RAW WATER SYSTEM
8.1 General
(196MFS/197BF/217BF)
A livewell supplied by a centrifugal raw water
pump is standard equipment on the 196MFS and
an available option on the 197BF and 217BF. The
livewell water pump is mounted to a seacock on a
thru-hull fitting located in the stern bilge. Always
make sure the seacock valve is open before
attempting to operate the raw water system.
Priming the System
Make sure the seacock valve is open and the
Livewell switch is on. Run the livewell pump until
all of the air is purged from the system, then turn
the pump off.
The intake for the livewell centrifugal pump is
equipped with a seacock valve. If the pump runs
but will not prime make sure the valve is open. If
the pump still won’t prime, it may be air locked.
Make sure the valve is open and run the boat at
or above 15 M.P.H. The water pressure from the
thru-hull fitting will force the trapped air through
the pump and allow it to prime. If this procedure
doesn’t work, contact your Monterey dealer.
Closing the seacock valve before the boat is hauled
from the water will help to eliminate air locks in
raw water systems. The valve should also be
closed whenever you leave the boat unattended.
Notice:
It may be necessary to reprime the raw wa-
ter system if it is not used for an extended
period and at the time of launching.
8.2 Livewell Operation
Seawater is provided to the livewell by a 12 volt
centrifugal pump. This pump is designed to carry
a constant flow of water to the livewell. The pump
does not have a pressure sensor and is activated
by the Livewell switch in the helm switch panel
or a separate switch panel in the cockpit. There
is also a light in the livewell on 196MFS models
that is activated by the Livewell switch.
An overflow fitting in the side of the livewell au
-
tomatically controls the water level. Always turn
the pump off at the switch panel when the livewell
is not in use.
To fill the livewell, insert the plug into the drain
fitting at the bottom of the livewell. Make sure the
seacock valve at the pump is open. Then activate
the livewell pump. When the water level reaches
the overflow, it will begin to circulate.
To drain the livewell, turn off the livewell pump and
remove the plug from the drain fitting. When the
livewell has completely drained, use a hose and
fresh water to flush the livewell and drain of debris.
The livewell seacock valve on 196MFS models
should be closed whenever the livewell is not in
use. This will prevent water from entering the
livewell while the boat is cruising.
