Helpful Hints
■
Additional hoses can be purchased from Thetford and used
to extend the length of the evacuation hose. Connect the
hoses using 1.5 “ (3.8 cm) barbed coupling with clamp.
■
If you wish to extend the evacuation hose, connect a .75
in (1.9 cm) inner diameter garden hose to the end of the
nozzle.
■
Before storing the hose, make sure that all liquid has drained from
the hose.
A longer evacuation hose reduces flow rate.
NOTICE
Gray water bypass is possible if the discharge plumbing
does not flow upward.
