in enclosed lakes and reservoirs or in rivers not capable of interstate navigation. States may apply to the EPA to
have certain other waters declared "no discharge zones" if discharge of treated sewage would be harmful. In
short, boats with installed toilets must have an operable Coast Guard approved Marine Sanitation Device (MSD)
designed to either hold sewage for pump out ashore or for discharge in the ocean beyond the three mile limit, or
to treat the sewage to Federal standards prior to discharge.
All boats built since 1977 with installed toilets must have an operable approved type I, II or III MSD. Since 1980,
all boats (including those built before 1977) with installed toilets must have an operable MSD. Both the U.S.
Coast Guard and the Natural Resources Police can enforce MSD requirements.
Check with your local authorities, Coast Guard, local marina or your dealer for the rules and/or laws that may
apply specifically in your area.
Console with Enclosed Head (Porta-Potti)
This porta-potti comes equipped with a 5.0-gallon holding tank. To operate the porta-potti system:
•
Set the portable toilet on its front side so the cap on the holding tank is in a vertical position.
Remove the cap and add SeaLand brand holding tank deodorant following the instructions on the
deodorant container. Replace the cap firmly.
•
Before using: Set the portable toilet in the upright position and remove the cap located on the
right rear side of the fresh water tank. Fill with fresh water just below the neck of the fresh water
inlet. Depress the bellows pump to add water to the bowl.
•
After using: To flush, open slide valve by pulling out the handle and press the bellows pump one
or more times. After flushing, close slide valve by pushing handle.
•
Caution: Never add holding tank deodorant to the waste holding tank by pouring directly into the
toilet bowl.
Before operating the porta-potti head system, refer to the manual in your owner's packet supplied by the porta-
potti manufacturer for specific operating instructions.
Porta-Potti with Dockside Discharge (Optional)
This head system includes the same porta-potti as the one described above but comes with a 5.0-gallon holding
tank. Be sure to follow the same operating instructions as described above.
To utilize the dockside discharge feature, first locate the waste outlet. It is a stainless steel fitting, labeled waste
and it is located amidships on the port gunwale. Twist the waste outlet cap to open the fitting and insert the hose
provided by the marina into the waste outlet to connect to your marina’s dockside service facilities. Follow the
instructions provided by the marina to operate their equipment.
Warning: Waste in the holding tank can form methane, an explosive gas. Use suitable
precautions when any maintenance is done to the sanitary system.
Before operating the porta-potti head system, refer to the manual in your owner's packet supplied by the porta-
potti manufacturer for specific operating instructions.
Electric Head with Macerator and Holding Tank (Optional)
If you have selected the electric head system, your boat is
equipped to offer you the option of using overboard or dockside
discharge to pump out the waste tank. This push button operating
electric head system comes equipped with a 7-gallon holding tank,
macerator pump, diverter valve (“Y” valve) and switch panel, and
uses sea water for flushing.
The flush control button and switch panel are installed on the aft
wall of the head area. The flush control button operates the head,
allowing you to flush the waste. The switch panel has switches for
the head and the head macerator pump. To flush the toilet, first,
move the head switch to the on position. Then press the round
button labeled “Press to Flush”. This action empties the head
waste into the holding tank.
