B i l g e P u m p s
Your boat is equipped with two impeller-type bilge pumps.
The bilge pumps are automatically controlled by float
switches (see "Autofloat Switches" on the next page). The
bilge pumps can also be controlled by switches on the dash.
Bilge Pump Testing
Bilge pumps should be tested often to verify that they are
working properly. To manually test a bilge pump, activate the
dash-mounted switch and verify that bilge water is pumped
overboard. If bilge water is present and the pump motor is
running, but not pumping, inspect the discharge hose for a
kink or collapsed area. If no problems are found, check the bilge pump housing for clogging debris as follows:
Bilge Pump Cleaning:
1. Remove the power cartridge:
a. Lift the tab while rotating the fins counterclockwise.
b. Lift out the power cartridge.
c. Clear the outer housing of debris.
2. Reinstall the power cartridge:
a. Make sure the “O” ring is properly seated.
b. Coat the “O” ring with a light film of vegetable or mineral oil.
c. Align the two cams on either side of the power cartridge with
the two slots on the outer housing and press the power car-
tridge into the housing while twisting clockwise.
d. To ensure proper reinstallation of the power cartridge, attempt
to twist the fins counterclockwise without lifting the tab: The
cartridge should stay in place.
Autofloat Switches
Automatic bilge pumps use electromagnetic float (autofloat)
switches to automatically activate the pump whenever water rises
above a preset level in the bilge. One autofloat switch is mounted
next to the bilge pump it activates, and is wired directly to the bat-
tery so it will normally function even when the boat is completely shut down and left unattended.
Autofloat switches should be tested often for proper operation as follows:
Float Switch Test:
1. Push the float switch test button up to activate
the bilge pump.
If the pump does not turn on, check the inline fuse.
If the fuse is good but the switch doesn’t work, it
may indicate a bad switch or possibly a low battery.
2. Push the test button all the way down to return
the float switch back into the auto mode.
