BLAcK/GRAY WATER HoLDING TANKS

When connected to the sewer drain line at a campground, keep the black tank drain valve
closed until the holding tank is at least 3/4 full. This should provide sufficient water to assist
in complete draining of the black water holding tank. Repeat as needed.
NOTE: Never leave the black tank drain in the open position continuously when
connected to the campground sewer system.
EMPTYING THE BLAcK & GRAY WATER TANKS
The switches for the gray tank and black tank drain valve (also called dump valves) are
located in the outside wet bay. Always drain the black water holding tank first so the fol-
lowing gray tank waste water can help rinse any solids or debris from the dump outlet and
sewer hose.
NOTE: The 40FLB has 2 dump outlets.
