C4000-OM-EN-08
Trucks equipped with exchangeable fuel containers should ALWAYS
ensure that the service valve on the container is closed and all gas
in the connecting hoses used BEFORE disconnecting the quick
release coupling.
All reserve containers should be stored with the service valves
closed and on racks arranged such that the container is in the same
relative position as when installed on the truck.
Careless handling of gas containers can result in serious accidents.
Extreme care should be exercised at all times when transporting
containers to ensure that they are not dropped or damaged.
Containers should always be transported in the vertical position to
ensure that the pressure within the container is in the form of vapour,
not liquid.
Damage such as dents, scrapes or gouges in the container may
materially weaken the structure of the container and render it unsafe
for use.
All containers should be checked regularly for dents, scrapes and
gouges in the pressure vessel section.
Also Check for:
Damage to the various valves and the liquid level gauge.
Debris in the relief valve.
Deterioration, damage or loss of flexible seals in the filling or
Servicing connections.
Indications of leakage at valves or threaded connections i.e.
Signs of frost on fittings and hoses usually signify a leak.
Any defective or damaged container should be removed from
service immediately.
Any leaking container should be moved immediately to a safe
distance from the truck, free from all ignition leaks.
