Hi, the bellow pump on my toilet is not working so well, can I get the bellows out without damaging it, so I can see if its connected to the pipes are correct or damaged? Kind regards ian

From the Thetford video AND memory of a post somewhere that IIRC said the bellows pump was sealed in situ with some kind of mastic/sealant, I think it's a destructive process to remove it! Replacement bellows pump should be available if need be.

I don't know the answer but I expect that a phone call to Leisureshopdirect will solve the problem.
A very helpful shop.

Agree.

Has “bellows”, amongst many other items.
And yes, Leisureshopdirect can give technical advice too.

-------------
2025=3 sites, 5 nights; 2024 = 20 sites / 41 nights. 2023 = 9/23. 2022 = 13/35. 2021 = 11/29. 2020 = 4/20. 2019 = 13/35. 2018 = 20/33. 2017 = 10/22. 2016 = 19/33. 2015 = 15 sites / 27 nights. Didn't count 1976 to 2014.
