Ronald,
No question whether that will work. BUT, remember that the lugs on your
sewer connection were never designed to support a heavy motor at the end of
a lever arm and with lanyard (hose) to yank on.
Back When, I had a macerator, water powered and very light weight, attached
that way. I'd just pulled the handle on 50 gallons of black water when the
mounting lugs on the macerator itself failed. A 3" geyser of black stuff
came gushing out. I was able to reach the valve quickly without taking a
bath, so only a fraction of the waste hit the ground.
I was lucky: I was alone at the family farm with 850 acres of privacy
protection and sandy soil. I'd just, for some reason, bought several
gallons of Chlorox. Later that evening we had a 3" rainfall.
In that case the manufacturer admitted problems with the device -- and he'd
designed and built the whole thing. Thetford, Camco, Valterra, etc.,
aren't going to defend the strength of their mounting lugs.
If I HAD to use that sort of arrangement, I'd mount the pump on a portable
platform to set on the ground, with a short 3" hose to the RV connection.
But I saved money by mounting it (actually one for gray and one for black)
on the GMC's frame.
