Bilge Pump

• Your boat is equipped with

a bilge pump for pumping

water out of the bilge.

• The 185, 195 & 205 bilge

pumps are controlled by a

switch at the helm.

• On the 225 the bilge pump

is controlled by a float

switch (auto-float switch)

and a switch at the helm.

Bilge Pump Testing

• The bilge pump is vital to

the safety of your boat.

• Test the bilge pump often

to make sure it is working

properly.

To test each bilge pump:

1. Turn On the bilge pump switch at the helm.

2. Make sure that water in the bilge is pumped overboard.

• If there is water in the bilge and the pump motor is running, but not pumping, inspect the discharge hose for a kink

or collapsed area. If the discharge hose looks okay, check the bilge pump housing for clogging debris (see below).

Checking for clogging debris:

1. Remove the pump motor from the

housing:

a. Lift the tab while rotating the

fins counter-clockwise.

b. Lift out the pump motor.

c. Clear the housing of debris.

2. Reinstall the pump motor:

a. Make sure the “O” ring is prop-

erly seated.

b. Coat the “O” ring with a light

film of vegetable or mineral oil.

c. Align the cams on either side of

the pump motor with the slots on the housing.

d. Press the pump motor into the housing while twisting clockwise.

3. Check the reinstallation by trying to twist the fins counter-clockwise without lifting the tab; the pump motor

should stay in place.

Discharge of oil, oil waste or fuel into navigable waters is prohibited by law. Violators are sub-

ject to legal action by the local authorities.
