Attaching the Sewer Hose:
• Turn the drain end cap counterclockwise and remove it from the drain
pipe.
• Unscrew the hose access deck plate from the bottom of the water service
compartment. Feed the adapter end of the drain hose up through the
hole and install the hose adapter onto the drain pipe.
• Rotate the drain pipe downward for maximum flow.
• Straighten and secure hose to avoid recoil. Attach the end of the hose
to the sewer connection at the dump station.
NOTE: Ensure sewer hose connections and hose clamps are
secure before use.
The grey water holding tank valve (small valve) remains open when connected
to the sewer hook-up. The black water holding tank valve (large valve)
remains closed at all times except when dumping the sewage tank. When
preparing to dump the black water holding tank, first close the grey water tank
valve. Allow the grey water tank fluid to accumulate until the tank is at least
half full or fill by running cold water through the sink and shower drains. Do
not overfill the grey water holding tank.
To aid in the removal of solids, it is best to dump the black tank when it is
at least 50% full. If it is necessary to dump the black tank when the level is
below 50%, add water by using the sewage tank flush system until a 50% ratio
is achieved.
• With the black valve closed use the sewage tank flush system to
increase the holding tank level.
• Use the monitor panel to prevent the tank from being overfilled when
adding water using the sewage tank flush system. Closely watch the
tank level by observing the appropriate tank gauge.
• The sewage tank flush system should never be operated while unattend-
ed.
Dumping the Waste Holding Tanks:
• With the grey water valve closed, open the black water valve to drain
the tank.
• Flush the sewage tank. Connect a separate non-potable water supply
hose with pressure regulator to the sewage tank flush connection on
the water service panel. For sanitary reasons, be sure not use the
potable city water hose for this procedure. The large gate valve
remains open throughout the flushing cycle. Turn the water on and
flush the black water system for approximately two minutes. Ensure
water is flowing freely through the sewer hose.
• When finished flushing the system, turn the water off and close the
black water valve.
