handle is in the correct position if the arrow for the top outlet IS NOT covered by the
wide end of the handle.
This is the position the handle should be kept in at all times to prevent the possibility of
mistakenly discharging waste overboard in waters illegally. (Within 3 miles of shore and
where otherwise designated.) If desired, the handle can be locked in this position by
inserting a padlock through the hole on the handle and through the housing on the Y-
valve.
To evacuate the tank overboard using the macerator, open the valve on the waste
discharge thru hull located next to the head intake valve/thru hull. The Y-valve handle
should then be turned so that the wide portion of the handle covers the silver arrow for
the pump-out outlet (the top outlet.) The visible arrows should now be showing the flow
to be going downward. Next, press down the macerator switch on the panel. This will
push the contents in the holding tank out the bottom of the boat through the waste
discharge thru hull. Once the process is complete it is advisable to close the discharge
valve and put the Y-valve handle back into the pump-out position. (The wide portion of
the handle covering the down arrow.)
The Jabsco Y-Valve is designed to provide flexibility of onboard waste management by
diverting waste either to the dockside pump-out fitting or directly overboard where legal
to do so. Check local and federal regulations to determine where direct overboard
discharge of untreated waste is permitted.
Note:
The visible arrows on the Y-valve always show the direction of
the flow. In other words, the wide end of the handle always covers the
arrow for the outlet where the flow is NOT going to go. If the flow is
pointing downwards, the waste is being directed through the bottom
of the hull and overboard. If the flow is pointing up, the waste is being
directed upward to the deck and the pump out fitting.
