Hi Dave,

NO NO NO NO NO lol

You have a 1000lt un baffled tank strapped down by only 2 ratchet straps, which by the look of it are only 2 ton straps.

Now correct me if I am wrong, that is an eBay sale, item number
4439668729 
 

Many Thanks

Andrew

i saw that , this is the problem!

loads of cleaners are going wfp and buying systems off ebay or off friends etc without looking at safety issues i had a transporter with a 650 ibc in when i started out , it was bolted through the floor but it was not baffled and when you stop the van just kept going, also the amount of rocking , felt as if you were ona bouncy castle. that van is a accident waiting to happen.

can someone tell me where to get info regarding securing a 650 ltr tank there doesnt seem to be any info out there about how they should be secured. some of the wfp suppliers suggest using a cple of straps but im not sure this would be adequate.
help please

no way is that safe.

ive 650ltr baffeled tank bolted through the floor.

i would not do 70mph with mine, half a ton behind me, i wont to live.

no baffels & straped, forget it.

im 99% sure you will find its over weight fully loaded.
