Preparing the product for use
3.1 Preparations for operation
Only perfectly working collecting tubs are to be used having ori-
ginal Vetter inflation fittings. Before being used, the chemical re-
sistance of the collecting tub is to be tested against the liquid or
substance to be collected.

Operating Instructions
4.1 Operation of the collection tubs with
compressed air
Lay out the collection tub at the required location. The ground
area must be free of any sharp-edged or pointed objects!
Inflation of pneumatic collection tub
Connect the pressure regulator with the knurled wheel on the
compressed air bottle. Close the hand wheel (3) of the pressure
regulator. Open the valve on the bottle (5). The manometer (1)
indicates the pressure in the bottle. Adjust the back-pressure to
approximately 10 bar (145 psi) using the adjustment wheel (4).
The set pressure can be checked on the back-pressure manome-
ter (2). Connect the air hose of the pressure regulator (6) with the
brass coupling (7) of the inflation connection. Open the pressure
regulator and start inflation. The pneumatic collection tub erects
automatically. The safety valve integrated into the support frame
avoids over-inflation (greater than 0.3 bar/4.35 psi). Close the
hand valve when the operating pressure is reached.
The Collecting tub is now ready for use.
4.2 Application of the pneumatic collecting
tub for trucks
Connect the inflation device as described before. Lay out the de-
flated truck collecting tub on even, smooth ground.
Remember! Sharp edged foreign bodies
beneath the collecting awning can cause
damage when driven over by the truck!
