Bilge Pump - Pro-Line Boats 29 Super Sport Owner's Manual

Baitwell pump
is shown with
the seacock
open.
To turn the baitwell pump off, press the baitwell switch to the aft position. You should always turn the baitwell
switch off at the helm if the pump is not going to be used soon.
If you find it necessary to run the baitwell pump while you are underway, you may be forcing more water than
necessary up through the seacock. In this instance, adjust the seacock lever to a 45-degree angle so that the
seacock is only halfway open. The seacock lever may require additional adjustments to find a setting that works
best for you. Even when the baitwell pump is turned off, if the seacock is open, the baitwell tub will continue to fill
with water while you are underway.

Bilge Pump

The boat is equipped with an 1100 gph bilge pump. This pump is installed as
far aft as possible in the bilge.
To check the operation of the bilge pump, first turn the bilge pump on at the
instrument panel by pressing the bilge pump switch to the on or forward
position. When the bilge pump switch is in the on position, the switch light
should be illuminated. To check and see if the bilge pump is operating, open
the hatch over the bilge pump and listen to hear the bilge pump running.
Second, turn the bilge pump off at the instrument panel and check the bilge pump float switch. The pump is
equipped with an automatic float switch (white box) that is mounted next to the bilge pump. As long as your boat
is equipped with an operable battery, the pump will operate independently when water is present in the area. The
float switch is equipped with two plastic knobs located on either side of the switch. Turn either one of the knobs to
raise the float to engage the bilge pump. If the pump comes on, the automatic float is operating properly. It is
recommended that you check the operation of each automatic float switch monthly.
If for some reason the indicator light on your bilge pump switch comes on, check your bilge for water. It is not
uncommon for rain water or water from washing your boat to accumulate in the bilge. Standing water will activate
the automatic float that is connected to the bilge pump.
If you notice your pump running frequently during your day on the water, you should check the thru hull fittings,
hose connections, etc. for any possible leaks.
The hose on the
lower port feeds
raw water to the
washdown pump.
Baitwell pump
aft bilge area.
To operate the baitwell pump, locate the baitwell switch on the
console and press the switch to the forward position to turn on the
pump. When the baitwell pump is operating, go to the baitwell tub
and visually check to see if water is pumping into the tub through
the aerator fitting. This will ensure that the baitwell pump is
working properly.
The 45-gallon capacity baitwell tub is located below the transom
seat. It comes equipped with an aerator head, 2 overflow drains
that allow circulation to keep bait alive, a plug for the drain and a
baitwell light.
