when service is doubtful.
(5) Ensure that vent hole in the relief valve is
clear.
c. Reassembly.
(1) Place preformed packing (5, fig. B-1) into
the packing groove in the tank fitting.
(2) Place flanged adapter (4) on the tank fit-
ting Rotate flange so the holes in the flange are in
line with the tapped holes in the fitting. Assemble
screws (2) through the washers (3) and through the
holes in the flange and into tapped holes in the tank
fitting. Tighten to 30 inch-pounds.
(3) Insert vent pipe (9) into quick disconnect
coupling (1) and turn pipe in clockwise direction
until the two pieces are jointed together tightly.
(4) Insert flame arrestor (8) into relief cap (6)
and turn flame arrestor in a clockwise direction
until the two pieces are jointed together tightly.
(5) Place relief cap gasket (7) over flame ar-
restor and seat it inside the relief cap.
(6) Place flame arrestor (8) into vent pipe (9)
until vent pipe contacts the relief cap (6). Rotate re-
lief cap in a clockwise direction until vent pipe and
relief cap are joined together tightly.
(7) Insert quick disconnect coupling gasket
(10) into the female quick disconnect coupling (1).
(8) Ensure that the cam-lever arms of the
quick disconnect coupling are in an outward posi-
tion. Place coupling (with 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 attached)
onto flanged coupling (4), Pull the cam-lever arms
inward until they are locked in place.
(9) Insert dust cap gasket (11) into dust cap
(12).
3-7. Filler and Discharge Assembly (All Tanks).
a. Disassembly.
(1) Remove 4-inch elbow, (1, fig. B-2.), by pull-
ing outward on the cam-lever arms. Lift elbow off
the flanged adapter (11).
(2) Remove elbow gasket (2) from inside of
elbow (1).
(3) Remove screws (3) and washers (4) and
lift oval closure plate (5) from the collapsible tank
fitting.
(4) Lift preformed packing(6) from inside the
packing groove in the tank fitting.
(5) Remove screws (7), nuts (8), and 1ock-
washers (9) from remaining assembly, thereby re-
leasing the suction stub (13) from the bottom of the
closure plate (5).
(6) Remove dust cap gasket (14) from inside
of dust cap (15).
b. Cleaning and Inspection.
W A R N I N G
Drycleaning solvent, P-D-68, used to
clean parts is potentially dangerous to
personnel and property. Avoid re-
peated and prolonged skin contact.
Do not use near open flame or exces-
sive heat. Flash point of solvent is 100
degrees F -138 degrees F (38 degrees C
-59 degrees C)
(2) Clean all parts with cleaning solvent
(Item 1, App. F) and dry thoroughly.
(2) Clean out packing grooves thoroughly
(3) Inspect all mechanical parts for cracks,
dents, breaks, or wear. Replace or repair, if un-
serviceable.
(4) Carefully inspect gaskets and packings for
deterioration, distortion, cracks, or breaks. Replace
when serviceability is doubtful.
c. Reassembly.
(1) Place dust cap gasket (14, fig. B-2) into
dust cap (15).
(2) Place elbow gasket (2) into elbow (1).
(3) Place suction stub (13) on a flat hard sur-
face with the bolt holes on top.
(4) Place thread seals (10) over each bolt hole
in suction stub (13).
(5) Place oval closure plate (5) on top of
thread seals (10) being careful to keep all holes
aligned.
(6) Place flanged adapter gasket (12) on oval
closure plate (5) and align the holes.
(7) Place flanged adapter (11) on flange gas-
ket (12) and align the holes.
(8) Insert the 3/8-16 x 1 1/2 long screws (7)
through the holes in (13, 10, 5, 12 and 11.)
(9) Assemble lockwashers (9) and nuts (8) to
screws (7) and tighten to 30 inch-pounds.
(10) Place preformed packing (6) into the
packing groove in collapsible tank fitting.
(11) Place the oval closure plate and its at-
tached components onto tank by putting the suction
stub through the oval opening in the tank until oval
closure plate (5) comes in contact with tank fitting.
If the tank is laying completely flat, it will be neces-
sary to lift the tank up to the closure plate in order
