5. Drain the system.
6. Flush the system thoroughly with fresh water.
7. Fill the system with fresh water.
To remove excessive chlorine taste or odor which might
remain in the system, prepare a solution of one quart
vinegar to five gallons water and allow this solution to
agitate in the tank for several days during boating. Then
drain tank and refill with fresh water.
The cockpit sinks are equipped with traps, and the wa-
ter will drain slowly. If the system is not operating prop-
erly, have it checked by your authorized Four Winns
dealer.

FRESH WATER SYSTEMS
A. Cockpit Galley or Sink
The cockpit sink is available as an option on the 240
Horizon and a cabin sink is available as an option on
the 245 Sundowner. The water pump for the cockpit
sink is located on the port side near the stern on your
Four Winns boat and will draw water when the switch is
operated. The switch is located next to the faucet. After
the tank has been filled, operate the pump switch until
water comes out of the faucet.
NOTICE
If the line is routed improperly, kinked or is dislo-
cated, the water pump may not operate prop-
erly. Inspect and correct the hose routing (if
necessary). If a problem still exists, contact your
Four Winns dealer for assistance.
After all the air has been purged from the system and a
steady flow of water is coming from the faucet, turn off
the pump.
NOTICE
DO NOT operate the pump with an empty tank.
Damage to the water pump may result. Be sure
the pump switch is off when not in use.

B. Transom Washdown
The transom washdown option is available on the 240
Horizon and on all Sundowner models. The washdown
unit is located on the port side of the transom. The wa-
ter supply system can be used for showering or
washdown purposes at the transom. See Figure G1.
Transom Washdown Location
Figure G1: Transom Washdown
The fresh water tank has a seven gallon capacity and is
located in the rear engine compartment on the port side
on Horizon and Sundowner models. The water fill deck
plate for Horizons and Sundowners is located on the
port side, near the stern of the boat. The fresh water
deck fills are clearly mark “WATER”.
A separate toggle switch to operate the pump is located
at the transom and is wired directly to the battery. An in-
line fuse is included to protect the water pump. The
pump is located in the rear engine compartment on the
port side for most models.
Models equipped with the transom washdown option will
use the same fresh water pump used for the cockpit
sink. With the pump switch “ON”, push the spray nozzle
button to purge any air that may be in the system. When
a steady flow of water is coming from the washdown
nozzle, release the spray nozzle. As the pressure builds,
the pump will automatically shut off at 35 psi.
