Newbie question...

Can any one tell me how to drain our fresh water tank on 2011 6501B without running the taps? I can's see a drain tap underneath and the manual is not very clear (to me at least). Thanks!

Probably the same as a Hymer a triangular shaped wheel on top of the tank, unscrew until it stops that will drain to 20lt carry on to fully drain.

OR
Unscrew the inspection hatch see if there is a chain which pulls a plug out in the bottom of the tank.

Thanks very much for the info Lenny. Going to have a rummage under the travelling seats later on today.

Once you’ve found the drain probably best to flush the tank through with fresh water to dislodge any debris. Then completely refill the tank and add some steriliser (I use Aqua Sol complete Water Treatment) running the taps to draw through the solution and leave for a few hours to work.

Thanks for the tip. I'll do this.

Been off grid for a few days. We run a camp/glamp site and it is bonkers here. Found the drain plug, so thanks for that! Have family here - 14 extra bodies, so moved in to the 6501. Such bliss! I really like the bed and love looking at the interior workmanship. Just got to hang in there until mid-September when we can take 'Myfanwy' her first trip...
