SEWAGE DIRECTLY OVERBOARD IS FOR USE
ONLY WHERE APPROVED.
Since direct overboard discharge is prohibited in
many areas, the macerator seacock is normally
closed. The macerator seacock is equipped with a
system interlock switch which prevents the
operation of the macerator when the macerator
seacock is closed. The light on the MACERATOR
switch on the DC Distribution Panel will be lighted
when the macerator is operational. If the light is
not lighted, it is visual confirmation the macerator
seacock is closed and that the macerator cannot
be operated. Check that the macerator seacock
handle is in the open position and the light on the
switch is lighted before operating the macerator.
NOTICE
This boat may be equipped with an optional
overboard discharge valve.
Discharging of sewage directly overboard is for use
where approved only.
