Gray Water System
The OP15 gray water tank has a capacity of 17 gallons and is the front most tank on the underside of
your trailer. It collects the gray water from your shower and bathroom sink. Please note that your
kitchen sink does not drain into the gray water tank. Please visit the Kitchen secon of this manual for
more informaon on the kitchen sink drain. You should connually monitor the ll level of your gray
tank using the gauge on the main control panel during use. We recommend emptying your gray tank
when it is around 3/4 full. You will nd the gray water drain outlet on the gray water tank. Please
remember to dispose of gray water safely at dumping staons or other permied outlets.
Only liquid run o from the shower and sink should be drained into your gray water tank. No other liquid is permied to be
drained into the gray tank. It is important to regularly clean your gray water tank as a build up of grease, dirt and soap scum can
impact the funcon of the tank and cause odor. Please see refer to the OP15 Care and Maintenance secon of this manual for
proper cleaning steps and for cleaning and draining prior to storage. Do NOT use bleach to clean your gray water tank.
Black Water System & Toilet
The OP15 black water tank is located towards the front of the trailer on the lower edge of the drivers
side. It can be idened by the black tank drain valve. The capacity of the tank is 10 gallons and the ll
level can also be monitored using the gauge on the main control panel. We recommend emptying
your black tank when it is at least 1/2 to 3/4 full and aer every camping trip. Emptying your tank
sooner may result in solid waste being le behind in your tank; a fuller tank allows more opportunity
for breakdown of solid waste. All waste from the OP15 toilet is collected in the black tank so please
take cauon when emptying to avoid contact with waste which can carry harmful bacteria. The black
tank must ONLY be disposed of in designated dump staons. At the rear of the trailer is a holding
tube for the black tank drain hose. To empty your black tank:
