INSTRUCTION FOR USAGE:

1.  Ensure that the IBC placard is fitted to all sides with the correct U.N Number, “Flammable Liquid    Class 

3- Hazardous Diamond” and the proper shipping name. 

2.  Ensure that the driver has adequate instruction and training in IBC contents.
3.  Ensure driver has appropriate training licence on him or her if required.
1.  Ensure documents and retest and Inspection Form included with the tank are carried.
2.  Always follow the local or federal road regulations when transporting.
3.  Do not allow riders on trailer. 
4.  Ensure that the DT1 is in good condition and that the certification period has not expired.
5.  Ensure that all valves are switched off when not in use and being transported.
6.  Take precautions not to spill any fuel on the ground or within the tank at all times when filling DT1 or 

dispensing fuel.

TO FILL TANK

1.  Open filler cap slowly to relieve pressure (and vent cap if fitted), and fill with nozzle only. DO NOT 

HARD CONNECT.

2.  Watch for level on gauge.
3.  When full or adequate amount required, screw the cap in place. Note: Tighten fill cap by hand and then 

tighten 1/4 turn to minimize the chance of leakage.

DISPENSING FUEL:

1.  Ensure dispensing nozzle is held while your pump is in use.
2.  When finished, ensure nozzle and hose are put back in the pump cabinet. The pump and  nozzle must 

be switched off.

If generator, feed and return line are required, fit your choice of quick couplers to the designated points and 

pass hoses through the access slot on the sides of the cabinet so that it remains lockable. It is important to 

use the correct filter to match your diesel engine.
