Installation
1. Inspect elbow for missing or damaged parts, make sure the seal
(item 4) is in place.
2. Remove any obstructions from the manhole before removing filler cap and connecting the elbow.
3. Securely fasten the elbow to the adapter in the manhole before connecting hoses.
4. Check that the vapor and liquid hose connections have seals in place and then couple hoses to elbow.
To Couple
1. Firmly push the handle bar (item 6) vertically down onto service station adapter until locking arms pop in and ensure full clamping
(handle bar cannot be moved any farther).
2. Check locking arms (item 2) on adapter.
To Uncouple
1. Push down the handle bar (item 6) and then squeeze the handle bar (item 6) and the lift handle (item 3) until locking arms (item 2) disengage.
Failure to have hoses connected can cause product spillage or vapor loss resulting in a potential fire or explosion, or water or soil pollution.
Do not activate system until all connections are coupled.
Do not put your figures between the handle bar (item 6) and the lift handle (item 3).
Care and Handling
Dixon Bayco vapor elbows are tested at the factory and are in proper working condition when shipped. Vapor elbows are designed to be tough and to provide long service with reasonable care and handling.
To ensure long service, Dixon Bayco elbows should not be thrown, dropped or dragged; such actions may compromise the integrity and reduce the service life of the product.

Inspection
Drop elbows can fail to operate if not properly maintained. If the
VR6100 vapor elbow develops any problems, remove from service and contact your Dixon Bayco distributor describing the difficulty. The distributor will provide further instructions for repair and warranty of the product.
Elbows should be inspected monthly. Check the adapter-to-elbow Oring seal (item 20) and the flange where the base is attached to the elbow body for any signs of leakage. Check and tighten all fasteners periodically. Check the seal (item 4), cams (item 2) and the lift handle
(item 3) periodically. Change parts if necessary.
In the event you are splashed, remove all wetted clothing immediately. Do not go into an enclosed area, and stay away from ignition sources.
