❒ An installation opening remaining to be made in the tank at a suitable point for supply level measurement or at an in-
stallation flange or installation opening already provided by the tank manufacturer.
❒ If an installation opening must be made, the tank must be completely drained first. Fill the fuel into an approved contai-
ner.
❒ Risk of explosion exists due to presence of residual gases in the tank! Make sure that the tank is aired
sufficiently (approx. 10 minutes).
❒ Make a preliminary hole in the installation opening using a drill and then finish the hole using a compass saw or piercing
saw. Comply with the safety instructions of the tool manufacturer. Clean the tank of residue from the drilling or sawing
work.
❒ The safety instructions given by the welding equipment manufacturer and the working regulations applying to welding
work must be respected when welding the tank flange.
