24
To Operate the Macerator:
1. Make sure the macerator seacock is in the open position.
2. Press and hold the macerator switch. The macerator switch is a momentary switch, which
means that it needs to be held in the “ON” position during operation.
3. When the tank is empty, release the macerator switch.
4. Return the macerator seacock back to the closed position.
Dockside Pumpout
The dockside pumpout deck plate is located on the port deck trail, and is marked with the ISO
symbol WASTE. The dockside facility will have the proper connections / fittings to pump the holding
tank out.
Maintenance
Maintenance of the waste system will require you to check the fittings and hoses to make sure that
there are no leaks. If the system does require maintenance, contact your local dealer. Quicksilver®
recommends that you pump out the system before long periods of non-use. If you are storing the
boat during the winter, we recommend you winterize the system.
To Winterize the Waste System:
1. Empty the holding tank either via the macerator in an approved location or the dockside
pumpout.
2. Pump water through the system (via the toilet) to remove any residue waste.
3. Empty the holding tank again, removing all liquids.
4. Pour an environmentally safe antifreeze (Propylene Glycol based) in the toilet and pump
throughout the system.
Refer to the toilet manufacturer’s requirements for additional winterization procedures.
4. Bilge Pumps
Your vessel is equipped with two bilge pumps, with one located in the aft section of the boat, and
the second one located in the forward section of the boat. Access to the aft bilge pump is via the
motorwell access plate, while access to the forward bilge pump is through the interior liner floor aft
hatch. Both bilge pumps are rated for 500 GPH, and are activated automatically by a built in mercury
free float switch when the water in the bilge reaches a predetermined level. You can also manually
operate the bilge pump at the dash by pressing the bilge pump switch.
Inspect the bilge pump intakes and keep them free of dirt or material which may impede the flow of
The dockside pumpout deck plate does not have a chain
