WARNING
CAUTION
reason for the leakage is to be determined and corrected soonest possible!
The bilge pump can provide you with crucial extra time if your boat is taking in water,
allowing you to find and deal with the source of a leak or, in extremes, to put on life
jackets and hopefully keep your boat afloat long enough for help to arrive. Please
however note that the pump capacity cannot keep up with major leaks.
You can also manually activate the electrical bilge pump at the console switch panel by
pressing and holding the bilge pump button (see chapter 7, figure 3, position 5). Push this
button
and hold it to operate the bilge pump.
The bilge pumping system is not designed for damage control.
Check the function of the bilge pump at regular intervals. Try to empty the bilge manually
with the spring-loaded switch located on the switch panel every time before boat use, and
make sure the pump works. Bilge pump failure could potentially cause the boat to sink if there
is an unnoticed water leakage.
For complete instructions on operation and maintenance, we refer to the separate OEM
owner’s manual that was developed specifically for this equipment. It is provided with the
Ockelbo document bag.

RANSDUCER AND PLOTTER

DEPTH FINDER
B18 AL:
This model is delivered with a GT-20 transducer installed at the lower end of the
transom. The boat is therefore ready for an optional installation of a bracket-mounted
Garmin plotter/depth finder.
B18 CC & DC:
These models are delivered with a GT-20 transducer installed at the lower end of the
transom. They are also delivered with a Garmin 72dv plotter/depth finder, flush mounted
on the dash.
For all models, be careful to not damage them when the boat is lifted or winched to a
trailer or cradle, or at very shallow waters. The transducer is mounted on an adjustable
Ockelbo aluminium mount plate, for easy height adjustment without a need for tools.
