Add
an SSC to the top of any seacock to allow instant emergency bilge
pumping, or to simplify winterization and cooling system flushing.
IN AN EMERGENCY: While the connected engine is running, close
the seacock and remove the quick release plug. Excess bilge water
will be pumped overboard by the engine raw water pump. Add GROCO Bilge
Strainer to pump out remote bilge locations. See Illustration
FOR WINTERIZATION: Close the seacock, remove the quick release
plug and insert the service adaptor (included). Anti-freeze can be
pumped into the cooling system.
FOR SYSTEM FLUSHING: Close the seacock and insert the service
adaptor. Dockside water can be used to flush the cooling system with
the engine running at idle speed. See Illustration.
