When the holding tanks become full or when it is convenient to empty a filled
tank:
1. Remove the drain hose from the holder
2. Remove the dust cap from the drain and connect the drain hose. Be sure it is
firmly attached.
3. Place the other end of the drain hose into the disposal connection.
4. Open the valve handle. (It is recommended to drain the black tank before the
gray water tank.)
5. Close the black tank valve and open the gray tank valve. Close the valve as
soon as the tank is drained.
6. After both tanks have been drained, run several gallons of water into the
black tank through the toilet. (The tank may also be flushed with the flush
out system.) Then open the sewage dump valve and drain the tank again.
7. Rinse the sewer hose thoroughly with water and stow.
8. It is also advisable to add approximately a ½ gallon of water and some odor
control chemical to the sewage holding tank.
IMPORTANT
Traveling with full holding tanks should ALWAYS BE AVOIDED.
Use of In-Park Sewer System
When you are using a sewer hookup while parked, such as in a trailer park, keep
the dump valves closed, and open only when preparing to leave or when the tank
becomes full. This is important so that the solids in the tank are kept in suspension
allowing them to be carried out with the rush of liquids when the dump valve is
opened. If the valve is left open, the liquids will run off leaving The solids in the
tank. Should this happen, disconnect the hose, fill the tank about half full of water
and drive a few miles to dislodge the solids. A few starts and stops will aide in this
process. Then reconnect the hose and drain in the normal manner.
Cable and Gate Valves
The unit is equipped with Cable Operated Gate Valves. These valves are operated
by pulling and pushing handles located in the exterior utility box. There is no
maintenance to be performed on the valves.
The most common problems associated with gate valves is the buildup of gunk
within the slide grooves of the valves. Here are a few ways to help keep your
valves trouble free:
1. Never leave the gate valves open
2. Flush the black tank each time you dump
3. Put 2 t0 5 gallons of water into the tank after you’ve dumped.
