Warning: Dee Zee Transfer Tanks are NOT to be used to transport flammable
liquids such as gasoline. This tank is manufactured for private use only and
does NOT meet title 49 of the United States Federal Register governing
transportation.
Please check for wiring or other obstructions before drilling any holes in the
vehicle. If it is necessary to drill any holes, Dee Zee recommends putting a
sealant or rust inhibitory around all holes drilled into the body of the
vehicle.
Warning: Before filling the transfer tank with fluid, visually inspect all exterior surfaces for damage. If damage has occurred, do NOT use the tank unless it is first tested for breaches with a harmless fluid such as water.
Threaded Bung: The transfer tank must be vented at all times for expansion and to prevent vacuum formation during liquid removal or pumping. Coat threads with an acceptable thread sealing compound such as LA-CO Slic- tite Paste with Teflon. The screw-threaded portion to prevent fill cap assembly into desired flange. Install the prevent cap on threaded casting, press down, and turn clockwise past the intermediate stop to the last stop. To remove the cap, turn it slowly counter-clockwise to the intermediate stop. After all pressure is relieved, push down and turn counter-clockwise and lift to remove.
Aluminum: When adding a steel pump to an aluminum tank, make sure the
threads on the pump are clean and undamaged. Since aluminum is softer than
steel, the pump will strip the threads in the tank if it’s not installed with
caution.
Steel: It is recommended to keep steel transfer tanks half full with
liquid at all times. The fluid keeps the interior surface lubricated to help
reduce internal corrosion risks.

transfer tanks need to be cleaned regularly with a mild detergent. Do NOT use
abrasive cleaners.

Using a marker, mark the hole location in the four tank attachment points.
Check the underside of the truck bed below the marked locations for
clearance. If something is in the way of the marked location, shift the tank
to avoid the obstruction.
Remove the tank from the truck bed, and drill a 3/8″ hole at each of the
marked locations. Check with manufacturer/body shop for recommendations for
sealing drilled holes.
After drilling the holes, return the tank to the truck bed and align the
tank mounting locations with the holes in the truck bed.
Depending on when your tank was made, it may be necessary to drill 3/8″ holes
through the four tank mounting points also.
At the mounting two locations towards the REAR of the tank only, place a 5/16″
bolt [B] and 5/16″ washer [C] down through the mounting location hole. From
the underside of the truck place a rubber bumper [E], 5/16″ washer [C], and
5/16″ lock nut [D] onto the bolt.
DO NOT COMPLETELY TIGHTEN AT THIS TIME.
Replace the chest box on to the tank and align the slot in the brace with the hole in the mounting points on the sides of the tank.
At the side mounting locations, place a 5/16″ bolt [B] and 5/16″ washer [C] down through the mounting location hole. From the underside of the truck place a rubber bumper [E], 5/16″ washer [C], and 5/16″ lock nut [D] onto the bolt.
FOR ALL FOUR MOUNTING LOCATIONS
Tighten the nut and bolt using a 1/2″ socket and wrench until the rubber
bumper comes into contact with the underside of the truck bed. Grab the rubber
bumper and try to rotate it around the bolt. If the rubber bumper can still
rotate on the bolt, continue to tighten the nut until the rubber bumper can no
longer be turned by hand. Once the rubber bumper can no longer be turned by
hand, tighten the nut one additional 360-degree turn.
