Is it not possible to turn the 3" waste outlet through 90deg and have the pump horizontal ?
I don't advise dangling from a 3" flexi pipe.. the pump has quite a bit of torque..

Hi Dougie don't know if this will help or not, both my black and grey join in a "Y" outlet after the gate valves on either side and you can move its position, the "Y" pipe will turn in the valves.
If you read an earlier post you can pick up a feed from your genny.

Fantastic! So easy when you know how. That works a treat - problem solved thank you, & Ģ10 membership justified again.
Having now offered the pump up to the sewer outlet, it is quite loose. Is this where the "O" ring is needed? If so, a) why doesn't it come with one, and b) are they obtainable? None listed on Stateside, and can't see them on Valterra's own site.
[EDIT]Just re-read the thread & saw that it is where the "O" ring is needed. So just need one.
Dougie.

Hi Dougie I would assume mine has an "O" but can't remember from memory. It certainly goes up tight, would be nasty if it didn't.
You can get them made, possibly a garage or motorfactors could do this. We used to buy in lengths of the "O" ring rubber in different diameters, cut them to size and super glue the ends together. Used in some pretty arduous conditions without any problems.

Thanks chaps. It definitely does not have an O-ring in the sewer coupling; having checked the existing blanking cap and also the bayonet clip at the end of the flexible hose, they both have fixed-in stepped seals, so impossible to determine the thickness. I don't think it'll be difficult to guesstimate a suitable gauge though.
Dougie.
