Setup Setup Charge Battery The RoadPak can be mounted in the front or rear of the vehicle bed as well as in any orientation desired. The base of the RoadPak is 39.5 in. x 49.5 in. (1.0m x 1.25m). If the battery is newly purchased or has not been used for a long time, charge it before you use it. Installing RoadLazer Into Vehicle ti16653a RoadLazer needs to be properly secured to prevent it from moving during transportation and operation.
Setup Filter Orientation After mounting and securing the RoadPak to the vehicle, position the filter assemblies as desired. 2. Tighten nut until the hitch insert bracket is pulled securely to the receiver and no play is seen between the two parts. 1. Use a hammer to loosen the large jam nut on the pump assembly. ti16785a 3. Install the height adjustment bracket (303) to the hitch insert bracket with bolts (312), washers (307), and nuts (315). Ensure the height adjustment bracket is installed level.

Setup 4. Install the height adjustment bracket (303) to the RoadPak mounting arms (304) with bolts (312), washers (307), and nuts (315). NOTE: It is recommended to bolt the mounting bracket through the bed of the vehicle to the frame of the vehicle. 315 312 307 ti16912a 303 ti16916a 5. Use wrench to tighten all bolts to lock into place (torque to 28 ft-lb). 6. Install stow-bracket (302) to height adjustment bracket (303). Locate the bottom of the stow-bracket 21 in. to 25 in.
Setup Wide Orientation 3. Install the height adjustment bracket to the RoadPak mounting arms (303). 315 312 307 303 ti16921a ti16657a 1. Bolt brackets (316) to the RoadPak in four locations with bolts (312), washers (307), and nuts (315). It is ideal to locate the brackets as far apart as possible to provide optimal support. The mounting location of the brackets will depend on where the RoadPak is mounted on the vehicle. 4. Use wrench to tighten all bolts to lock into place (torque to 28 ft-lb).
Setup 5. Install stow-bracket (302) to height adjustment bracket (303). Locate the bottom of the stow-bracket 21 in. to 25 in. (53cm - 63cm) from the ground. Ensure the stow-bracket is installed level. 1. To shorten the beam to 75.75 in. long, cut 12 in. from the end the beam towards the next hole on the beam. To shorten the beam to 60 in., cut 27.75 in. from the end of the beam towards the third hole as shown below. 27.75 in. 12 in. ti16960a ti16600a 302 2.
Setup 3. Attach the handle (702) to each end of the slide beam. Press the cotter pin (707) through the handle to hold it in place. Fasten nut (706) and bolt (705) through the slide beam on both ends to act as stops on the channel. 6. Lift gun arm to a vertical position and slide it over the stow bracket. 708 707 704 706 ti16422a 705 ti16662a 4. Route hoses for the gun arm before moving arm to prevent hoses from being pinched. 7.
Setup Hose Routing to Pumps and Tanks ti16548a 3A1214B 15
Setup Hose Routing Hose Connection 1. Pull slide beam out to one side of the vehicle. Pull gun arm out and lower it to make sure the hose bundle has been secured at the proper location to ensure full movement for the gun arm to move from one side to the other. Make adjustments to the hose clamp that secures the bundle as needed. 1. Install suction tubes to the RPS 2900 pump and route to paint drum. ti16445a ti16444a 2.
Setup 5. Install air hose to quick connect fitting on air tank. 2. Connect control cable to the junction box. Fasten cable to cable clamp for strain relief (S) on the connection. ti16914a ti16595a Electrical Cable Connections 1. Connect gun arm cable to the junction box. Fasten cable to cable clamp for strain relief (S) on the connection. ti16596a 3A1214B S S 3. Route the control cable to the cab of the vehicle without pinching the cable. Connect the cable to the control box.
