installed on your boat is a marine toilet.
This portable toilet pro vides simple operation
and convenient disposal of w aste. The w aste is
transpor ted off the boat b y removing the toilet’ s
holding tank.
HOLDING TANK
Waste may be stored in a holding tank which is
separate from the head. Use a dockside
pumpout station to empty the holding tank.
Make sure the pumpout station hose is inser ted
into the WASTE deck plate labeled w aste which
is usually located amidships. F ollow instructions
at the station for pumping out your holding tank.
VACUFLUSH® HEAD
The VacuFlush toilet operates differently than
other marine toilets. Figure 4.1 is a schematic
of a typical V acuFlush system. This system uses
a little more than a pint of w ater per flush in
addition to a simple vacuum. The toilet is con-
nected to a pressurized fresh w ater system.
Fresh water is the k ey to an odor free head
compartment. VacuFlush toilets are equipped
with an integral vacuum break er which pre vents
the possible contamination of the w ater supply.

of the V acuFlush system and that the instr uc-
tion label is in plain sight and easy to read.

removes water from the bilge area. Rising w ater
