6.2 Storage
Prior to storage remove all product from tanks and fill auger. As well, ensure that
the meters are emptied. If liquid tanks are equipped, purge all lines and add
antifreeze where necessary to avoid damage to liquid system caused by freezing.
NOTE: Failure to remove product prior to storage will greatly increase the
rate of corrosion in the tanks and meter.
