🛠️ Operation & Specifications
How to Load Asphalt into an Asphalt Tanker Trailer？
Safe and efficient loading requires proper preparation:
Position the trailer on a level, stable surface near the asphalt mixing station.
Connect high-temperature-resistant hoses from the asphalt discharge pipe to the trailer inlet.
Secure all connections and start the pump or gravity feed, monitoring temperature and flow rate to avoid overheating or overfilling.
Once full, close all valves tightly and disconnect hoses.
Inspect pressure relief valves, safety vents, and seals before transport.
Following these steps ensures efficient, safe, and clean asphalt loading while maintaining optimal transport conditions.
