The U.S. Coast Guard requires a method of fire suppression on ev- ery boat operating within U.S. waterways. MasterCraft has made this an optional installation because of the recognition that needs can vary considerably. In some instances, consumers may want to purchase a fire extinguisher from an aftermarket supplier. Master- Craft also offers a standard, manual fire extinguisher that can be installed at the time of purchase or at any point after the fact. In some models, an automatic fire suppression system is available for the motorbox area. This system operates off a sensor, and there is no need for the boat operator to manually start it. However, as with any addition to a boat, there is potential for failure. For that reason, MasterCraft recommends that boats be equipped with a manual fire extinguisher unit as well.

MasterCraft further recommends that boat owners include a check of the fire suppression and extinguisher units during the annual maintenance to be sure that they are always ready for use. Some units may not require annual checks; refer to the sig- nage and labeling on the individual units for further guidance.

Head

The following information is provided for the head installed in a MariStar 280 or X-80:

Preparing the head for use:

Step 1: With the seat lid closed, pull the flush handle to open the slide valve. Then push to close. This relieves air pressure that may be created in the lower holding tank due to changes in temperature or altitude.

Step 2: Remove the water cap and fill the upper tank until it reaches about 1 inch (25 mm) below the opening. Replace the cap.

Step 3: Pull the flush hand to open slide valve.

Step 4: Pour deodorant directly into the lower tank, then close the slide valve. Do NOT pour deodorant into the bowl with the slide valve closed.

Step 5: Stroke the air pump about 15 times or until air emits through the relief valve on the water cap. Do not over- pressurize the upper tank by covering the relief valve. Do not let the upper tank pressurize when it is discon- nected from the lower tank.

In using the toilet:

Step 1: Before each use, with the seat lid closed, pull the flush handle to open the slide valve, then push to close. This relieves air pressure that may be created in the lower holding tank due to changes in temperature or altitude.

Step 2: Pull the flush hand to release waste in the lower tank.

Step 3: Push the flush button to rinse the bowl. Push the flush hand to close the slide valve.

To empty the holding tank:

Step 1: When the tank level indicator shows “FULL,” or at the end of an outing, empty the lower tank.

Step 2: Pull up on the rear latch to separate the upper tank from the lower tank. Carry the lower tank to an autho- rized waste disposal area or a normal toilet. (DO NOT

DISPOSE WASTE IN ANY LOCATION, INCLUD- ING NAVIGABLE BODIES OF WATER, WHERE SUCH DISPOSAL IS ILLEGAL OR CREATES AN ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD.)

Step 3: Rotate the discharge spout way from the tank and open the vent on top of the holding tank. Empty the tank.

Step 4: If water is available, rinse the lower tank before reas- sembling the portable toilet.
