VR6000, VR6200 and VR6000 Drop Elbows

This elbow is designed for use with vapor 4" top seal service station
adapters. To properly operate and maintain your Dixon Bayco
VR6500, VR6200 or VR6000 series elbow the following instructions
are provided. Please read with care as improper handling or
maintenance may cause a hazardous condition.
Do not modify your Dixon Bayco VR6500, VR6500 or
VR6000 series elbow for any reason. It can result in a hazardous
condition due to operating difficulties or operation malfunction.
Disassembly or tampering will void the product warranty.
Never smoke or allow an open flame near your dispenser
when handling volatile materials such as gasoline and fuels. An
explosion could result. Remember safety is everyone’s
business.
Installation
1. Attach the mating inlet using the four socket head cap screws and
lock washers supplied.
2. Coat cap screws with anti-seize compound.
Lubricate Stem
This product has been assembled with anti-seize compound and
lubricated for easy maintenance and trouble-free service. However,
we recommend lubricating the stem through the grease nipple using
lithium based or quality automotive type grease prior to service. It is
recommended to apply lubricant to grease nipple, cam arm bearings,
and other moving parts every month. Monthly inspection and
lubrication become mandatory for items that are seldom used.
Condensation, rain and road salts can cause corrosion build-up and
binding when product not in use.

Check Operation
VR6500 / VR6200 elbow
1. Place elbow bottom end on service station adapter (elbow is
designed for use with vapor 4" top seal adapter only). Move operating
handle to the 11 o’clock open/unclamped position.
2. Release and hold the safety latch if equipped with one. Move the
handle clockwise to 2 o’clock position for full clamping (lever cannot
be moved any farther).
3. Check locking arms on adapter. If the elbow is fitted with a safety
latch, make sure the stem pin is in the latch notch, preventing
movement of operating handle. Release by moving handle to 11
o’clock. If fitted with safety latch, lift the latch lever and operating
lever at the same time.
VR6000 elbow with D-handle
1. Place elbow bottom end on service station adapter. Pulling on D-
handle is not necessary, coupler mechanism is self-engaging; simply
push elbow vertically down onto service station adapter until locking
arms pop in.
2. Now push down on handle to ensure full clamping (handle cannot
be moved any farther).
3. Check locking arms on adapter. Release by pulling on handle until
locking arms disengage.
Care and Handling
Dixon Bayco drop elbows are tested at the factory and are in proper
working condition when shipped. Drop elbows are designed to be
tough and to provide long service with reasonable care and handling.
To ensure long service, Dixon Bayco elbows should not be thrown,
dropped or dragged; such actions may compromise the integrity and
reduce the service life of the product.

Inspection
Drop elbows can fail to operate if not properly maintained. If the
VR6500 / VR6200 / VR6000 elbow develops any problems, remove
from service and contact your Bayco distributor describing the
difficulty. The distributor will provide further instructions for repair and
warranty of the product.
Elbows should be inspected monthly. Check the adapter-to-elbow O-
ring seal and the flange where the base is attached to the elbow body
for any signs of leakage. Change seals if necessary. Check and
tighten all fasteners periodically. Lubricate the lever stem. Check the
bushings and replace if cracked or worn, and change if required.
Check operation as per above.
Regularly replace bushings. Some Bayco elbows contain polymer
bushings, which protect and extend service life of bronze locking
arms. The bushings are designed to wear (instead of bronze arms)
and should be replaced every few months. Operators must be
encouraged to inspect and replace polymer bushings to obtain
maximum elbow performance and longevity.
Optional Accessories
The following are available as optional accessories for VR6200 and
VR6000 elbows:
Safety Latch Kit #6200SLK (VR6200 only)
Installation instructions are included with the items when ordered for
retrofit.
