2470 WALKAROUND

Chapter 12:

INTERIOR EQUIPMENT

12.1 Portable Head

The system is made up of two major components, an upper tank and a

lower tank. The upper tank contains the freshwater supply, a bellows

pump, a seat and the lid. The bottom tank contains the flush valve, a

waste holding tank, a chemical storage compartment and the drain

nozzle. The components are secured together by a clamping mecha-

nism when the portable head is ready for use.

In some areas the law requires that portable heads be equipped with an

optional permanent deck mounted pump out system to evacuate the

waste with a dock side pump. Boats with a portable head pump out will

be equipped with a deck fitting marked “waste” located on the deck.

Since this system is required to be permanent, the bottom waste tank

cannot be removed and the only way to evacuate the system is by a dock

side pump.

To use the portable head, add the recommended amount of holding tank deodorant to the waste

tank and fill the freshwater tank. To flush after use, pull the waste valve handle straight out, then

press the flushing bellows one or more times to rinse. To close and seal the waste holding tank,

simply push the valve handle all the way in. Monitor the level in the waste tank and empty as

necessary.

Maintenance

To keep your portable head operating properly it must be emptied and properly cleaned

periodically. Please refer to the manufacturer owner’s manual for detailed instructions on the

proper operation of your portable head.

IN SOME AREAS THE LAW REQUIRES A WASTE PUMP OUT SYSTEM ON POR-

TABLE HEADS. IF YOUR BOAT IS EQUIPPED WITH THE WASTE PUMP OUT,

MAKE SURE YOU KNOW THE LAWS FOR THE AREAS IN WHICH YOU BOAT BE-

FORE MODIFYING OR REMOVING THE PUMP OUT SYSTEM.

THE PORTABLE HEAD MUST BE PROPERLY WINTERIZED BEFORE WINTER

LAY-UP OR FOR COLD WEATHER USE. PLEASE REFER TO THE MANUFAC-

TURER OWNER’S MANUAL FOR COLD WEATHER AND WINTERIZING INSTRUC-

TIONS.
