CONGRATULATIONS The Ranger Tug family has a passion for boating. We are committed to continuous process improvement in all areas that affect our customer’s satisfaction with our products and providing great customer service.
SAFETY Safety is always a priority at Ranger Tugs. Please read all manuals to ensure that equipment is used in a safe manner. We highly recommend attendance in a Coast Guard approved boating safety course. Such courses are available from the Coast Guard directly or from boating organizations. Owners should have annual inspections to ensure that Prop all safety equipment is current. 65 Boat Owner’s Manual Image
MAXIMUM CAPACITIES Operating, servicing and maintaining a recreational marine vessel can expose you to chemicals including engine exhaust, carbon monoxide, phthalates, and lead, which are known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. To minimize exposure, avoid breathing exhaust, service your vessel in a well-ventilated area and wear gloves or wash your hands frequently when servicing this vessel. For more information go to www.P65warnings.ca.gov/marine.
Notes on use of the above: 27 CCR § 25607.18 § 25607.18. Recreational Vessel Exposure Warnings 3 Method of Transmission. [Operative August 30, 2018] (a) A warning for exposures that occur during the operation

Disinfecting The Fresh Water System
APPENDIX - POTABLE WATER SYSTEMS
The information contained in this appendix provides supplementary data about disinfecting a potable water system. A SUGGESTED METHOD OF DISINFECTION Perform the following steps in the order indicated: a. Flush entire system thoroughly by allowing potable water to flow through it; b. Drain system completely; c. Fill entire system with a chlorine solution having a strength of at least 100 parts per million, and allow to stand for one (1) hour. Shorter periods will require greater concentrations of chlorine solution. See Table I d. Drain chlorine solution from entire system; e. Flush entire system thoroughly with potable water; f. Fill system with potable water. Table I shows how much disinfecting agent is required to make up various quantities of 100 parts per million chlorine solution. TABLE I – CHLORINE CONCENTRATIONS Amount of chlorine compound required for 100 ppm solution Solution (Gallons)
Chlorinated Lime 25% (ounces)
High Test Calcium Hypochlorite 70% (ounces)
Liquid Sodium Hypochlorite 1% (quarts)

BILGE PUMP SYSTEM
STE
12V 1100GPH
The bilge pumps operate automatically by checking for water every 2.5 minutes even with battery switches and breakers in the OFF position. However, the bilge pumps will run continuously once their switches are placed in the on position. Monitor the outflow accordingly. Do not run when dry. • Manual switches are located at the helm for the forward and center pumps. • The aft bilge pump switch is located in the aft section of the cockpit.

High Water Alarm: Triggered = Red light/audible alarm Off = Normal operation. The switch should remain in the down “armed position” while cruising. Middle position mutes the alarm and all the way up is a momentary “alarm test”. The bilge pumps operate automatically with electronic float switches regardless of battery switch position. However, the aft, forward and pod pumps will run continuously once their switches are placed in the on position. Monitor the outflow accordingly. Do not run when dry.
