Section 8: Plumbing System
Macerator Pump System
Your motor home is equipped with a macerator pump system used to discharge waste from
the gray and black waste tank. The system has a 1-1/2-inch diameter flexible hose that runs
from the pump and attaches to a separate compartment on the exterior of the motor home.
Not all models are equipped with an external storage compartment. The system when pow-
ered on can discharge waste (uphill if necessary) up to a distance of 150 feet.
Open the hose compartment and pull out the 1-1/2 inch flex
-
ible hose with the attached dump connector. The dump con-
nector includes two connections: a small removable cap for
attaching a 3/4 inch garden hose, or a larger 3-inch removable
cap which allows it to be attached to the sewer outlet at the
dump station.
Using the macerator system
1. To make drainage easier, level the motor home.
2. Attach the dump connector to the 3-inch sewer outlet at
the dump station, or to a 3/4-inch garden hose and run
the hose to a dumping location.
3. Empty the tanks one at a time. Empty the black tank
first followed by the gray tank so waste water from the
gray tank will help rinse solids or debris from the dump
connector and flex hose.
Electric system
: To open the black or grey tank
drain valve, press the corresponding tank drain
(rocker) switch. To close the valve, press the
switch again.
Manual system:
To open the black or grey tank drain valve, pull the correspond-
ing T-handle out. Close the tank drain by pushing in the T-handle in.
4. Turn the Macerator power switch ON at the utility center panel and the macerator pump
will begin sending waste through the dump hose.
Make sure the sewer hose is con-
nected before turning the macerator on
.
5. When the tank is empty, turn the macerator power switch OFF. Close the black tank
drain valve.
6. Select the gray drain valve.
7. Turn the Macerator Power Switch ON.
Before operating the macerator pump, make sure the external dump hose is
properly attached at the motor home and at the dump station. The hose is
under pressure and therefore waste is discharged under pressure.
Failure to
follow instructions can lead to possible injury or property damage. The
use of this system for anything other than intended will void the warranty.
Water can accumulate in the flexible hose and dump connector of the macera
-
tor system. When winterizing the RV, antifreeze must be added to the macera-
tor system. Refer to the Winterizing section.
