13.7.2. Head Operating Procedure.
The marine heads on your Beneteau are installed below the water line, all
valves must be closed after use and the selection lever on the head must be
returned to the dry bowl position. Failure to do so could result on the bowl
overflowing and flooding the boat with water.
1.
Read the instructions for use supplied by the head manufacturer and the
precautions marked on the pump.
2.
Before use, make sure that the water supply thru-hull valve is open, the
holding tank vent line valve is open and the Y-valve is selected for discharge into
the holding tank.
BY LAW YOU MUST USE A HOLDING TANK IN ALL US WATERS
3.
Check with local authorities for regional laws
governing your area before selecting the overboard discharge
option. If you choose overboard discharge option, be sure the
discharge thru-hull valve is open before using the head.
Select the overboard discharge position on the Y-valve by
turning the lever in the opposite direction of the overboard
discharge hose.
4.
Select "Flush Bowl" with the
selection lever on top of the pump body
and pump the handle until the bowl is
flushed clean. Return the selection lever to
"Dry Bowl" and pump the handle until the
bowl is dry. The holding tanks capacity is
approx. 12 gallons, limiting pump strokes
will maximize its use.
5.
CLOSE THE VALVES AFTER USE.
13.7.3. Holding Tank Pump Out Procedure
The holding tanks are pumped out thru deck plates located on the starboard
transom and in the forward anchor locker. Consult your dealer or your marina for
the closest pump out facility in your area.
1. Be sure the holding tank vent line valve is open.
2. Open the deck plate with a winch handle and insert the pump out hose into the
deck fill,
3. Follow the pump out stations operating procedure to pump all of the effluent
from the tank.
4. Flush the tank by pumping water thru the head into the tank or by inserting a
hose into the deck fitting to add fresh water and then pump the tank again.
5. Close the deck fitting.
