HOLDING TANK
Avoid environmental pollution! The black water tank is fitted with a deck outlet
pump using an international standard type connection. Using the pump, the
black water can be emptied to a permanent septic tanks ashore. These facilities
must always be used. In areas where there are no permanent septic tanks, the
septic crusher is used to evacuate the contents of the tank straight into the
water as follows:
Open the sealed sea valve. If possible empty the tank daily and always in
deep waters far from the shore. The location of the pump is indicated on the
construction drawing.
SPRING PREPARATION OF THE TOILET
1.
Lubricate the pump cylinder with Vaseline.
2.
Flush the system with fresh water.
3.
Connect the hoses and open both valves.
4.
Check the connections thoroughly for leaks.
WINTER LAY-UP
The shut-off valve must be closed after the evacuation. Do not allow
the tank to become full. This can lead to paper becoming compacted
in the bottom of the tank, mak- ing it more difficult to empty. See the
cleaning instructions in the chapter Winter lay-up.
Before the boat is laid-up for winter storage, the whole system must
be cleaned and flushed through while the boat is still in the water. The
whole system must be thoroughly drained of water when the boat is
lifted out of the water. This measure prevents frost damage, bacteria
growth and smells.
We do not recommend the use of antifreeze, since it is impossible to
guarantee that it reaches all parts of the system..
CAUTION!

5.4 HEATING SYSTEM
You can choose to equip your craft with a heating system as an optional extra.
The heater, heating unit and diesel tank are located in the fore cabin in the
bow of the craft (1). In addition, there are a different number of heating vents
available, depending on the craft’s standard of equipment. The locations of the
vents are shown with arrows in the picture below. The heater’s operation panel
(2) is located to the right of the cabin door. The inlet pipe for the tank is located
on the foredeck next to the tank.
Heater components may break if the wrong kind of fuel is used. For
more information, read the manufacturer’s manual.
Do not switch off the heater’s direct supply current before you have
made sure that the appliance has cooled down.
Appliances that burn fuel consume oxygen and discharge toxic combus
-
tion products into the boat. Good ventilation is essential when such an
appliance is in use. Open ventilation holes and make sure that they are
not blocked and that air flows freely through them.
Never leave the boat unattended when a heater or LPG cooker is in
use.
