Good afternoon,

Today we had repairs completed on the SCBA refilling station. A couple  
of reminders for safe handling and care of the refill station:

1. Please ensure that the base located at the bottom of the drum for  
each bank is turned to "2" when refilling 45 min bottles. This should  
be considered the typical operational setting for the machine, for our  
uses.

2. For any banks that are not in use, and after completing SCBA  
filling, please ensure that the fill valve connectors are stored in  
the proper storage areas. This helps to ensure they will not be  
impinged upon when shutting the door.

3. Never attempt to force the access door shut or pry the access door  
open. If you are having issues with the fill station, please seek out  
assistance. The door should shut flush if closed appropriately. Please  
shut the fill station door when filling is complete.

I have attached pictures for reference. These steps will help to  
ensure the longevity of the system and limit the need for service  
related calls.

V/R,
Ethan
