Seats and backrests <br />shall be at least 35.5 cm x 35.5 cm (14 inches x 14 inches) <br />in size. All occupants shall be seated, shall wear seat <br />belts and shall not cook or prepare food while the vehicle <br />is in motion. Signs setting forth the latter three (3) <br />requirments shall be posted in both English and Spanish. <br /> <br /> (h) A first aid kit approved by the Health Officer <br />shall be provided and located in a convenient area in an <br />enclosed case. <br /> <br /> (i) Ail pressure cylinders shall be securely <br />fastened to a rigid structure of the vehicle. Ail liquefied <br />petroleum, gas (LPG) equipment shall be installed as follows: <br /> <br /> (1) The LP-gas tanks and relief valves shall <br />be ASME-approved for intended use. <br /> <br /> (2) Tanks shall be securely fastened and <br />located where they will normally not be subject to <br />damage. They may be in a body compartment or underneath <br />the body. The tank or fittings must not protrude <br />beyond the body. <br /> <br /> (3) Tanks and regulators shall be separated <br />from any open flame by a vapor-tight partition. <br /> <br /> (4) When tanks are installed in a body com- <br />partment, the partitions shall be sealed off from the <br />rest of the body with no openings to the interior <br />except for the tubing. The following additional re- <br />quirements shall be met: <br /> <br /> a. Ail tank valves and fitting shall be <br />readily accessible from outside the vehicle. <br /> <br /> b. The tank safety relief valve shall be <br />vented to the outside and directed downward. <br /> <br /> c. The filling shall be done through an <br />outside door to the compartment. <br /> <br /> d. The compartment shall be vented to the <br />exterior of the vehicle so as to prevent accumu- <br />lation of gas. <br /> <br /> (5) Tubing that passes through partitions <br />shall be protected by grommets made of rubber or other <br />approved materials. <br /> <br /> (6) Tubing exposed to friction shall be pro- <br />tected against chafing. <br /> <br /> (7) Expansion and contraction bends shall be <br />made in the tubing between the tank and the appliance. <br /> <br /> (8) ASME-approved LP-gas tubing or standard <br />weight pipe shall be used throughout. <br /> <br /> (9) Protective "thread" caps shall be in- <br />stalled on fill-line check valves. <br /> <br /> <br />
