Anybody tell me how I can remove and check my toilet, as I appear to have a slight leak (signs of pink toilet fluid on toilet floor) and hand pump seems to have lost a lot of power) perhaps plunger seal leaking?.

Thanks for your time and suggestions

if it is pink I would suggest first of all sliding the cassette out and checking the pipe connections underneath

You can't remove the whole thing; well you can but you wouldn't want to.

The leak is more than likely going to be a loose or split pipe, which you might find via the cassette compartment as Birdman suggests.

As for the loss of pump, this will almost undoubtedly be down to a broken Pump Retainer. Check item 26a which is illustrated and marked in the exploded drawing, you can find by clicking here. This part is readily available from most decent accessory stores with a Thetford parts rack. There's a leaflet showing access to the manual pump, available at this link.

If you're up for it, the existing retainer can sometimes be repaired, but the part is only £6-8.

Many thanks to birdman 101 and G7ACU for your prompt response to my query. Thanks also for the exploded views, making everything much clearer.

I'll give it a go soon as possible.

Thanks again

I had the same problem - found out it was the seal on the top of the holding tank - replaced it, no more leaks
