Water Discharge - Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 40 User Manual

WATER DISCHARGE

Waste water from the sink, wash basins and the closets is discharged by sea chests, fitted
with quarter turn valves (when the valve handle is perpendicular with the pipe, the valve
is closed, and open when along the pipe centreline).
All floors include water courses (limber holes). ( A waterproof carter under the engine
receive the possible oil leaks.)
A main sump located above the ballast collects the water from the floor and is drained
by means of an electric pump or the manual pump in the cockpit.
Check the valves and sea cocks for water tightness and operation regulary.
Shut the valves when the system is not in use.
Check the clamps and hose pipe couplings and seals for condition.
Ensure regularly that the bilge and strum-boxes are perfectly clean.
If one pump should be running while all water supplies are shut,
Check the water system and eliminate the breakdown.
RECOMMENDATION / MAINTENANCE:
switch the power off immediately.
