| Thought I would share a new technique I tried today to winterize my live & bait well. I love my Ranger, but the manuals stink.
I was able to pump Marine anti-freeze into the systems. I used attachment in photo direct to top of the bottle of anti-freeze bottle. The hose was slightly too small for the intake ports, so I wrapped with electrical tape, slightly increasing the diameter.
The protective screens simply screw on/off. The port hole is for the rear live well. The starboard hole is for the front bait well.
First I ran it in AUTO, tipped up the bottle, and it sucked it in very fast. Next I ran the system in RECIRC. Finally, I ran it for a while in EMPTY, just until some of the anti-freeze started to be ejected out. The anti-freeze (and I hope all remaining water in the system) ran back into the bottle.
No mess and worked like a champ.
Photos attached for reference.
