SYSTEM OPERATIONS-32
This system operates independently of
the Fresh Water Pump System and simply
depends on its connection to a suitable
garden-type water hose for its supply of
fresh water. When the water supply is con-
nected to the water inlet and turned ON,
the system is automatically pressurized
without the need for the fresh water pump.
The water entering this system will not fi ll
the fresh water tank; a check valve, locat-
ed in the pressure line of the fresh water
pump prevents the water from entering the
fresh water tank. Be sure to turn OFF the
fresh water pump at the DC Panel when
connected to the shore water supply.
Connect this system ONLY to a potable
water system that is safe for drinking.
DO NOT use water that may be of ques-
tionable quality as serious illness or
death may occur.
When you are connecting your system
to a dockside water supply, be certain to
examine all connections and water lines
for any leaks. If any leaks are noted, turn
OFF the water supply immediately and
make the necessary repairs before you
again turn ON the water supply. Remove
any trapped air from the water system by
opening all faucets until the air is exhaust-
ed and there is a steady fl ow of water.
Close the faucets after the air is removed.
Fresh Water Filter:
The water pumped from the fresh water
tank fl ows through a fi lter located on the
suction side of the fresh water pump. Its
purpose is to remove impurities that may
be present in the fresh water system prior
to its consumption. The screen at the fi lter
is easily removed and should be cleaned
on a regular basis.
The photo below shows the Filter and the
Pump.
Dockside Water Supply
The other source for water is the Dock-
side Water Supply. This water source is
for when you are docked and have potable
water as a source at the dock. Your 43SB
is equipped with a dockside water inlet
located in the transom storage compart-
ment. The photo below shows the Fresh
Water Inlet.
