Also, there was a picture posted (somewhere) of the plastic tank remnants. I have been unable to locate said picture. Also, there were a few threads posted on CD, commenting on the FIRST safety post.
The safety bulletin suggests that the tank should not be stressed, and in our installation it is securely mounted to the board. However, As weight is not a problem on this test bench, I will build either a plywood or sheet metal cover plate.

Thanks once again for the safety tip!
