The four foot long hose (
B
) has been supplied for connection to the water
outlet. Use this hose to fill buckets, add a sprayer, fill the freshwater
tank, or connect to other water accessories.
If you want to fill the onboard freshwater tank when you are connected
to city water, connect your four feet long hose to the water outlet and use
the hose to fill the tank.
Draining the fresh water tank
-
The
fresh water tank is on the sink
side of the trailer. Simply remove the cap, on the drain spout, at the
bottom rear of the tank. To more fully drain the tank, raise the tongue of
the trailer. Remember to reinstall the cap before you fill the fresh water
tank. The tank should be filled with water during storage in non-freezing
weather.
The gray water tank-
The
sink drains into a "gray water" holding
tank. The gray water tank is the same size as the fresh water tank.
About the time that your fresh water tank is empty, your gray water tank
will be full. If the gray water tank is over filled, wastewater will flow
out of the tank's vent, under the trailer.
To drain the gray water tank, remove the cap from the gray water
tank drain valve, then open the drain valve. The valve handle is on the
underside of the valve. To more fully drain the tank, raise the tongue of
the trailer.
You may want to attach a short hose to the drain valve to help direct
the flow away from the camper or down a sewer drain.
NEVER
use a gray water hose for filling the fresh water tank.
NEVER
use the fresh water hose for draining the gray water tank.
In a campsite with sewer hook-up, you may leave the gray water
drain hose installed at all times.
Remember to close the valve and reinstall the cap when you are
finished draining the gray water tank,
During warmer weather, you may want to add a small amount of RV
holding tank enzymes or chemicals to control the odor. Add the
enzymes or chemicals by pouring them in the sink drain and flushing
them down with some water. These chemicals are available at all RV
dealerships.
If the drain valve clogs due to particles in the wastewater, you may
unscrew the drain valve to clean it. This will also drain the tank more
quickly and completely.
