CHAPTER GENERAL INFORMATION
1.2 SPECIFICATIONS
(21.09.2005)
The toilet servicing unit, the VTS, is manufactured on a standard chassis, on which Vest-
ergaard Company A/S has altered machine room, tanks, platform and basket.
Enclosed in Appendix 1B to this chapter you will find a list with specifications on the
VTS.
The VTS has been manufactured according to the standards EN 1915-1 and EN 1915-2
regarding general requirements for airport equipment, as well as to EN 12312-13 re-
garding specific requirements for lavatory service equipment. All standards are based on
the Machinery Directive, 98/37/EEC.
NOTE: Stunt driving and horseplay is not permitted with this unit
All are situations against which we cannot provide completely when constructing and
designing.
It must therefore be emphasized that any use of the VTS requires a thorough reading of
and compliance with manuals, service specifications, instructions for operation as well
as ongoing training of operators and authorized service staff members.

CHAPTER GENERAL INFORMATION
During normal operation, operators are ONLY to be in the chassis cabin and
in the basket at the rear end of the unit. Should servicing of aircraft/filling
of fluid into the tanks cause that the operator is required to walk on the
tanks, he must take necessary precautions against falling.
WARNING: Take precautions for personal safety against falling from the
roof.
Do not stand underneath the basket. Do not step onto the platform when
the basket is in operation.
The operator must also be aware that a galvanized walkway grating must
be mounted to allow walking on unit top.
1.4.1.2 Wiring
(21.09.2005)
As the VTS is not electrically insulated, the basket (when mounted) must
never be used near conductors.
If servicing of aircraft toilets is to take place when aircraft engines are run-
ning, the operator must be aware of the risk of induction and blast.
1.4.1.4 Vacuum
(21.09.2005)
When vacuum is used during service, make sure never to mount vacuum
coupling anywhere else than on corresponding coupling on the aircraft.
WARNING: Never start the vacuum pump until the coupling has been
mounted on aircraft.
When the steam generator is used, necessary protection gear must be worn,
according to special instructions.
1.5 TRAINING
(21.09.2005)
Operators and authorized maintenance staff members are designated by the owner and
trained occasioned by the owner. Prior to first use of the VTS, the staff must be trained
in how to use the unit.
It is of vital importance that each member of the personnel keeps up his knowledge of
the VTS and its limitations.
If parts/sections of the unit are replaced by some other than the ones specified, provisions
on warranty and reliability no longer apply to the manufacturer Vestergaard Company
A/S.
As enclosure in Appendix 1C to this chapter you will find the EU-Declaration of Con-
formity with indication of manufacturer's basic data.

CHAPTER OPERATING MANUAL
In this chapter, we will go through operation of the VTS point by point. When appropri-
ate, references will be made to positions in the Panel Description. Therefore, a close read-
ing through of the Panel Description is a pre-condition of a complete understanding of
this chapter.
References to the Panel Description will be made as follows: 4P1 refers to position 4 on
panel 1.
NOTE: With regard to the operation of the unit, the operators must be
aware that diesel engines are damaged from long periods of unloaded run-
ning. During longer pauses the unit must be turned completely off.
Prior to first use of the VTS, chapter 1 concerning general information and conditions
for operating the VTS must be read thoroughly, in order to understand the general terms
of the restrictions and safety risks that must be observed by use of the unit.
1. Check the oil level of the engine by means of the dip stick.
2. Moreover, check the hydraulic oil level through the inspection glass on the tank;
the tank must be completely full. The basket must be in its resting position when
making the check.
3. Check the diesel oil level by means of the gauge on the dash board. The machine
room fuelheater uses diesel oil from the chassis tank; therefore, the level must be
ample.
4. Start the chassis motor. Be aware that it might be necessary to preheat in case of
cold start. Also check the fluid level in the tanks.
5. The VTS is now to be operated as any other truck chassis. For more information
in that connection, we refer to the chassis instructions.
Before the VTS is ready for operation, the gear selector must be put in neutral position,
and the parking brake must be activated. As soon as a function is activated, the PTO will
be engaged automatically. When the PTO is engaged, the engine automatically increases
its number of revolutions.

CHAPTER OPERATING MANUAL
2.5 PLATFORM/BASKET
(30.06.2014)
The VTS is equipped with a basket, mounted at the rear end of the unit. If the basket is
up and the the parking brake is disengaged, the chassis engine will stop.
Position the chassis to the aircraft. Operate basket by means of switch (7P6+22P6). If
necessary, de-ice aircraft hatch and couplings. Mount vacuum and fluid couplings on the
aircraft.
1. Start the vacuum pump on switch (3P6) and let the pump build completely up a
maximum of vacuum (wait approximately 15 seconds).
2. Now open the waste valve on the aircraft and then the vacuum valve (5P6). The
aircraft tanks will be emptied by means of vacuum.
3. With the vacuum pump still operating, the water pump (20P6) can be started, in
order to flush the aircraft tank thoroughly. Normally, no more than 15-30 litres
water will be required for the flushing. If necessary, the procedure can be repeated.
Flushing can be made in one of two ways: Either flushing can be done as required
by circumstances, or a certain amount of flushing fluid can be entered on 27P6 and
29P6. Indicated on display (23P6).
4. When servicing is finished, close the waste valve on the aircraft, stop fluid pump
(20P6) and vacuum pump (3P6). The vacuum valve (F27) closes automatically.
Be aware that the return suction starts automatically when the fluid pumps are
turned off. Return suction takes approx. 20 seconds.
When finished, filling of fluid will stop automatically, and return suction starts
automatically, too. Return suction takes approx. 20 seconds.
2. When return suction has stopped, couplings can be removed. Now basket (if
mounted) and hose can move back to their resting positions.
3. The chassis is ready to drive away, and next tank or aircraft can be serviced
The VTS is equipped with a low-level shut-down feature which will protect the pump
from running dry. In case the fluid level in one or both tanks is too low, one or both
pumps will stop.
- Should this happen, fill the empty tank(s) to put the pumps back in operation.
IMPORTANT: The manhole cover (F40) must remain closed during emptying
of waste tanks to avoid splashing of water on people nearby and/or on ve-
hicle.
4. Close the waste valve by means of on-off switch (9P1).
Flushing stops automatically when valve is closed. In case waste substances accu-
mulate around the waste valve, wash away these while draining of the waste tank
takes place.
NOTE: To operate the dump valve the parking brake must be activated and
the gear selector must be in neutral.
NOTE: When the dump valve is open, the engine will stop if gear selector is
moved from neutral.

