The
drainage system basically uses properly sized
ABS
plastic piping
and fittings connected to sinks, toilet, and holding tanks, and
provides for their drainage to an outside termination.
A11
fixtures
incorporate the use of
"P"
traps or equivalent to provide
a
water seal
+
against entry of
sewer
gases from outside connections. For fixed use,
the
R.V.
should
be
level for hest operation of the system.
d
DRAIN
OUTLET
The
drain outlet is usually marked
by
a
tag
-
"DRAIN
OUTLET".
It is
engineered for
quick,
detachable type hookup
of
either the dust cap
with
attached chain, or a drain hose adapter fitting. Always secure
the cap when traveling to prevent and leakages (required
by
law in
some states).
DISPOSAL
OF
RBLDIlrlG
TANK
WASTES
Most states and
parks
have strict laws and regulations to
prohibit
dumping
of
wastes of
any
kind into other than regular disposal facilities of sewer
systems.
The
dumping of raw sewage from toilet
waste
tanks into other
than authorized facilities
is
prohibited.
Plan ahead
and
you
will
have lirtfe inconvenience
in
proper
disposal
of
wastes. Almost
all
privately owned parks
have
either
a
cenlral
pump
facili-
ty
or
offer
a
campsite hookup for sewage.
Some
major oji companies
offer
trailer dump facilities at
their
selected service stations.
TOILET
WASTE
HOLDING
TANK
This
tank
is
located directly beneath the toilet. When using, prime
the
tank with a gallon of water containing a brand name toilet odor
control chemical. Place the recommended amount
of
chemical in the
toilet.
Be
careful not to
spill
chemical on your hands, clothing or rug,
as it may cause an unremovable stain. Depress toilet pedal to ailow
mixing
with
toilet water. Continue to depress the pedal until
approximately a gallon of water enters the waste
tank.
Release the
pedal and
the
toilet waste tank
is
ready for use.
Vehicle
movement helps liquify
the
solids for easier dumping of the
tank. For this reason, when possible
it's
always better to dump soon
after road travel rather than before road travel. To empty
the
tank,
connect
drain hose to the drain line termination filling and the sewage
receptor.
Pull
the slide valve
in
one
slow,
continuous motion.
After
the
tank empties, follow
up
with fresh water rinse. Close valve in one
continuous motion and secure.
