TOTE-ALONG OWNER'S INSTRUCTIONS
16 GALLON - P/N 28191
**Contents: Instructions, warranty card, tow handle, pin for handle, black square cap for handle, 1 grey filler hose, 1 bobber gauge, 2 bayonet hose
adaptors, 2 hose clamps, 1 garden hose cap, 1 gasket for garden hose cap, 2 - 3" caps, 2 straps for caps, and 1 sewer hose.
Step 1 - Take everything out of the box (tank and hardware bag and handle).
Step 2 - Take everything out of the plastic bag.
Step 3 - Attach tow handle (be sure the handle is turned the correct way--with the loop facing out or away from tank, so the handle
will lean against tank when it is attached).Attach square black plastic cap to tow handle.
Step 4 - Put sewer hose onto adaptors and tighten with clamps. (This is the hardest thing hardest part of putting your tank together.)
To make your life easier and less muttering under your breath, take a hair dryer, heat the hose slightly. The hose will expand to make
the connection simpler. You can do it without a hairdryer, but you may break a nail and it takes some time and patience. Once you
get one adaptor end on, put the two silver hose clamps onto hose and then attach the other adaptor. That way you won't have to
unscrew the hose clamp to insert it around the hose. Now, tighten the hose clamp at the base of the adaptor and hose. (You can use
a coin to tighten, if you don't have a screwdriver handy.)
Step 5 - Attach one end of the rubber strap to 3" cap(s) and attach the other end of rubber strap to tank (one on side at valve and one
on top). Close caps on tank for transporting. When you take the caps off to attach 3" adaptor/sewer hose assembly for emptying,
you will still have your transport caps at hands reach.

Remove garden hose cap and install
bobber gauge. Once tank is full (you
can tell from the bobber gauge), it
needs to be emptied. Remove the
sewer hose from trailer waste valve
and the tank (you don't want to tow
the tank with the sewer hose
attached). Attach the 3" cap to top of
tank (where sewer hose was located).
Now you can hook the tow handle to
the hitch ball on whatever you have to
drive around (car, golf cart, bike, etc.)
Bring your sewer hose…you will use it at the dump site. (If you are done camping,
bring your grey garden hose so you can rinse your tank.) At the dump site, attach
one end of the sewer hose to the side of your tank and the other end to the dump
station. Remove the garden hose cap or bobber gauge for ventilation. Open the valve on the side of the tank by pulling up on the
black handle and contents of tank will empty.
Now you take the grey water hose and attach it where it was vented. You can hook up the water supply at the dump station and rinse
your tank (if you are done camping). Put both 3" caps back on empty tank and take your accessories with you back to camp.
Step 6 - Attach
garden hose
cap (as shown).
At campsite, take assembled sewer
hose and attach one end on the top of
the tank (as shown in this picture) and
the other end to waste valve on trailer.

IMPORTANT NOTES: Do not tow your tank faster than 5 mph (or
walking speed). This may damage tank or wheels and will NOT be
covered under warranty. The pneumatic tires may need air periodically.
Inflate with a bicycle air pump. An air compressor may over inflate and
damage tire tubes (not covered under warranty).
