sive pressure. Make sure all air is purged
from the water heater and lines before acti-
vating the water heater breaker. Refer to the
water heater manual for additional informa-
tion.
Shore Water Connection
The shore water connection allows the direct
connection of the water system to a shore
side water supply. This provides the system
with a constant supply of fresh water and
minimizes the pressure pump operation. A
female inlet fitting is mounted on the port
side splash well wall.
To use shore water, connect a hose from the
shore water faucet to the shore water fitting
on the boat, then turn on the shore water.
The pressure pump will not run and the
water in water tank of the boat will not be
used. Also, the water tank will not be filled by
connecting to shore water.
5.2 Raw Water Wash-down
The raw water wash down system pump is
supplied by hoses connected to a ball valve
and a thru-hull fitting located in the bilge.
Operation
Make sure the ball valve is open before
attempting to operate the raw water wash
down system. The pump is activated by the
wash down switch located on the helm.
When activated, the pressure switch will
automatically control the pump. As pressure
builds in the wash down hose, the pump will
shut off. When the wash down hose is in use
and the pressure drops, the pump will turn
on. Turn the switch off when the wash down
is not in use. The raw water wash down is
equipped with a screen on the intake side of
the pump, located in the aft bilge; check it
frequently and clean as necessary.
Priming the System
Open the ball valve and hose connector, and
activate the pressure pump. Run the pump
until all air is purged from the system. Close
the thru-hull ball valve before the boat is
hauled from the water to eliminate an air
lock in the system. It may be necessary to
re-prime the raw water system if the system
is not used for an extended period.
5.3 Livewell
Seawater is provided to the live well by a 12-
volt circulating pump. This pump is designed
to carry a constant flow of water to the live
well. The pump is activated by the live well
switch on the helm. An overflow built into the
live well automatically controls live well
water level. Always turn the live well pump
off at the switch panel when not in use.
To fill the live well, insert the plug in the drain
fitting at the bottom of the live well. Make
sure the ball valve at the intake thru-hull fit-
ting is open and turn on the live well pump.
When the water level reaches the overflow, it
will begin to circulate.
To drain, turn off pump and remove plug.
When the live well has drained, use the
washdown hose to flush the live well and
drain debris.
NOTICE
DO NOT turn on water heater until it is
filled and primed; damage to the
heater will result.
NOTICE
DO NOT change or modify the shore
water inlet connector without contact-
ing Pursuit Customer Relations or
your dealer. Use of the wrong type or
a modification can damage the fresh
water system.
NOTICE
DO NOT operate high-pressure pump
dry, damage to pump will result. Turn
the raw water pump switch "OFF"
when leaving the boat unattended.
