■
Always use ABYC-RECOMMENDED CIRCUIT BREAKER/FUSE AND WIRE GAUGE.
Always be sure unit's ELECTRICAL POWER is TURNED OFF and that SEACOCKS are CLOSED or in
■
the "OFF" position before beginning work.
■
If Toilet is connected to any through-hull fittings, ALWAYS CLOSE or TURN OFF ALL SEACOCKS
when BOAT IS UNATTENDED – even if only for a minimal time.
■
For units using fresh water that are (at any time) connected to shore side municipal water
supply systems, SHORE SIDE SYSTEM must be DISCONNECTED IF BOAT IS LEFT UNATTENDED –
even if only for a minimal time.
■
If unit is connected to any through-hull fittings, ALL flexible tubing connected directly or
indirectly between toilet and ANY through-hull fitting must be of marine quality and must be
connected to each fitting with TWO (2) STAINLESS STEEL WORM DRIVE HOSE CLAMPS. These
HOSE CLAMPS must be INSPECTED FREQUENTLY TO ENSURE TIGHTNESS, thereby preventing
leaks.
■
If unit is connected to any through-hull fittings, PROPERLY INSTALLED SEACOCKS MUST BE
INSTALLED to these lines. All seacocks (or secondary valves fitted in connecting, intermediate
tubing) MUST BE FULL-BORE VALVES and READILY ACCESSIBLE to all toilet users. Use lever-
actuated, full-bore, marine quality seacocks and valves. Screw-down gate valves are not
recommended.
IF WATER DOES NOT FLOW INTO TOILET DURING THE FIRST TWO OR THREE FLUSH CYCLES, it
■
has been improperly installed or has malfunctioned. Discontinue use of toilet until installation
has been corrected or repairs are made. Please review this manual's Installation section or refer
to the Troubleshooting section.
Use ONLY STAINLESS STEEL mounting hardware. DO NOT INSTALL WITHOUT PLASTIC
■
MOUNTING HOLE INSERTS IN PLACE. Failure to properly mount toilet may result in toilet
becoming loose or damaged.
Only human waste and toilet paper should be put into the toilet. Never flush FOREIGN
■
MATERIALS (e.g., paper towels, pre-moistened wipes, condoms, feminine hygiene products,
dental floss, household garbage, etc.).
2.2
Discharge hoses
This toilet is designed to discharge waste into a 1.5" ID marine-grade sanitation hose/pipe.
WARNING: Use only marine-quality reinforced hoses for installation. Rigid PVC pipe may also be
used for the discharge line. If using flexible hoses, avoid sharp bends that may cause the hose to
kink and restrict flow, and secure the hoses to prevent abrasion. Always inspect the final
installation for leaks.
