TRANSFER FUELING (DEFUELING) MODES,
COMPONENTS AND PROCEDURES
(CONTINUED)
1. Defueling to Another Vehicle (Continued)
f. Connect the hose's fueling nozzle to the NGV1
fueling receptacle on the receiving (fueling)
vehicle.
g. Turn the defueling control valve on the supplying
(defueling) vehicle to "Defueling Enabled". This
will initiate the flow of CNG fuel from the supplying
vehicle to the receiving vehicle.
h. To stop the flow of CNG fuel, turn the Defueling
Control Valve to the "Normal Operation" position.
This will stop the flow of CNG fuel and vent the
pressure in the defueling hose so that it can be
disconnected. If the supplying vehicle is not
equipped with a defueling control valve which
automatically vents the pressure in the hose when
the flow of CNG fuel is stopped, then the purge
valve must be used to vent the hose, allowing
disconnection of the hose from the receptacle.
2. Atmospheric Venting Method

in your area. There could be local environmental
