Behind the fuelling machine snout is a rotating magazine, much like a revolver barrel. A tool in each fuelling machine, the ram assembly, removes the closure plug and the shield plug before fuelling starts. The magazine stores the plugs during fuelling.

Derrière le bec de la machine, on trouve un barillet rotatif percé de chambres et analogue au barillet d'un revolver. Chaque machine est dotée d'un outil, le ringard qui permet de retirer la plaque d'obturation et le bouchon d'extrémité avant l'avitaillement du réacteur. Pendant cette opération, le barillet conserve la plaque et le bouchon.
