INSTALLATION NOTES
Notes: 1) The GILBARCO CATLOW in-line breakaway must always be installed between two hose sections (for example, whip
and main hose).
2) On side hose connections, install the breakaway between the nozzle and the hose retractor (NFPA 30A 6.5.3). DO NOT
INSTALL THE BREAKAWAY ON THE DISPENSER SIDE OF THE HOSE RETRACTOR.
3) On an overhead hose connection, install the short section of whip hose, followed by the breakaway, hose, and nozzle.
4) ISBA Models are installed between the nozzle and the primary hose.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR IN-LINE and ISBA BREAKAWAYS
To install in-line breakaways, proceed as follows:
1. Isolate/turn OFF the dispenser and relieve the line pressure from the system by opening the nozzle and allowing the system to
drain into an approved metal container.
2. Observe the flow direction arrow on the breakaway and install with the flow arrows pointing towards the nozzle.
3. Use thread sealant recommended by UL for petroleum products on pipe thread connections, such as Gasoila E-Seal formulated
for E10 and E85.
4. Use oil or grease on straight or metric thread O-ring fittings, such as Waypure 68 Oil, Petroleum Jelly, E-Seal, Parker Super 
O-Lube. DO NOT USE TEFLON TAPE.

5. Tighten hoses using the hex on the breakaway that is adjacent to the hose being installed (see examples 1 and 2).

Applying torque simultaneously to both ends of the breakaway may cause the breakaway to separate or
damage the anti-rotation pins.
6. Activate/turn the dispenser ON and purge the hoses and nozzles of air into an approved metal container.
7. Check the system for leaks and replace any item that exhibits signs of leakage.
Notes: 1) Use only UL-listed paste type thread sealant, such as Gasoila E-Seal formulated for E10 and E85.
2) Hoses should not be long enough that a vehicle could drive over the hose resulting in a direct pull on the retractor cable
or dispenser and bypass the breakaway.
