Note: The round filter attached to the side of the washdown pump should be removed
and cleaned often with running water.
To operate the baitwell system: Locate the baitwell switch on the console and press the switch to the
forward position to turn on the pump. When the baitwell pump is operating, go to the baitwell tub, open
the baitwell lid and visually check to see if water is pumping into the tub through the aerator fitting. If
water is not entering the baitwell tub, the aerator fitting may not be open.
See the photos below to make sure that the lever on the aerator fitting is in the open position. To turn the
baitwell pump off, press the baitwell switch to the aft position. You should always turn the baitwell switch
off at the helm if the pump is not going to be used soon
.
If you find it necessary to run the baitwell pump while you are underway, you may be forcing more water
than necessary up through the seacock. In this instance, adjust the seacock lever to a 45
o
angle so that
the seacock is only halfway open. The seacock lever may require additional adjustments to find a setting
that works best for you.
Even when the baitwell pump is turned off, if the seacock is open,
the baitwell tub will continue to fill with water while you are
underway.
The 25-gallon baitwell tub is located below the seat cushion that is
installed aft of the leaning post helm seat. If you have selected the
optional helm seat with baitwell tub, the optional tub also has a 25-
gallon capacity. Both baitwell tubs come equipped with a baitwell
light, an aerator head and a standpipe.
To operate the washdown system: Locate the baitwell switch on the console and press the switch to the
forward position to turn on the baitwell/washdown pump. Then, locate the black washdown fitting at
starboard side of the motor well. Twist the cap off the fitting and attach a standard garden hose to the
fitting. The small lever on the washdown fitting needs to be in the open position, as shown in the photo
below, to allow water to flow through the fitting.
