SECTION 7 –
PLUMBING
1. Remove the dust cap from the sewage drain
outlet and connect the sewage drain hose. Be
sure it is firmly attached with the 90 degree
fitting.
NOTE: The sewage drain outlet swivels
downward when necessary to avoid
bends in the sewage drain hose, which
could trap solids while dumping or to
provide more direct drainage while using
on-site sewer hook-up.
2. Open the Black Waste Tank Drain valve with
a quick pull. Move the sewage drain hose
gently about to dislodge any waste and to
ensure complete drainage. Close the Black
Waste Tank Drain valve as soon as the tank is
empty.
NOTE: DO NOT OPEN BOTH VALVES AT
ONCE. Do not open the Gray Waste Tank
Drain valve until the black tank is
drained and Black Waste Tank Drain
valve closed to avoid sewage back-up
into gray tank. Gray water also rinses
any black water solids from the sewage
drain hose.
NOTE: Black and Gray Waste Tank Drain valve
positions may be reversed depending on
floorplan and tank location.
3. Open the Gray Waste Tank Drain valve with a
quick pull. Close Gray Waste Tank Drain
valve as soon as tank is empty.
4. After both tanks have been drained, flush the
black water tank as described in “Flushing
Your Black Water Holding Tank” following
this procedure. (If hose is not available, run
several gallons of water into the sewage tank
through the toilet. Then open the Black Waste
Tank Drain valve and drain the tank again.
Close Black Waste Tank Drain valve when
done).
5. Close sewage drain hose valve by pulling
handle up until lock snaps into place (if
equipped).
6. Rinse end of sewage drain hose thoroughly
with water and stow.
NOTE: If the sewage drain hose will not
collapse while storing, open the sewage
drain hose end valve (if equipped) to
release air trapped inside the hose.
7. Add an odor control chemical to the black
waste holding tank through the toilet. These
chemicals are available at most RV stores.
NOTE: We recommend that you dump all
holding tanks before traveling to avoid
carrying unnecessary weight.