Setup Install Front Pointer Instructions 1. Locate an area on the vehicle to mount the RoadPak pointer system that will allow the user to see the indicator rod from the driving position or with the help of the Road View Camera System. 5. Slide support bar (351) through brackets (355) and tighten fasteners to secure in place. 355 351 ti17000a 6. Assemble extension clamp to support bar. ti16408a ti16925a 2. If needed, drill two 9/16 in. holes in the desired location. 3.
Operation Operation Pressure Relief Procedure 4. Relieve hose pressure through guns. Use Programmable Skipline Controller to trigger each gun for at least 3 seconds each. INJECTION HAZARD The system pressure must be manually relieved to prevent the system from starting or spraying accidentally. Fluid under high pressure can be injected through the skin and cause serious injury.
Operation Air System Pressure Relief 1. Relieve air pressure in air tank by turning air valve to OPEN position. 2. Pull slide beam to left or right side of vehicle. Lock slide beam clamps. 3. Remove gun arm from upright stowed position, and slide to end of boom. Slowly lower gun arm, and lock into position with clamp. ti16961a EMERGENCY SHUT OFF To shut down the entire RoadLazer system, set POWER ON/OFF on the Programmable Skipline Controller to the OFF position.
Operation 3. Check engine oil level. Add SAE 10W-30 (summer) or 5W-20 (winter), if necessary. 9. Turn pump lever by guns clockwise 1/4 turn to OFF position. (cold) ti15953a ti16447a 4. Fill fuel tank. 10. Place suction tube and drain tube in grounded metal pail partially filled with flushing fluid. Attach ground wire to pail and to earth ground. 5. Check hydraulic oil level. Add only Graco Hydraulic Oil, ISO 46 169236 (5 gallon/18.9 liter) or 207428 (1 gallon/3.8 liter).
Operation Start Engine 2. Slowly turn pressure control clockwise until pump begins to stroke. Gasoline is extremely flammable and explosive under certain conditions. Fuel could spray from the fuel line connector when it is disconnected from engine. Fuel could come in contact with the hot muffler and cause fire or explosion. To reduce the risk of fire or explosion, always vent the fuel tank and allow engine muffler to cool before you disconnect the fuel line. 1.
Operation 6. When paint comes out of return lines, set hydraulic valve to OFF position. 6. Turn off guns with Programmable Skipline Controller. 7. Close all dump valves. Turn on Bead System 1. Turn bead system valve to ON position. ti16551a 8. Place return lines into paint drum. Prime Guns 1. Close air valve to pressurize air system. ti16549a ti16959a 2. Set desired bead tank pressure by turning regulator knob. 2. Open only spray gun ball valves corresponding to paint pumps or color used.
Operation Flushing the System 8. Turn on Programmable Skipline Controller. NOTE: Unit will not start until Controller is turned ON. 9. Start Engine as follows: a. Set Choke ON. 1. Perform Pressure Relief Procedure, see page 19. 2. Flush the system with compatible solvent. Check the system under pressure for leaks. If any are found, relieve the pressure, and repair the leaks. Pressurize the system again, and check for leaks. b. Set throttle. c. Turn key. d. After engine starts, set choke to OFF. e.
Operation 13. Open only spray gun ball valves corresponding to paint pumps or color used. NOTE: Never open both valves on the two-color gun at the same time. Paint color contamination could result. 14. Place empty pail under spray guns to catch drainage from spray guns. 15. Turn guns on with Programmable Skipline Controller. 16. Set hydraulic valves to ON position to activate pumps. 17. When water/solvent comes out of spray gun, set hydraulic valve to OFF position. 18.
Operation Securing Gun Arm for Transportation 5. Unlock two red-handled clamps and center the slide beam on the vehicle. NOTE: Never transport the RoadLazer while the paint gun ball valves are open, the system is under pressure, and the engine is running, as this could cause damage to components. 1. Unlock gun arm red-handled clamp on slide beam. ti16923a 6. Lock three red-handle clamps to secure the slide beam and gun arm. ti16425a 2. Lift gun arm up from ground, and push in to center of RoadLazer.
