-full before
draining . Be sure to cover the tank bottom
with water after draining .
• Use only toilet tissue formulated for use in
septic tank or RV sanitation systems .
• Keep both knife valves closed and locked,
and the drain cap tightly in place when
using the system on the road .
• Use only cleaners that are approved for use
in septic tank or RV sanitation systems .
• Use a special holding tank deodorant chem -
ical approved for septic tank systems in the
black water holding tank . These chemicals
aid the breakdown of solid wastes and make
the system much more pleasant to use . Do
not put facial tissue, paper, ethylene glycol-
based or other automotive antifreeze, femi-
nine hygiene products or household toilet
cleaners in the holding tanks .
• Do not put anything solid in either tank
that could scratch or puncture the tank .
• In the event your black tank accumulates
excessive solid matter, pour 20 pounds of
“cube” ice and 1 pound of rock salt into the
tank . Drive around for 15-20 minutes and
then drain the tank . Flush with fresh water .
if the drain system does get clogged:
• Use a hand-operated probe to loosen stub -
born accumulations .
• Seriously clogged P-traps may require
disassembly . Be careful not to overtighten
when reassembling .
• Do not use harsh household drain cleaners.
• Do not use motorized drain augers.
• Sometimes the holding tank valve will get
clogged . In this case, a hand-operated auger
may be necessary . Be ready to close the
valve quickly once the clog is cleared . If the
seal gets damaged, it is easily replaced .
Cold Weather Usage
The holding tank(s) area is heated through ducts
from the furnace . To prevent holding tank freeze
up, the furnace thermostat should be set to
maintain a minimum of 33 degrees Fahrenheit
in the holding tank(s) area . Be aware that
exposed drains may freeze quickly .
