How To Correctly Perform Self-Service Refilling At The LPG Auto-Gas Station

In some country, you can be allowed to do self-service refilling at gas stations. However, it is always recommended that only skilled person must work on gas circuits. Gas leaks may cause fatal fires or explosions. Gas can spout during operation.

SPOUT: A stream of liquid coming out from the connection between gun (refilling nozzle). 

A suitable and compatible adaptor is connected to the filling gun where you can connect directly to your LPG powered vehicle.

However in most cases, on rare occasions, you may not even actually begin to refill your tank when LPG will begin to spout out of the adaptor and all over your hand, it may go. 

If you find yourself in this kind of situation, it may obviously be what's left under pressure in the gas pump filler hose. Anyways, quickly remove the gun (filling nozzle) from the cylinder bottle, and reconnect again. Things could have gone back to normal. If not, call your dealer for demonstration. All gas leaks, however small, are dangerous and must be eliminated. On cylinder bottles, if a leak is suspected, turn off gas supply immediately. Do not use electrical devices, and do not use the telephone during operation.

This just proves how easy it is to have an accident with LPG gas even if you try your utmost to be careful. Before you begin self-service refilling, after connecting the filling gun, don't just open the valve immediately. Open little by little, and make sure that the inlet and outlet of the adapter are correct and suitable for the valve and the application.
