PERATION
Waste from the head is directed into the holding tank
located in the bilge. The holding tank fluid level indicator
is located on the 12 volt DC distribution panel which
indicates “3/4 FULL,” “FULL” and “DO NOT FLUSH.” When
the “FULL” light is on, the “DO NOT FLUSH” light will
also be on. When these lights are ON, the holding tank
must be emptied before the head can be reused.
To empty holding tank, the services of a dockside
pumpout station will be needed. Follow instructions at
the station and make sure pumpout station hose is
inserted into the deck plate marked “WASTE.” The
holding tank can also be emptied through utilization of
the macerator if your boat is equipped with this option
(see “MACERATOR OPTION”).
There is the possibility of being fined for hav-
ing an operable direct overboard discharge in
U.S. waters. Removing handle of seacock, in
closed position, or other means must be uti-
lized to avoid fine.
NOTICE
Damage will occur to the macerator if oper-
ated with the deck waste plate off or loose.
M
ACERATOR
(O
PTION
)
The macerator gives the boat operator the means of
discharging the holding tank contents directly overboard
through a seacock in the bottom of the hull. This option
is available in conjunction with the dockside pumpout.
DISCHARGE OF SEWAGE DIRECTLY OVER-
BOARD IS FOR USE WHERE APPROVED ONLY.
! CAUTION
To direct waste from the holding tank to the macerator,
open the overboard discharge seacock.
To operate the macerator:
1. Turn ON the “HEAD SYSTEM” breaker. It is located
on the 12 volt DC distributuion panel. Open the
waste discharge seacock located on the bilge floor
(see fig. 13.1).
2. When tank is empty, turn off the switch at the 12
volt DC distribution panel and close waste
discharge seacock.
