4.8 CHANGING OFFSET OF CRANK HANDLE

When equipped with a crank handle, two offset positions are available to adjust
the swing radius of the crank and knob as shown in fi gure 4.10. The longer
offset position offers reduced effort to operate the valve. The shorter offset
is available to avoid interference with other equipment on the apparatus. To
change the offset, remove two 3/8"-16 x 1-1/2 button head cap screws from
crank. Place crank in desired position and replace screws.
4.9 CHANGING COUPLING LOCK-OUT
To change a coupling from rigid to full time swivel, use a 7/32" Allen driver to
back out the lockout screw until the coupling moves freely.
To change a coupling from full time swivel to rigid, fi rst align the pull pin in
the elbow to vertical. Rotate the coupling until the lockout screw is aligned
with the pull pin. Use a 7/32" Allen driver to tighten the lockout screw into the
lockout divot in the elbow.

5.0 USE

5.1 INTAKE ELBOW

The intake elbow swivels 360 degrees to help prevent hose kinks, and make connection of suction lines easier. The intake can be
turned forward or backward to help make connections in tight places if the water supply is in front of or behind the truck. To turn the
elbow, pull the shot pin knob on top of the elbow. The elbow will lock into a detent every 45 degrees. There is a hole on the side of
the elbow that can be used to attach the lanyard or chain of a cap by use of a key ring . The elbow may be swivelled to any of eight
positions by pulling the shot pin knob.

5.2 VALVE POSITION INDICATOR

To open the valve turn the handwheel until the valve position says "OPEN". To close the valve
turn the hand wheel the opposite way until the valve position indicator says "CLOSED".