CHAPTER OPERATING MANUAL
5. When emptying is completed, open manhole cover (F40) and check the vacuum
outlet valve system. Rinse it with water if necessary.
WARNING: Take precautions for personal safety against falling from the
roof.
The hydraulic system stops automatically. The chassis itself can be stopped by turning
the ignition key.
by pressing the down switch (8P6) - this requires that electrical power supply is
available;
by pulling the wire located on the elevating system between the rear end of the ve-
hicle and the basket.
IMPORTANT: If the basket is emergency lowered, the hose will not be auto-
matically wound up.
Filling of fluid takes place through the manhole on top of the tanks.
To avoid overfilling/overflow, do not forget to keep an eye on the fluid level in the tank
when filling in fluid.
Should filling of fluid into the tanks cause that the operator is required to walk on the
tanks, take the necessary precautions against falling.
WARNING: Take precautions for personal safety against falling from the
roof.
The operator must also be aware that a galvanized walkway grating must
be mounted to allow walking on unit top.
In case of an emergency, push emergency stop (9P6). By that all movements are frozen
and the situation can be settled. Then reset emergency stop by turning it and resume the
procedure.
2.12 CLEANING
(21.09.2005)
To promote convenient and easy use of the VTS by the operator, and with view to au-
thorised maintenance staff work, the unit must be kept clean and tidy, inside as well as
outside. Cleaning also reduces the risk of infection from waste in the aircraft tanks.
1. Place outlet from vacuum pump over drain before starting to flush.
2. Disconnect suction hose from coupling heater to ensure sufficient airflow to vac-
uum blower.
3. Start flushing of the pump by pressing switch (2P2) located on panel P2 in the ma-
chine room.
The flushing is PLC-controlled and will be made automatically. Flushing stops af-
ter approx. 4 min.
4. Reconnect suction hose to coupling heater when flushing has stopped.
2.13.1 SENSORS
(18.05.2009)
The unit is equipped with a greensights reversing aid system, that can be a help when
reversing against an obstacle.

CHAPTER MAINTENANCE
4.1 MAINTENANCE
The following are comments to the schematic maintenance program presented in the end
of this chapter.
1. BASIC UNIT
(21.09.2005)
At least once a year the hydraulic tank must be cleaned and rinsed thoroughly.
- Check the hydraulic system for leakages daily. To be able to locate any leakage, for
example at connections and couplings, keep all hoses, pipes, valves and cylinders
constantly clean. This is to ensure the operationality of the hydraulic system.
When servicing the fluid pump, follow the special instructions. This is to ensure the op-
erationality of the fluid system.
- Check the fluid system for leakages daily. To be able to locate any leakage, for ex-
ample at connections and couplings, keep all hoses, pipes and valves constantly
clean. The cleaning includes as well the inside as the outside of the fluid system.

CHAPTER MAINTENANCE
At least once a year the waste tank ought to be inspected thoroughly. The inspection can
be done by entering the tank through the manhole.
Flush vacuum pump every day - see chapter 2, section 2.13, Cleaning, for description.
- Check the waste system for leakages daily. To be able to locate any leakage, for ex-
ample at connections and couplings, keep all hoses, pipes and valves constantly
clean. The cleaning includes as well the inside as the outside of the waste system.
In order to ensure an optimum of vacuum in the tank during servicing, the vacuum
valve must be inspected and cleaned every day.
We recommend that you verify the vacuum after inspection and cleaning - 0,25 bar
should be created when in operation.
Refer also to section 1.19 for daily flushing of the vacuum pump.
2. CHASSIS
(21.09.2005)
Service on the chassis is to be carried out in accordance with the manufacturers recom-
mendations. However, it must be noticed that this kind of operation is very unusual (few
kilometres of driving, but many working hours with the engine running idle), and the
maintenance procedure must be adapted accordingly.
To increase serviceability/lifetime of the chassis and due to the environment the unit
works in, we recommend that a yearly complete paint/corrosion inspection is done on
chassis parts like framework, springs, stabilizers, axles, engine, air system etc. including
bolts/nuts. Should any parts show signs of missing paint or beginning corrosion, we rec-
ommend that the parts are thoroughly cleaned and repainted/retreated against corrosion
to avoid corrosion to develop.
3. FLUID SYSTEM
(21.09.2005)
4. OPTIONS
(31.03.2009)
As specified int the maintenance charts, the lifting system must be inspected throughly
both with regard to construction elements, welding and the hydraulic components. Fur-
ther the tightening of all bolts and nuts must be checked as specified.
For service and maintenance instructions, please refer to special instructions in chapter 8.
