The optional Gravity 3 Ballast System is an electronically
controlled ballast system that can be operated from the driver’s
seat. The switch panel to the 3 position system is located
directly below the shifter mechanism. Each switch allows
independent filling and draining of each ballast container by
simply hitting the fill or drain switch. If the system fails to fill
or drain, you may check the resettable breaker on the switch
panel, or the separate ballast fuse block located under the dash
area. The ballast bags can be found in the front ski locker and
in the rear v-drive storage areas depending on the the model
and ballast system.
Care should be taken that the ballast bags are situated properly
with the fill hose on top and drain hose on bottom and that all
fittings are installed securely. The bags should not be twisted
and the bags should be free to expand and drain completely.
Care should be taken to prevent sharp objects from coming in
contact with the bags. Cuts and punctures to the bags are not
warrantable.
Each Gravity Ballast System also includes a manual shut off valve
in case of emergencies. If closed, the valve will prevent any
water from entering the system and is only used in emergency
situations. Under normal use the valve should remain open to
allow full flow of water into the system.

Priming the System
To allow water into the system, the Gravity 3 Ballast System
utilizes a impeller pump to force water into the system. This
allows the ballast system to be filled while sitting still or running
slowly. If air becomes trapped in the system, it may be necessary
to idle the boat and allow the fill pump to prime fully.
Gravity Auto Timers
The pumps have a pre-set run time. The pumps will shut off
automatically to prevent overfilling. If the switch is turned off
and back on, the pumps will run an additional minute. (See
dealer for additional information or reprogramming.)
When bags begin to vent, shut off!
Do Not overfill ballast bags!
