305 Conquest-Owner’s Manual
Section 6 - Water & Waste System
Standard waste level
indicator panel
This panel will give you an indication of the level of waste
that is in the holding tank. There are four (4) levels of
indication, empty, low, mid and full. When the indicator
reads full; you should have the holding tank emptied.
MACERATOR
The 305 Conquest waste system also incorporates the
use of a macerator. The macerator pump draws solid
and liquid waste from the holding tank and processes it
prior to discharging it overboard through a lockable
seacock. The pump is designed to handle waste, toilet
tissue and facial tissue but will not pump solid objects.
It is important that you close your macerator discharge
seacock prior to using the shoreside discharge function.
Contact your dealer or Coast Guard station for infor-
mation on overboard discharge and its penalties.
Head System
Both intake and discharge seacocks should always be
in the closed position when the toilet is not in use.
Failure to do so could result in flooding, property dam-
age and loss of life.
CAUTION
This boat is equipped with an optional overboard dis-
charge valve. Discharging of sewage directly overboard
is for use where approved only.
NOTICE
There are severe state and federal penalties for dis-
charging raw sewage and solid waste in waters where
it is not permitted. Check with local authorities on where
this is permissible, if possible employ the use of a
shore side discharge.

HEAD
SYSTEM
Your 305 Conquest has a head com-
partment located on the aft starboard
side of the cabin. It is fitted with a
VacuFlush® waste containment system
that includes: The VacuFlush® toilet,
vent, holding tank, vacuum pump and associated hoses
and clamps. Complete operating and maintenance in-
structions can be found in the VacuFlush® operations
manual.
OPERATION
Energize the switch marked “VACUUM FLUSH” on
the DC MDP. Turn the keyswitch located in the head
compartment, (below the tankwatch panel) clockwise.
Your vacu-flush toilet has a flush lever on the lower left
side of the bowl. Raise the lever to fill the bowl with
water, more water is required when flushing solids. To
flush, push the lever down for three (3) seconds or until
the contents have cleared the bowl. The flush lever will
automatically return to a neutral position. If the contents
of the toilet were not emptied, you will have to wait till
there is sufficient vacuum (the vacuum pump stops run-
ning) before attempting to clear the bowl.
DOCK-SIDE DISCHARGE:
The Dock-side discharge deck plate for the 305 Con-
quest is located on the port side of the gunwale and is
marked “WASTE”. Access to the port is gained by use
of a special key that is included in the owners manual
packet.
The dockside facility will have a connection to fit your
boat. Shore side discharge is a preferred method
of waste disposal.
This keyswitch panel can be used when you are ready
to discharge waste into the holding tank.
