Skier's Choice Supra Instruction Manual page 46

Water Strainer
Each Gravity Ballast System also includes an in-line water
strainer before the manifold. This strainer will keep debris
out of the solenoid valve and should prevent the valve from
getting clogged up and forced open. The strainer cover should
be removed periodically and the filter
screen cleaned to prevent debris buildup
on the mesh screen. Be careful when
removing the cover not to lose the O-ring
used to seal the cover. Also, the strainer
should be removed and drained during
winterization.
To fill the ballast system, press the fill
switch. To empty, press the empty switch.
With the ballast full, the boat may porpoise
at speeds above 25 mph.
Empty ballast before trailering the boat. DO NOT trailer
boat with ballast full!

(3) Turning on all the pumps
at the same time.
Power loss between the Open condition, winding breaks,
module and the pump power removed between control
module and pump.

at control module is less than
10.5 VDC
Timer limit Programmed limit
Possible Cause Action
Ballast power wires not Check ballast power wires
connected to battery at battery
Ballast breaker is tripped Check 60 amp ballast breaker
at the battery

Charge battery and/or run boat engine while
filling ballast.
Control module has reached programmed or
maximum run time. Additional ballast can be
added (bumped) in 1 minute increments by
pressing FILL. This will add extra water to ballast
but will not effect program time.
Correction
Connect power wires to battery
Reset ballast breaker at battery
Turn power off to the system at the breaker
and then back on and retry
