Installation on the tank

Do not forget the gasket when
positioning the BM 700 on the tank
nozzle flange. Align BM 700 and gasket,
slightly tighten nuts on stud bolts (by
hand).

Press shielding strip C* in the gap
between tank and BM 700 flanges and
secure with strap retainer S* (both
items included with supply).

Strap retainer S* must fit closely and
overlap both flanges.

* only required for European radio approvals

Tighten down stud bolt nuts firmly. The
tightening torque is dependent upon the
strength properties of the stud bolts and
the pressure rating of the tank.




C* = shielding strip B = BM 700 flange
