Make sure Center pumps (L&R) are ON;
OPEN cross-feed valves for tanks no. 1 and 4;
Turn OFF pumps 'F' and 'A' of the tanks no.1 and no.4;
Wait for PRESSURE DROP a little bit and fuel will flow from center to those tanks;
Leave roughly LESS fuel than in tanks no. 2 and 3, so the tip of the wings won't get heavier.

Once the desired quantity has flowed:
Turn ON all 'F' and 'A' pumps;
CLOSE cross-feed valves.

This procedure is the same for any tank, except for reserve tanks, which flow automatically (by gravity) to tanks no. 1 and 4 as soon as cross-feed valves are opened.

The procedure to transfer fuel from one tank to anoither is:

- Open flow turning valve positions for target tank.
- Turn off target tank's Bust pumps

when finsh:

- Turn on target tank's Bust pumps
- Close flow turning valve positions for target tank.
