. Remove the pump out connection from the deck
plate. Add 1 gallon of clean water to the holding
tank through the waste deck fitting using a dock-
side water hose.
Be sure the batteries in the boat are properly charged.
Operating the pressure pump from a battery with a
low charge will result in pump cycling. This could lead
to premature pump failure.

5.
Repeat steps 1 & 2 above to pump out the water
used in step 3 to flush the holding tank.
NOTICE
Failure to keep the livewell tank vent fitting
clean will cause excessive pressure buildup
within the tank during filling. This can cause
water tank damage.
Add waste holding tank treatment chemical avail-
able from the dockside pumping station operator
to the head. Flush at least twice.
Winter lay-up service procedures should include a
thorough draining of the livewell system. Disconnect
all accessible fittings. Blow out all lines. Be sure the
livewell tubs, aerator pump, and lines are completely
dry. Freezing water can cause severe damage to all
water system components.
Be careful when handling and storing treatment
chemicals. Not only are they toxic, but they will
also stain and damage surrounding surface.
It will be necessary to remove the top holding tank
of the portable head to fill with water. Refer to the
manufacturer’s literature included in the owner’s
packet regarding the use, care and maintenance
of the porta potti.

Be sure the battery(s) in the boat are properly
charged. Operating the pressure pump from a
battery with a low charge will result in pump cycling.
This could lead to premature pump failure.

LIVEWELL
An aft livewell is integrated into the aft platform of the
Fish & Ski models. An additional livewell is incorpo-
rated in the center of the bench seat base on certain
Fish & Ski models also. Both types of livewells come
equipped with an aerator pump which is operated
from a switch below the shift/throttle control. The
water is aerated as it is pumped into the tank. A hatch
is included for access and the tailpiece regulates the
water level. To drain, remove the tailpiece as shown
in Figure J-12.
The decomposition of waste produces a color-
less, odorless gas, methane, that is lighter than
air, combustible, and extremely lethal. Always
provide sufficient ventilation when effecting
repairs to the waste system and allow no odor
from the waste system to go unresolved.
A. Clean Vents and Screens
Periodically, inspect the water tank vents and thru-hull
vent fittings for any dirt, wax, etc. Carefully remove
any obstruction with a pipe cleaner or similar device.
Be sure not to puncture any screens. The stainless
steel vent cap is not removable.
