OVERBOARD DISCHARGE PUMP (MAC-
ERATOR) TYPICAL
Th e overboard discharge pump (macerator)) can be used
to pump out the holding tank in international waters.
When the monitor panel key is energized to the full start
position, the macerator engages to pump the tank waste
overboard. Again, make sure it is legal to pump the waste
overboard before you start the operation. Also, open the
waste seacock located in the sump. Th
e pump can be
disconnected from the 2 union fi ttings that hold it for
maintenance purposes.
Th e pump is rated for 40 minutes continuous operation.
Do not fl ush paper or feminine hygiene products into the
waste system. Keep toilet tissue usage to a minimum. Do
not use bleach or toilet cleaners in the waste system. Use
only maine approved products. Rinse and fl ush the hold-
ing tank aft er each pump out. Th is will dilute any residual
waste, and help prevent blockage and reduce odors.
