SECTION SIX
HEAD AND ICE BOX
SELF-CONTAINED HEAD: Instructions can be found packed in the head, which is optional on
some models. Your self-contained marine head comes as one unit, divided into two chambers. The
top chamber is the waste holding tank, with a four gallon capacity. The two chambers are separated
and sealed off from each other by a seal. This seal is opened momentarily during flushing. A handle
for opening this seal is found on the top rear of the unit. To flush the unit, the flushing bellows (found
on the top left of the unit) are depressed once or twice. The unit is filled with fresh water by remov-
ing the cap from the large inlet and pouring in water. To evacuate the unit, carry it to any permanent
toilet facility. Remove the cap which seals the holding tank chamber and pour the holding tank con-
tents into the toilet.
No routine maintenance is required. If the bowl sealing blade does not operate freely after extended
use, it may be restored to its original operating condition by applying a light film of silicone spray to
the blade. To clean the unit, use any high grade, non-abrasive cleaner. Do not use highly concen-
trated or high acid content household cleaners. They may damage the rubber seals.
ICE BOX: (Not included on all models) Your ice box is well insulated with polyurethane foam and
should maintain low temperatures over long periods of time. In order to make the ice box as large
as possible, the lower portion and drain is below the waterline. For this reason it is impossible to
drain the ice box into a thru hull. Thusly, a 25-pound block of ice will make about three gallons of
water in the bilge and should be pumped out regularly. One suggestion is to attach an empty plastic
bleach bottle to the ice box drain hose and empty this into the sink whenever it is full.
