rect operation of the toilet is essential for the safety and comfort of your
crew and craft.
Hazard Risk:
Accidental Damage
If the toilet is connected to ANY through-hull fittings that are below the
waterline at any time, and if the toilet or pipe-work is damaged, water may
flood in, causing the craft to sink, which may result in loss of life.
Therefore, after every usage; both seacocks (or secondary valves) MUST
be shut.
Whenever your craft is unattended, even if only for a very short period of
time, both seacocks (even if secondary valves are fitted) MUST be shut
Ensure that ALL users understand how to operate the toilet system cor
-
rectly and safely, including seacocks and secondary valves

2. Half fill the bowl with warm fresh water
3. Keeping the Flush Control Lever in the “Shut position”, pump out
the warm water
2. Normal Use
Open inlet and outlet seacocks (and secondary valves if fitted).
•
Before use, ensure that there is enough water in the bowl to pre-
vent the toilet paper becoming compacted at the bottom of the
bowl. If the bowl is empty, move the Flush Control Lever to the
“Open position” and pump the handle up and down until the flush-
ing pump is primed and water enters the bowl, then shut the
“Flush Control”.
•
Operate the pump with long, smooth strokes for efficient and easy
operation.
•
During use, pump as necessary to keep the contents of the bowl
low enough for comfort.
•
Use good quality hard or soft household toilet paper, but do not
use more than necessary.
•
After use, keep the Flush Control Shut (
) and pump until the
bowl is empty.
•
When the bowl is empty, Open the Flush Control (
) again,
and continue to pump until all waste has either left the boat, or
reached the holding tank (allow 7 complete up/down strokes per
meter length of discharge pipe-work.
Afterwards, shut (
) the Flush Control and pump until the bowl is
empty, Always leave the bowl empty to minimise odour and spillage

-
tive methods to keep the toilet clean and good smelling.
•
To clean the bowl, use any liquid or cream ceramic cleaner
•
To clean the rest of the toilet, including the seat and lid, use a non-
abrasive liquid cleaner Polish with a dry cloth only.

ance with the manufacturer’s instructions. It is possible to apply it

MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
INTRODUCTION:
Johnson Pump marine toilets normally do not require maintenance during
the season, provided that they are winterized in the autumn and overhauled
in the spring.
However, any toilet will benefit from:
Thorough flushing (refer to the operating instructions for normal use).
Regular use if not regularly used, lubrication is beneficial (refer to the oper
-
ating instructions for the first use)
HAZARD RISK LEAKS: If the toilet is connected to any through-hull fit
-
tings, and if the toilet or the pipework develops a minor leak, this leak can
suddenly become a bigger leak which will allow water to flood in, causing
the craft to sink, with subsequent loss of property and life.
THEREFORE, IN CASE ANY LEAK DEVELOPS, REPAIR IT IMMEDIATE
-
LY! MOREOVER, REGULARLY INSPECT ALL FASTENINGS TO CHECK
TIGHTNESS AND LEAKS.
Service
1Preparation for winterization
Johnson Pump manual toilets are design to be simple to service; therefore
no special skills are needed, as well as no special tools are required.
•
Flush the toilet according to the operating instructions for normal
use and particularly ensure that all waste has left the discharge
pipework, that the bowl is empty and that both seacocks are
closed (even though secondary valves are fitted)
•
Mop-up any water which might come out of the system
2 Seal replacement
If water begins to leak round the piston rod on top of the pump, it means
that the seal assembly is worn out and should be replaced.
To this purpose, you will have to act as follows:
You will need a “Gasket kit”
•
Raise the handle to the top of its travel and wrap one turn of tape
around the piston rod immediately below the handle. Using pliers,
grip the piston rod only through the tape, unscrew the handle and
remove the bumper washer. KEEP HOLD OF THE PISTON ROD AS
LONG AS THE OPERATION HAS BEEN COMPLETED, since if you
let it go, it might fall inside the pump.
•
Unscrew the seal assembly and slide it off the piston.
•
Wrap one turn of tape around the thread at the top of the piston
rod to protect the new seal, slide the new seal down the piston rod
and tighten it.
•
Remove the tape from the thread.
•
Replace the bumper washer and the handle, absolutely by gripping
the piston rod through the tape.
•
Remove the tape from the piston rod.
