Attach Drain Hoses, Valves and Fittings

NOTE

If equipped with drain ball valves, perform steps 1, 2, 4, 5, 6 and 8.

If equipped with drain gate valves, perform steps 1, 3, 4, 5, 7 and 9.

1. When attaching drain hoses (1 or 2) to drain or fitting assemblies (3), wrap the male threads of drain

hoses (1 or 2) with three or four layers of antiseize tape to ensure a positive seal.

2. Remove drain ball valves (4) from drain hoses (1), if attached, by unscrewing drain ball valves (4)

from hoses (1).

3. Remove drain gate valves (5) from drain hoses (2), if attached, by unscrewing drain gate valves (5)

from hoses (2).

4. Fold tank back to access drain plug (6).

5. Remove drain plug (6) from each drain or fitting assembly (3) and attach a drain hose (1 or 2) to each

drain fitting assembly (3) by screwing in hose (1 or 2).

6. Unfold tank ends to lie flat in original position. Hoses (1 or 2) should extend from the bottom of tank.

7. Wrap the male threads of drain hoses (1) with three or four layers of antiseize tape to ensure a

positive seal.

8. Screw ball valves (4) clockwise on hoses (1). For model GTA-210KF connect female end of quick-

disconnect of ball valves (4) to male end of hoses (1). Ensure the ball valves (4) are closed (with

handle pulled out and away from the valve) and dust caps (7) are installed.

CAUTION

The cam lever arms on hose coupling halves should be safety wired in the

closed position to prevent valves and hoses from separating when the tank

is full of fuel. Use .010 inch stainless steel safety wire.

NOTE

Close both lever arms at the same time to prevent misalignment of mating parts

and ensure the lever arms close properly.
