Waste Disposal; To Connect The Trailer For Waste Disposal - Jayco Jay Feather 2005 Owner's Manual

3. Listen carefully as the gas begins to flow. If "hissing" is heard for more than one or
two seconds, this may indicate a leak. Immediately close the valve and search for the
leak.
4. Light the appliances as needed and directed in the appliance manufacturer's
instructions.
Make sure that you read and fully understand ALL safety requirements for handling and
operation of the LP gas system. Literature is supplied with your unit from the manufacturer
of the various appliances hooked to your LP gas system. The LP gas system provides added
benefits to your camping enjoyment, however, it must be handled with care. If you have
any questions or concerns, consult with your independent, authorized dealer and/or the
specific appliance manufacturer.
If you have double bottles on your trailer, use only one at a time. Otherwise the gas supply
will be drawn equally from both bottles until the supply has been totally exhausted. Using
one bottle until it is empty, then using the second bottle will allow you to fill the empty
bottle at your convenience without being totally out of LP gas.

Waste Disposal

Proper care of the sanitation system is critical to efficient operation. Make sure that you
have reviewed and understand the operation of your system.
Some campgrounds provide sewer hook up right at the individual campsite. This
convenience can save a great deal of energy if utilized properly. If hook up is not provided
at your site, the trailer will need to be moved to an approved dump station.
The termination valves for your holding tanks are located on the exterior of the trailer close
to the drain pipe. Refer to the images indicated in the "Preparing to Travel Home..."
chapter.
When hooked up to the sewer drain line at a campsite, keep the termination valve on the
waste tank CLOSED until the tank is at least 3/4 full. This will provide sufficient water to
assist in complete draining of the tank. At this time, open the termination valve to empty the
tank (see directions for draining above) and close the valve when the tank is empty. Repeat
this process as needed, but NEVER leave the termination valve open when hooked up to
the park's sewer system.

To connect the trailer for waste disposal:

1. Make sure the unit is as level as possible to aid with drainage.
2. Attach the adapter to the flexible sewer hose and secure it with a clamp.
3. Remove the dust cap and attach the adapter onto the drain pipe.
4. Turn the adapter 10° to lock it onto the pegs on the drain pipe.
5. Place the other end of the hose into an approved sewer system.
6. Open the black tank termination valve to empty the black tank.
7. Open the gray tank termination valve to empty the gray tank, utilizing the water to
rinse the flexible hose.
