A. Porcelain Head - Standard
The 248/268 Vista comes with a porcelain head and a
black/gray water holding tank. The capacities of the
standard black/gray water holding is 16 gallons (60 li-
ters) or 21 gallons (79 liters) respectively. The toilet is
a left hand, manually-operated toilet and is surprisingly
easy to operate. The head obtains sea water from a
pick-up for rinsing the bowl. The pick-up and strainer
are located below the mid cabin floor on the 248/268
Vista models. Tank level indicators are also optional
and are located in the head if so ordered. Please refer
to the following toilet operation instructions, the
manufacturer’s literature in the owner’s packet, and Fig-
ures J3 - J5.
Figure J4: Do Not Place These Items in Toilet Label
To operate toilet:
1.
Move the wet/dry selector to the WET bowl
position (left) and pump handle up and down a
few times to add some water to the bowl prior
to use.
2.
3.
After using, flush again by pumping the handle
up and down (in WET bowl position) until bowl
is thoroughly rinsed and evacuated.
Then move the wet/dry bowl selector to the
DRY bowl position (right) and continue pump
ing until only about one cup of water remains
in the bottom of the bowl.
4.
Leave the wet/dry bowl selector in the dry bowl
position when not in use.

B. Optional VacuFlush Sanitation System
The 248/268 Vista has an optional VacuFlush sanita-
tion system available. The system eliminates the un-
pleasant sulfide odors which plague saltwater systems.
Flush water is no longer drawn through the through-hull
fittings, seacock, and vented loop. It also extends the
life of the system components by eliminating salt water
and impurities from accumulating in the system over
time.
