(f) Lay ground cloth (1) flat and press into trench.
(g) Position drain hose assembly (5) in trench. Make sure control valve (4 or 4.1) is positioned with
handwheel (3) or lever (3.1) pointing up.
(h) Lay water tank (2) flat and smooth out large wrinkles. Make sure drain hose assembly (5) extends
beyond tank edge and control valve (4 or 4.1) is accessible.
(i) Make sure control valve handwheel (3) or lever (3.1) is fully closed.
NOTE
Tanks manufactured by Bell-Avon have a vent pipe with a cam-lock fitting at the base (14 and 15).
Step (2) describes how to prepare these vent pipes. Tanks manufactured by Amfuel have a vent
pipe with a welded base (13.1). Step (3) describes how to prepare these vent pipes.
(2) If the tank has a cam-lock fitting (15) at the base of the vent pipe (13), prepare the vent pipe as follows:
(a) Remove dust cap (16) from vent fitting (15) located in the center of the water tank (2).
(b) Position vent pipe (13) over vent fitting (15). Push down on vent pipe and pull locking arms (14) in
toward coupling. Make sure coupling is securely connected.
(3) If the tank has a vent pipe (13.1) welded to the base, prepare the vent pipe as follows:
(a) Remove threaded dust cap (14.1) from vent pipe (13.1) located in the center of water tank (2).
(b) Install gasket (15.1) and threaded relief valve (16.1) onto vent pipe (13.1) and tighten.
NOTE
Either tank opening can be used as filler or discharge port.
(4) Install filler elbow (17) as follows:
(a) Remove dust cap (20) from filler fitting (19).
(b) Open locking arms (18) of filler elbow (17).
(c) Position elbow (17) coupling over filler fitting (19). Rotate elbow so that opening points toward
closest edge of water tank (2). Push elbow down onto fitting and pull locking arms (18) in toward
coupling. Make sure coupling is securely connected.
(5) Install discharge elbow (9) as follows:
(a) Remove dust cap (12) from discharge fitting (11).
(b) Open locking arms (10) on discharge elbow (9) coupling.
(c) Position female end of discharge elbow (9) over discharge fitting (11). Rotate elbow so that opening
points toward closest edge of tank (2). Push elbow down onto fitting and pull locking arms (10) in
toward elbow. Make sure coupling is securely connected.
