened no more than 30 to 45 in-lbs.

6.

The mounting bracket screw should be attached at no morethan 15 in-lbs. Do not over tighten.

NOTE: Please Read All Instructions Before Starting

CHANGING WIPING ANGLE
1.

Turn on and then turn off wiper switch and allow wiper tomove to parking position.
WARNING: Wiper should automatically park (move toone side or the other) after the wiper is turned off.
Failure to do so indicates that the wiper is incorrectly
wired. Review wiring diagram.

2.

Remove the wiper blade; remove wiper from its mountingposition.

3.

4.

6.

After remounting wiper motor, turn on motor and observe
operation prior to reinstalling wiper arm. Verify that wiper
rotates through the correct number of degrees and parks inthe correct position prior to installation of wiper blade.
Failure to do this could cause damage to wiper motor.

CHANGING PARKING POSITION

Remove the wiper motor cover mounting screws (Qty: 6)
using a Phillips head screwdriver.

1.

Remove the wiper motor cover as described under thesection, “Changing The Wiping Angle.”

AFI-1000 Angle Choices: 50, 65, 80, and 110 degrees
AFI-2000 Angle Choices: 45, 60, 80, and 110 degrees

2.

Note the current sweep angle inscribed on the angle plate.
Remove the POSITION SCREW. Remove the two (2)SWEEP ANGLE SCREWS.

3.

Rotate SWEEP ANGLE PLATE 180 degrees.

Remove the POSITION SCREW from the TRANSMISSION
PLATE. Remove the two (2) SWEEP ANGLE SCREWS.

NOTE: Depending on original parking location (right or left),the “position screw” will be either in the “6 o’clock” positionor the “12 o’clock” position. In order to reattach thetransmission plate to the original hole, you will need to movethe transmission plate to the other end of its travel (seedrawings below).

NOTE: Make sure that the SHAFT PLATE keeps in position
as shown on drawings below. Do not allow wiper output
shaft to rotate 180 degrees out of position (proper position
shown on drawings). If wiper output shaft rotates out ofposition shown on drawing, wiper motor failure will occur.
Rotate SWEEP ANGLE PLATE so that the desired angle
hole is in the “6 o’clock” position for right parking or the “12o’clock” position for left parking (see drawings below).

4.

Reinstall the two (2) SWEEP ANGLE SCREWS. Reinstall
the POSITION SCREW in the same sweep angle hole fromwhich it was removed.

Reinstall the two (2) SWEEP ANGLE SCREWS.
NOTE: Installing the position screw in any other angle holewill cause the parking position to be incorrect. If you wish to
make the sweep angle adjustment, see “Changing The
Wiping Angle” instructions.

Reinstall the POSITION SCREW.
Be careful to securely re-tighten ALL SCREWS to prevent
accidental loosening (15 in-lbs. maximum).

5.

Reinstall wiper motor cover, taking care to snug themounting screws without over tightening. Be sure totighten screws evenly around cover. Gap between the coverand base should be even all around.

Reinstall wiper motor cover as described under the section“Changing The Wiper Angle.”

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Although the AFI-1000 and AFI-2000 are made of U.V. stabilized, chemical resistant thermoplastics, it is recommended to periodicallyclean them with a mild soap to remove caustic residues.
