• Breakaways for low hose units must be attached close to the nozzle end, where the hose

clamp of the retriever is attached between the breakaway and the pump/dispenser hose
outlet casting.

• An improper location of the hose clamp may prevent the hose breakaway from working

properly.

• Severe injury, death, or equipment damage may result from a vehicle drive-off where the

hose breakaway fails to operate properly.

Hose retrieval mechanisms must be operational or a trip hazard may occur.

Replacing Hoses

Do not use soft-wall hoses. They can cause the unit to register with the nozzle closed when the
nozzle hook is first raised. Always use UL-approved hoses designed for the fuel being
dispensed. Read and follow all safety precautions. Follow OSHA lockout/tagout procedures.

• Wear eye protection. Residual pressure and entrapped fuel may still be present

and may drain or spray while removing the parts.

• Fire and explosion could result in severe injury or death.

• Test and close the shear valves involved. Shut off power to the unit.

• Remove the parts slowly. Collect fuel in approved containers.

• Clean up all spills promptly.

WARNING

To replace a hose, proceed as follows:

1

On dispensers, close the shear valve (refer to

“Shear Valves”

on

page 6-70

). Check for proper

shear valve operation. Units may require multiple shear valve closures.

2

Shut off power to the unit and associated STPs. Multiple STP disconnects may be required.
Use OSHA lockout/tagout procedures.

3

Drain the nozzle and hose into an approved container.

4

Remove the nozzle, swivel, whip hose, and breakaway first and then, the hose clamp.

5

Wear eye protection as residual pressure may exist in the hose during disassembly

and may cause fuel spray.

WARNING

Remove the hose.
