1. Tank-drain handle
Open the valve to drain any unused material
from the tank and dispose of it according to
local codes and the material manufacturer's
instructions (
Figure 46 ). After draining, remove
the lynch pin on the bracket securing the drain
valve to the machine and let the valve rest on
the ground. This allows any residual material
in the line to drain.
