Ongoing Toilet Maintenance
Once your MOBILE/SPACESAVER toilet is installed and you have gone through the initial start-up
procedure, follow the steps outlined below to keep your composting toilet working optimally.
CAUTION
1) Do NOT add or clean the toilet bowl liner with chemicals. Chemicals will kill the bacteria. INSTEAD, clean the bowl
liner with Compost Quick.
2) Do NOT add plastic, glass, metal, cleaning fluids, cigarettes. Add only waste and bulking material.
3) Kitchen or garden waste, are NOT recommended.
4) Do NOT add baby wipes, diapers or feminine paper as they will not compost.

Periodic maintenance
Even if you only use the toilet for urination then at least one cup of
Compost Sure Green should be added per person per day of use.
Add the Compost Sure Green through the hole under the toilet seat
of the MOBILE/SPACESAVER toilet.
Every second day before turning the handle, spray 3-4 sprays of
Compost Quick on the surface of the compost. Compost Quick is an
enzyme that will speed up the composting process.
Turn the handle in a clockwise direction to mix and aerate the
compost. When mixing, ensure that the drum rotates 6 complete
revolutions (36 turns of the handle).
The hole in the drum must be open under the toilet seat, ready to
receive waste.
Add one scoop of Microbe Mix to the patented bio-drum to ‘recharge’
the pile. This will help to ensure your microbe colony stays constant
and healthy.
Rake the evaporation chamber: Remove the finishing drawer. Rake
any solid debris from the floor of the unit under the drawer
(evaporation chamber), paying extra attention to the two back
corners of the unit as this is where debris may accumulate. Remove
the solid debris.
Clean the drum screen. Spray the drum screen with Compost Quick
and let sit for 15 minutes (this will help to loosen the debris if the
screen is not too encrusted). Scrub the screen vigorously with the
wire brush. If
brushing the screen does not clear it and liquid is still
not draining through the screen, you may have to resort to having to
use a screwdriver or nail to puncture each hole in the drum screen.
Remove compost from the drum. When the drum is half full (even
with the middle of the drum hub at the front of the drum) it is time to
remove compost. To remove compost from the drum:
