A flexible three inch sewer hose attaches between the termination drain
and the shore facility. Sewer hoses usually come in 10 or 20 foot lengths.
The shore fitting for the sewer hose may be a three or four inch pipe, which
could be male or female thread. Another possibility may be a four inch pipe,
with no threads, covered by a metal plate. There are many configurations.
Different style adapters are available to fit most configurations. 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 fitting. Restrain the hose to prevent movement during
use. Wear protective and/or disposable gloves when handling the sewer hose.
To Attach the Hose:
1. Remove termination cap. Align coupler tangs with termination
tabs. Twist coupler clockwise 90º locking coupler to termination
outlet.
2. Attach the other end of the hose to the drain service. Restrain
hose to prevent movement during use.
3. Open the liquid waste drain water valve.
NOTE: Close the liquid waste drain water valve 24 hours prior to
departing to allow the tank to fill with liquid to help in the
dumping process.
The solid waste drain water valve remains closed until the tank is full or
until time of departure. This will help prevent accumulation of solids. Use
the outside faucet or shower attachment for washing or rinsing.
NOTE: Lubricate the O-ring on the sewer hose adapter
periodically with silicone spray. Use care when connecting the
sewer hose adapter to the termination outlet in cold weather
