11.2 Portable Marine Head
The portable head is standard equipment. The
system is made up of two major components,
an upper tank and a lower tank. The upper tank
contains the fresh water supply, a bellows pump,
a seat and the lid. The bottom tank contains
the flush valve, waste holding tank, a chemical
storage compartment and the drain nozzle. The
components are secured together by a clamping
mechanism when the portable head is ready for
use.
In some areas the law requires that portable heads
be equipped with an optional permanent deck
mounted pump out system to evacuate the waste
with a dockside pump. Boats with a portable head
pump out will be equipped with a deck fitting
marked “WASTE” located on the deck. Since this
system is required to be permanent, the bottom
waste tank cannot be removed and the only way
to evacuate the system is by a dockside pump.
To use the portable head, add the recommended
amount of holding tank deodorant to the waste
tank and fill the fresh water tank. To flush after
use, pull the waste valve handle straight out, then
press the flushing bellows one or more times to
rinse. To close and seal the waste holding tank,
simply push the valve handle all the way in.
Monitor the level in the waste tank and empty as
necessary.
Portable Toilet Maintenance
To keep your portable head operating properly it
must be emptied and properly cleaned periodically.
Please refer to the manufacturer owner’s manual
for detailed instructions on the proper operation
of your portable head.
NOTICE:
In some areas the law requires a waste pump
out system on portable heads. If your boat
is equipped with the waste pump out, make
sure you know the laws for the areas in
which you boat before modifying or remov-
ing the pump out system.
The portable head must be properly winter-
ized before winter lay-up or for cold weather
use. Please refer to the manufacturer own-
er’s manual for winterizing and cold weather
instructions
