A. The official seal placed on pumps or other measuring devices by a
representative of the Office of Licensing shall not be removed, defaced
or obscured.
B. The security seal attached to the meter adjustment shall remain unbroken,
except that a licensed repairman may break the City seal to make necessary
repairs or recalibrations, provided that notice has been received
by the Office of Licensing that said seal will be broken for the purpose
of repairs. Immediately upon the completion of repair, the licensed

identification. The repairman shall then notify the Office of Licensing,
in writing, of the completion of such repairs.
A retail petroleum product device of the meter type shall be

automatic interlock will prevent a subsequent delivery being started
until the indicating elements have been returned to their correct
zero positions.
A sign in red letters at least one inch high shall be placed
over the dial face of any pump which is not in proper working order.
The delivery hose must be disconnected therefrom. The sign shall read
as follows: "This pump is out of order."
It shall be a violation of these rules and regulations for any
person, firm or corporation to make any sale from a pump which has
a broken interlock.
