WeatherDeck SPST momentary Off momentary lever switch

The designation "momentary Off momentary" means the switch has a stable central "Off" position. When the lever is pushed in one direction, it momentarily activates one circuit and returns to the "Off" position as soon as it is released. Similarly, when pushed in the other direction, it momentarily activates another aspect of the circuit (or the same circuit differently) and also returns to "Off" once released. It does not remain in the "On" position without manual holding.

This switch is equipped with three quick-connect terminals (faston) of 0.250 inch (6.35 mm) male type, facilitating electrical cable connections.

The switch has three terminals. The center terminal is typically connected to the power source (positive). The two outer terminals are connected to the two functions or directions you wish to control momentarily. For example, one terminal for "up" and the other for "down", or one for "horn" and the other for another momentary function.

The switch is designed to be weather-resistant. For optimal sealing in highly exposed environments, the use of a compatible sealing cap or boot (sold separately) is recommended to protect the top of the lever and the mounting hole.

For installation, you will typically need a drill with a 12.7 mm (1/2 inch) bit for the mounting hole, a wrench or pliers to tighten the mounting nut, and crimping tools for the Faston connectors on the electrical cables.
