AFTER USE
SHUT THE FLUSH CONTROL.
( )
SHUT BOTH SEACOCKS
If the toilet is connected to ANY through-hull fittings that are below the waterline at any time, and if the toilet
or pipework is damaged, water may flood in, causing the craft to sink, which may result in loss of life.
Therefore, after every usage, both seacocks (or secondary valves) MUST be shut.
Whenever your craft is unattended, even if only for a very short period of time, both seacocks (even if
secondary valves are fitted) MUST be shut.
Ensure that ALL users understand how to operate
the toilet system correctly and safely, including
seacocks and secondary valves.
Take special care to instruct children, the elderly
and visitors.
SHUT SEACOCKS!
NOTE: Do not put anything in the toilet unless you
have eaten it first, except toilet paper. Do not put
in: Sanitary Towels, Wet Strength Tissues, Cotton
Wool, Cigarettes, Matches, Chewing Gum or any
solid objects, Petrol, Diesel, Oil, Solvents of any
kind or water more than hand hot.
To clean the bowl, use any liquid or cream ceramic cleaner.
To clean the rest of the toilet, including the seat and lid, use a non-abrasive liquid cleaner. Polish with a dry
cloth only.
3. CLEANING
To disinfect the toilet, use a liquid disinfectant diluted in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
You may apply it to all parts of the toilet using a sponge or soft brush as necessary.

Regular use - if not used regularly lubrication is beneficial - refer to OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS for
SEAFLO manual toilets do not normally require maintenance during the season, provided that they are
winterised in the autumn and overhauled in the spring. However, any toilet will benefit from:
If the toilet is connected to ANY through-hull fittings and, if the toilet or the pipework develops a minor
leak, it can suddenly become a major leak that allows water to flood in, causing the craft to sink, which may
result in loss of life. Therefore, if ANY leak develops you MUST repair it immediately.
REPAIR LEAKS IMMEDIATELY!
CLOSE BOTH SEACOCKS (even if secondary valves are fitted)
Be ready to mop up any water that may come out of the system.
If the vessel is being wintered afloat, WIRE SEACOCKS SHUT
Flush the toilet in accordance with the OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS for NORMAL USE and, in particular,
ensure that all waste has left the discharge pipework and that the bowl is empty.
SEAFLO manual toilets are designed to be user serviceable and no special skills or tools are required.
