Livewell
Your Manitou may be equipped with a livewell. A livewell is a tank used
to keep bait and harvested fish alive. The livewell is aerated by the fresh
water that is pumped into the tank.
You can turn the livewell pump on and off manually by using the
designated accessory switch in the helm area. When this switch is in the
On position, the pump runs continuously.
It is important to be aware of water and air temperatures to determine
when and how often you should aerate the livewell. The pump draws
water from below the waterline of the boat and pumps it into the livewell
tank through the aerator head. The aerator head can be adjusted to
control the volume of water flowing into the livewell tank. Oxygen
content increases as incoming water hits the surface of the water already
in the livewell tank. This added oxygen helps keep fish in the livewell
alive.
Note: The pump works best when the boat is at rest or moving very
slowly. At faster speeds, the pump is unable to draw water.
The stand pipe overflow tube keeps your livewell tank from overflowing
with water. It sets the maximum water level allowed in the tank. As
water enters and fills up the tank, the stand pipe allows the overflow to
drain out below the deck of the boat. Stand pipes can be cut down if
lower water levels are desired. For additional information, consult your
Manitou dealer.
