Aerator pumps can airlock two different ways:
1. At the motor housing: To correct this, make sure the outlet of the pump is oriented with the outlet up or between 12 o'clock and 2 o'clock.
2. In the water line: To correct this, you need to eliminate any high and low spots you have in the line running from your pump to your livewell. A steady incline is best.
When towing a skier, if the load gets too great the skier is forced to let go of the rope. When a item such as a tube is tied to the rope, the tube can dip under the water or contact something that can create too much force on the pylon, which could cause damage or injury.
