Tank Lid Fill
Employ two persons for top fill; one to secure the hose at
the tank, the other to control a supply line shut-off valve.
These steps presume completion of step 1 through
step 5 on page 42.
Refer to Figure 29 and Figure 3 or Figure 4 on page 17 or 18
13. Close selector valve
(or set to PUMP; there is no
risk of material leakage through the boom until the
pump is operating).
14. Open both tank discharge valves
to the selector
valve, if cross-filling from one tank to the next is
desired.
15. Open the lid
of the tank to be filled.
The tank lid completely unscrews for a 7 in (18 cm)
opening.
16. Insert the supply hose.
17. Open the supply line valve. Monitor tank level. Fill to
desired level. Close supply valve.
18. Remove hose. Close and secure the tank lid. The lid
has twin threads. Make sure that both are evenly
engaged when tightening the lid, and that the lid is
fully seated.

Chemical Hazard - Tank Lid:
For top loading, wear gloves and any other protective
equipment indicated for any materials that have ever been
used in the tank (not just the materials recently loaded or
presently being loaded). Normal operations splash material on
the underside of the lid. It is likely to be coated with residues
that could be highly concentrated, whether dry, damp or wet.
Remove the lid slowly to avoid throwing off material toward
yourself.
