Section 6 - Bilge System

320 Outrage-Owner’s Manual

The 320 Outrage bilge pump system
consists of: (1)-1100 GPH pump and
(1)-2000 GPH bilge pump that are
each operated by a float switch that

will activate automatically when wa-

ter in the bilge reaches a certain level. The 1100 GPH
pump is located forward of the fuel tank and can be
accessed through the console interior. The 2000 GPH
pump is located aft of the freshwater tank and can
be accessed through the motorwell hatch.

Bilge Pump

BILGE PUMP

The bilge pump is wired directly to the battery. Be sure
that the bilge pump float switch is clear of debris to
prevent continuous operation and subsequent dis-
charge of the battery.

NOTICE

OPERATION:
There is a  switch marked “AFT BILGE” and “FWD
BILGE” on the switch panel.  Depressing the switch
will energize the pump regardless of the position of
the float switch. Each pump discharges water over-
board via a thru-hull fitting.
MAINTENANCE:
The bilge pump is a completely sealed unit and main-
tenance is very simple, but it will require you to check
around the float switch for debris and gummy bilge
oil that could impede the bilge pump from working
properly. Check the bilge pump and hoses for wear;
clean and repair if neccessary.
