Auxiliary Equipment Operation
BILGE PUMP/FLOAT SWITCH
Your yacht features bilge pumps and fl oat switches in the
sump (bilge) and salon. They are operated through the
dash switches. There are separate switches marked forward
and aft bilge pumps.
In the “off ” position both switches are connected into the
automatic fl oat switch. In this “auto” position if the boat
takes on water, the bilge pumps will activate and pump
excess water overboard. The center switch icon lights up
when activated.
Periodically check the grates for debris and spray the units
down with water. Make sure a steady stream of water exits
the through hull fi tting indicating the entire output hose
system from the bilge pump itself is debris free.
