NOTE: The drain outlet swivels downward for
better hose alignment and drainage.
Always keep service access passage
closed while utility connection is not in
use.
When using a sewer hook-up, keep the Black
and Gray Waste Tank Drain Valves closed until
a tank becomes full or when preparing to leave
the site. This keeps the solids in suspension,
allowing them to be carried out with the liquids
when the dump valve is opened. If the valve is
left open, the liquids will drain off, leaving solids
in the tank. Should this accidentally happen,
disconnect the hose, fill the tank about half full
with water, and drive a few miles to dislodge the
solids. A few starts and stops will aid in the
process. Then reconnect the hose and drain in the
normal manner.
