Red Dragon: Incorrect Installation of Chute Locking Nuts
Jul 26 2010
Details:
Several incidents have occurred when an operator incorrectly installed the outlet chute to the injection head. The gold nuts were left on the chute screws on the inside of the head and the black nuts on the outside. This action caused the chute to be offset inboard and blocked the primed spheres from exiting the dispenser.

Several operators have reported dripping from the water nozzles after a water test. An investigation has determined that the nozzle check valves are prone to sticking in the open position due to particulate contamination in the water.

Failure to do so may prevent opening of the gates.
