226 • SECTION 6 — WATER SYSTEMS DYNASTY 2006
Drain valves and a tank fl ush system dispose waste through a common termination. Each holding tank has a
separate drain valve dumping the waste water (grey water) and sewage (black water) through a common single
discharge outlet. The tank drain valves are located service center on the roadside. Use the Aladdin™ System to
observe tank levels. When ready to drain the tanks, drain the sewage tank fi rst. Next, fl ush the black tank with the
fl ush system. Close black tank valve after fl ushing tank. Drain the grey water tank. Using this sequence helps to
fl ush solids from the sewer hose. It is recommended that both holding tanks are less than half full when traveling.
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 foot 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 confi 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.
• Remove termination cap. Align coupler tangs with termination tabs. Twist
coupler clockwise 90º locking coupler to termination outlet.
• Unscrew the access deck plate and feed the drain hose through the opening.
• 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.
