Fleetwood Bounder - Water Pump; Water Filter

The on-board fresh water system is pressurized by a self-
priming, 12-volt DC pump. The pump operates automatically
when the pump power switch is
ON and a faucet is opened.
When the faucets are closed, the pump shuts off. At free
flow, the pump draws approximately 7 to
7'h amps, and can
run dry for extended periods without damage. A
20-amp fuse
at the converter panel protects the pump circuit.
See
Electrical Systems chapter.
Turn the pump master switch
ON to pressurize the system.
When a faucet is opened after the initial filling
of the tank,
the water may sputter for a few seconds. This is normal and
is not cause for concern. The water flow will become steady
when all air is bled from the water lines.
Dirt, mineral scale, and organic matter are filtered out
of the
fresh water system by an in-line water filter on the inlet side
of the water pump. If you suspect a clogged filter, it is easily
removed and cleaned.
Inspect the filter after using the first full tank
of water, clean
it, and inspect once a month thereafter.
1. Loosen the clamp at the inlet end of the filter.
2. Pull the water line off the filter.
3. Unscrew the filter from the water pump.
4. Turn each end of the filter and pull apart.
5. Flush out and clean screen.
6. Reverse procedure to install.
7. Operate the water pump and check for leaks.
