What is this ?

Picked up my used 2018 octane 222 today. Noticed this thing moving on the roof like a weather vane. It looks like an upside down boat lower outdrive. Just behind the vent in the picture, and straight up from side vent. If you know, what should I do with/about it ? I also found 2 wrenches,1 for the stabilizers and a smaller one looks like it fits 1/2 inch nut .

Your black tank vent with a device to help remove the smell. Never tried one myself.

Looks like your trailer is in a crash dive!

It is called a Cyclone. the wind hits the point of it and passes over it and uses Vacuum ti pull the smell out of the tanks. I have had them on all my trailers and never had any smell whatsoever.
