Lighting Systems; Navigation Lights - Pro-Line Boats 17 Sport 2006 Owner's Manual

The bilge pump is wired automatic to the battery and has a manual override located at the
switch panel on the console. The automatic float switch is wired directly to the battery terminal
through a breaker or inline fuse. The circuit breaker is located at the helm next to the manual
switch. Depressing the bilge pump switch to the up or forward position activates the bilge pump.
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.
Keep the bilge area clean and free from debris that could clog ports or inhibit float movement.
Also, keep the battery (starboard) that provides power to the bilge pump charged. If the battery
is not charged and flooding occurs, the boat could swamp causing damage and possible loss of
life or property.
4 Baitwell Pump - The baitwell pump is located in the bilge area and is plumbed to a seacock (ball
valve). This pump is also used for the raw water washdown. See the Sea Water section of this
manual for instructions on using the raw water washdown fitting.
For the pump to operate properly you need to make sure the seacock is in the open position.
The seacock is wide open when the yellow seacock lever is vertical. When the yellow seacock
lever is horizontal, the seacock is closed.
The underside of the seacock thru-hull is equipped with a scoop to allow the water to be picked
up even when the boat is on plane. When the boat is not in the water or the baitwell pump is not
going to be used for an extended period of time, the seacock valve should be in the closed
position.
To activate the pump, depress the switch to the up or forward position. To turn the pump off
after the baitwell tub is full, depress switch to the down or aft position.
