Empty the holding tank at every opportunity.
Winterizing The Marine Head
1. Shut Off the pickup seacock and pump the head until the bowl is dry.
2. Remove the drain plug in the base and pump again to remove all of the water.
•
Do not fill the bowl with anti-freeze.
•
Close the pickup seacock while the boat is underway or whenever the boat is left moored in the water.
Operating the manual flush marine head:
1. Open the head’s seawater pickup valve (seacock).
2. Before using the head, pump enough water into the bowl to wet the sides.
3. After use, pump until the bowl is thoroughly cleaned. Continue pumping a few more times to clean the lines.
4. If excess waste causes the water to rise in the bowl, stop pumping until the water recedes.
