Gas tight tubes
The tank must be fitted with a suitable combined valve, also referred to as a multi-valve (
).
Make sure the selected valve can be used with a given tank. Place a gas tight cover element underneath
the valve. The bolts securing the valve should be fitted diagonally. Subsequently, route the gas tubes
through cable conduit protection hoses and connect them to the multi-valve using suitable connections.
Electrical wires should be connected to the multi-valve according to the scheme. Subsequently, mount
the gas tight cover as well as the cable conduit protection hoses. Any leakages from the multi-valve must
be discharged out of the vehicle. For this purpose, the cable conduit protection hoses are tightly attached
to the sleeves installed in the orifices previously cut out in the bodywork (
). Such an outlet
must not be cut out in the inner wheel arch or another element, where it could be obstructed with mud
or snow, and must not be pointed to the exhaust (
). Vent tubes (cable conduit protection
hoses) should be as short as possible.
