Marine Sanitation Device (MSD)
Improper winterizing can cause your MSD to fail. In salt
water environments, the toilet bowl should be filled with
fresh water and allowed to stand for several days. This will
ensure that any accumulated salt has sufficient time to dis-
solve. Consult the manufacturer's instruction manual for
detailed winterization procedures.
Bilge Pump
The bilge pump on your boat must be drained to prevent
damage if it is exposed to freezing temperatures. Pump as
much water as possible out of the bilge. Then, turn on the
pump for a few seconds to remove water from the pump.
NOTE: Running the pump dry for an extended period
of time will damage the pump. Run pump only as long
as necessary.
