The OP most likley has another complication if identical to mine.
No separate dump hose to hook up everytimea dumping is required.
The dump hose is permanently hooked up & retracts inside a pipe which is inside the belly. Nice & neat but you need to get close to the dump to use it as the hose only extends about 8' from the storage compartment.
My life with a sticky valve is the same as Durb's. The Allen wrench is kept in the truck, where it is handy, & a tarp to put on the ground is also handy along with tape to reseal the belly.
The DW & I have gotten quite efficient at dealing with the sticky valve. We are faster at the dump than most who have to do the get the hose out routine.
