Never had to turn anything with a screwdriver.
Perhaps what I dispose of from my tanks is different from what the reviewer posted? They may need a diet change if they're locking up a cutting blade. [emoji16]
That is the one I ordered. I had never heard of screwdriver thing either until after I bought

I have since did a lot of research and found it to be a common problem. If there was ANY doubt look at page 2 at the bottom of the Mfgs Owners Manual. They tell you what to do with the screwdriver to prevent the fuses from blowing.

I don't have Jet Flo yet so I can say what it will or will not do. I am just planning how I may get power to it once I do received it.

I said I may put a 15 amp fuse in it as an OPTION, the logic is it may work if I can confirm my impeller is not obstructed or stuck with solids that may have dried or hardened? I chose 15 amps because until I get Winnebago to confirm what breaker that wire to Water Pump comes from. I know I can be safe with 15 amps because at least one water pump that is rated 10 amps is on the line. Winnebago may tell me next week that it is 20 amp circuit? If so; I can just plug and play with the 20 amp fuse on the Jet flow.

But as I do more and more research I am looking to make a temporary 25 ft wire extension to run to under RV on ground to my battery compartment which is under the stairwell, not ideal but safe. I am also looking at buying another battery charger that limits the load to 20amps vs my existing charger that would accept up to 50 amps of load? Not sure if they charger on ebay is any good, but it may be work a try versus paying dealer to permanently wire to my wet bay direct from battery?

By the way, I took the 100 ft hose out today. I actually have a sewer tap in drain in my front yard. Depending on where RV is parked the 100ft will reach without going in the house In the spot it will not reach staying outside of the house, I can run the hose through a back door and through the front door and will reach So it is possible that I may not need to pump into the toilet? and it is possible that I may not need to cut the 100ft hose

I just rolled it up on it's cart so it is store in permanent location waiting on macerator. Of course when I get macerator there is nothing to pump out as my black tank is bone dry. I have clear extension and 10ft catch hose as backup to prove it. I can drive the RV, or raise hydraulics at different angles and not a single drop comes out with valves wide open. Eventually that will not be true because eventually I will add antifreeze in the P traps. Remember this thread was about learning that black tank does not always drain empty when you think you have (in my case it was due to slope of tank at the facility); so I have effectively learned what to do to drain my tanks 100% dry if I ever needed to. The Macerator is just to do it at home without having to drive 20 min to the Dump Facility
