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
About Hanging Hardware
Hanging hardware is the component that is attached to the outlet casting. This includes hoses,
nozzles, swivels, spacer hose, and breakaways. The hanging hardware is tested for leaks and
electrical continuity. The hanging hardware may be manufactured by companies other than
Gasboy. Ensure that you follow all manufacturer’s recommendations.
DEF units require special hanging hardware that
is compatible with DEF fluid. Do not use
stand
ard gasoline or diesel hardware for DEF units.
Hoses and Flow Restrictors
This section explains about the hoses and flow restrictors.
Inspecting Hoses
Check hoses regularly (at least once a week or on complaint) for leaks and damage. Inspect
and replace the hose assembly, as required. Following conditions may contribute to damage or
problems:
Twisting and curling puts unusual stress on hose parts.
Repeated flexing of the hose in the same spot can cut,
tear, or split the hose cover.
Flattened hoses from vehicle drive-over can cause rest
ricted flow and hose reinforcement
damage.
A soft spot is a sign of internal damage to the hose
reinforcement. Reinforcement may
appear through the cover.
Loose or cracked hose couplings can cause
fuel spills.
Hose bulges are a sign of pressurized gasoline push
ing against the cover. A full rupture
could occur at any time.
Use of Teflon tape for NPT hose ends may result in
damage to the dispenser outlet casting
during assembly.
Reuseable hose end couples are generally not recommen
ded as improper repair/assembly
can cause leaks, lack of continuity, or hose separation.
Use of excessively long hoses may create a trip haza
rd for customers. Use hose retrievers,
hose reels and so on, to eliminate trip hazards.
