PACKING OF TANK AND CRATING INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION
Use care when packing the tank. The tank can be easily damaged by tools,
packing box nails, or other sharp objects.
NOTES
Tank will be packed in a close-fitting box or container. When tank is disassembled and
refolded, it is to be replaced in the original box or container.
Each tank is provided with suitable packing around the tank to prevent the tank fabric
from being damaged by contact with the inside of the box or container. When tank is
replaced in original box or container, the packing material is replaced around the tank in
the same manner as received.
1. Remove the pressure gage (2) from the tank (1).
2. Disconnect the hold down ratchets (3) and remove. Hang the loose ends of the belt over the sides of
the trailer.
3. Fold the tank (1) almost in half lengthwise. Lay the top fold of the tank (1) down approximately 1 foot
shorter than the bottom fold. The ends will be equal when the tank (1) is rolled.
4. Roll the tank (1) manually. It is necessary that the first roll of the tank (1) be circular and tight,
otherwise the tank will be difficult to roll and result in a larger tank package.
