Waste Drain Hose
A
fl
exible three-inch sewer hose attaches
between the termination drain and the shore
facility. The termination drain is adjustable and
should be periodically exercised. Sewer hoses
usually come in 10 or 20 ft. lengths. The sewer
hose is stored in a tube accessed through a door
on the roadside next to the rear tire. The shore
fi
tting for the sewer hose may be a three or four-
inch, male or female thread pipe; or a four-inch
pipe with no threads, covered by a metal plate.
Different style of adapters are available to
fi
t
most con
fi
gurations. Hose ladders may also be
purchased to support the hose.
It is important that the hose remains secure.
Always tighten clamps and restraining
devices before use
. Lay the hose inline between
the termination outlet and the shore
fi
tting.
Restrain the hose to prevent movement during
use. Wear protective and/or disposable gloves
when handling the sewer hose.
To Exercise the Termination Drain:
Grasp the drain
fi
rmly on both sides of
the drainpipe.
Swivel the pipe up and down several
inches to exercise the internal O-rings.
The drainpipe may be left in the upward
position to prevent residual material
from leaking out.
To Attach the Hose:
Remove sewer hose from carrier.
Unscrew the access deck plate and feed
the drain hose through the opening.
Remove termination cap. Align coupler
tangs with termination tabs. Twist
coupler clockwise 90º locking coupler to
termination outlet.
Rotate the drain pipe downward for
maximum
fl
ow.
Attach other end of hose to drain service.
Restrain hose to prevent movement
during use.
Open the (small) grey water valve.
The black water valve remains closed until
the tank is full or until time of departure to help
prevent clogging. Use the outside faucet or
shower attachment for washing or rinsing the
sewer hose after dumping the black tank.
NOTE:
Use care when connecting the sewer
hose adapter to the termination outlet in
cold weather.
NOTE:
Close the grey water valve 24 hours
prior to departing to allow the tank to
fill with liquid to help in the dumping
process.
LUBE:
Periodically
lubricate the
O-ring on the
sewer hose
adapter with
silicone spray.
Tank Flush
The motorhome is equipped with power
fl
ush
nozzles, located in the black and grey tanks, to
help reduce solids build-up. Flush the tanks at
each drain cycle. Failure to thoroughly rinse
the black tank may result in accumulated solids
and a clogged spray nozzle. The valve and
fl
ush
connection are located in the lower left of the
water service bay.
