forward bulkhead. The overboard macerator dis-
charge pump and discharge valve are in the forward
bilge compartment. The pump discharges holding
tank waste to a thru-hull fitting in the hull below
the waterline in the same compartment.
To operate the overboard discharge pump, make
sure the thru-hull valve is open. Then turn the key
switch in the panel on. Press and hold the momen-
tary button next to the key switch to activate the
pump. Monitor the fluid level in the holding tank
as it is pumped out. When pumping is complete,
release the button, close the pump out thru-hull
valve and turn the key switch off. Remove the
key from the switch and store in a safe location.
Notice:
Monitor the waste level in the holding tank
closely as the overboard discharge pump
drains the tank and turn the pump off im -
mediately when draining is complete. The
macerator discharge pump will be damaged if
it runs dry for more than a couple of seconds.
Notice:
In order to comply with current State, Federal
and Coast Guard regulations, the pump out
thru-hull valve must be closed and the lockout
key switch must be off and the key removed
whenever the boat is operating in areas in
which the discharge of sewage is prohibited.
CAUTION
IN MANY AREAS IT IS ILLEGAL TO FLUSH HEAD WASTE
DIRECTLY OVERBOARD. VIOLATION OF THESE POLLUTION
LAWS CAN RESULT IN FINES OR IMPRISONMENT. ALWAYS
KNOW THE LAW FOR THE AREAS IN WHICH YOU BOAT.
NEVER DUMP HEAD OR HOLDING TANK WASTE OVERBOARD
ILLEGALLY.
Maintenance
The head should be cleaned and inspected for
leaks regularly.
The holding tank should be pumped out and
flushed as needed. Always add chemical to the
holding tank to help control odor and to chemically
break down the waste. See the head manufac-
turer owner’s manual for additional operating and
maintenance information.
To reduce odor in the cabin, never allow waste
to remain in the holding tank for more than one
week. Make sure to add fresh water to the holding
tank and pump the tank several times to flush it
out during pump out operations.
Important:
The head system must be properly winterized
before winter lay-up. Refer to the Seasonal
Maintenance chapter and the manufacturer
owner’s manual for winterizing instructions.
