The livewell system has a pump that draws water in
through a screen on the hull fitting and pumps the water
through an aeration spray nozzle into the livewell. The oxy-
gen content of the water increases as the small jets of
water streaming from the spray nozzle splash onto the sur-
face of the water in the livewell. The additional oxygen
helps keep fish in the livewell alive.
Water above the level of an overflow on the side of the
livewell flows through a hose and out through a fitting on
the side of the boat. Removing a drain plug in the bottom of
the livewell drains water from the livewell through a fitting in
the boat hull below the level of the bottom of the livewell.
T o fill the livewell:
1.
Be sure the plug is in place in the bottom livewell drain.
2.
T oggle the AERA
TOR switch at the bow panel to ON.
The livewell pump will start, and the livewell will fill with
water up to the level of the overflow.
3.
Toggle the switch OFF when the livewell is filled.
Operate the livewell aerator as needed to freshen and
maintain the oxygen supply by aerating the water in the
livewell.
T o ensure that your livewell remains clean and the water in
it remains fresh, empty the livewell after you have finished
using it. T o drain the livewell, remove the drain plug in the
bottom. Because water will drain only to the water level
outside your boat, drain the livewell after you remove your
boat from the water. If you are leaving your boat in the
water, insert the drain plug and bail the remaining water
from the livewell.
IMPORTANT
: If water in the livewell system freezes,
hoses can break as the frozen water expands. Be sure to
empty the livewell completely during freezing weather.
Do not operate the livewell pump if it is not pumping water.
Operating the pump dry can overheat its water-cooled
motor and damage the unit. If water does not come out of
the aerator nozzle:
1.
Check the livewell fuse on the bow panel. Replace the
fuse if necessary.
2.
Make sure the pump is not clogged. If the pump or
thru-hull fitting is clogged, you may be able to clear the
obstruction by forcing water back through the pump.
Using a garden hose, direct water flow into the pump
outlet until water flows freely from the thru-hull inlet.
3.
Make sure current is reaching the pump. Check and
tighten connections. Make sure wires are not broken.
4.
Remove access plate located in motor splash well and
check pump, hoses and clamps for leakage. Tighten
any clamps that are loose.
If you still have problems with the pump, contact your
Larson dealer.

1.
Before using the ski tow bar make sure that it is
securely fastened to the boat.
2.
T o prevent outboard motor damage when using the ski
tow bar, make sure that the ski rope does not come in
contact with the outboard motor.
3.
When using the ski tow bar, all passengers must stay
clear of the ski rope.
4.
Only use the fishing seats (mounted in the bow or
cockpit) if the boat is at a no wake speed or stopped.
