DC 235
Portable Toilet
The toilet is standard equipment on the
DC235. 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 and a waste holding tank.
To use the toilet, add the recommended
amount of holding tank deodorant to the
waste tank and fill the water supply. 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.
To keep your toilet operating properly it must
be emptied and properly cleaned periodi-
cally.
Marine Head System (DC 265)
This system is provided as standard equip-
ment. The water for flushing water is sup-
plied by a thru-hull fitting, located in the
forward storage compartment. Before using,
open the inlet valve on the head and pump
to wet the inside of the bowl. After use, close
the valve and pump to discharge the waste
to the holding tank. An electric head is
optional. The electric head is flushed by
using the switch, mounted next to the head.
Holding Tank and Macerator Discharge
Pump
Waste is pumped into the holding tank
where it remains until it is pumped out at a
waste dumping station or the overboard
macerator discharge system.
The holding tank is under the deck, in the
forward storage compartment. When the
tank is full it must either be pumped out by
an approved waste dumping station through
the waste deck fitting or be pumped over-
board with the macerator discharge pump,
following the proper overboard dumping reg-
ulations.when legal to do so.
To operate the macerator discharge pump,
open the discharge ball valve, located in the
forward storage compartment. Then activate
the macerator switch, located on the switch
panel in the head. When the tank is emptied,
release the switch.
Maintenance
Clean and inspect the head for leaks regu-
larly. Periodically add chemical to the head
to help control odor and to chemically break
down the waste. Refer to the head owner’s
manual for additional operating and mainte-
nance information.
!
NOTICE
DO NOT operate the macerator dry;
damage to the pump can occur.
In some waters it is illegal to dis-
charge waste overboard. Remove the
seacock handle or use another
method to prevent accidental dis-
charge.
