tank waste water can help rinse any solids or
debris from the dump outlet and sewer hose.
Some termination valves may be hard to
access and use because they are low to the
ground and the direction of opening can be
awkward.
5. Open the black tank dump valve (close
the dump valve when the black water
holding tank is emptied).
6. Open the grey tank dump valve (close the
dump valve when the grey holding tank is
emptied).
7. Remove and clean the sewer hose.
For sanitary purposes, never use your
fresh water hose to wash your sewer hose
or related attachments.
8. When not in use, store the sewer hose in
the sewer hose holder and place any
attachments in a storage container (plastic
box or plastic bag). Clean or replace this
storage container often.

The black tank rinse may also be referred to
as a “no fuss flush.” The fresh water from the
garden hose goes directly into the black water
holding tank where there is a “sprayer”
connection located. This allows you to clean
the black water holding tank by removing
debris and preventing accumulation. There is
a check valve incorporated in the plumbing
lines to prevent back flow. Flush the black
water tank each time the black water holding
tank is dumped or as needed:
1. Dump the black water tank and leave the
black tank drain valve open.
2. Connect a garden hose from the water
supply source to the “black tank rinse.”
3. With the water source turned ON, flush
the black water holding tank until the
water running out of the black tank drain
valve is clear (not discolored or cloudy).
4. Disconnect the garden hose and close the
“black tank drain” valve.
5. Fasten the sewer hose housing dust cap
back on the “black tank rinse.”
The black tank drain valve must be OPEN
any time there is a hose (water supply)
connected to the black tank rinse.
Do not leave any hose (water supply)
connected to the black tank rinse when it is
not in use.
For sanitary purposes, do not use the
same hose to fill your fresh (potable) water
tank that is used for the black tank rinse.
