8.0 MAINTENANCE
It is essential that the sprayer be cleaned on a daily basis. Parts that fail due to
improper cleaning will not be warranted. Use the following steps as a guide to proper
cleaning and maintenance.
8.1 Sprayer
1. Place the suction hose into a container that has been filled with a solvent
recommended by the compound manufacturer to clean spraying equipment
after use.
2. Place the return hose in an empty container the same size, or larger than the
one with the cleaning agent.
3. Turn the bypass valve to the on position and start the engine. Allow the
cleaning agent to run through the pump for 2-3 minutes.
4. Turn the bypass valve to the off position and spray wand to the on position.
Allow the want to spray into the empty container for about 20 seconds. This
procedure may need to be repeated several times to insure that the pump and
spray wand are clean.
5. Check the procedures for cleaning provided by the solvent manufacturer.
Some cleaning solvents require that they be flushed out with water after they
are used. If this is the case, we recommend that a small amount of form oil or
diesel fuel be used AFTER using water. This will prevent the internal
components of the pump from seizing, due to the formation of rust on the
pump internals.
6. Disconnect all the hoses and allow all the liquid to drain from the lines.
7. As you begin your next spraying operation, spray a small amount of compound
through the lines and into an empty container. This will clear any remaining
water or solvent before it is mixed with the regular spraying compound.
8.2 Engine
Refer to engine owner’s manual for specific information regarding maintenance.
Check the oil level in your engine prior to start up and then every 10 hours of
operation. Maintain the proper levels at all times.
Drain oil after every 50 hours or operation and refill with grade of oil as
recommended in the engine owner’s manual.
Above 40 Deg. F (13 Deg. C)- S. A. E. 30
Below 40 Deg. F (13 Deg. C)- S. A. E. 20
Cold Weather Note:
In climates where temperatures are below 35 Deg. F, hard starting may occur. In
these cases the oil should be switched to a thinner 15 weight hydraulic fluid.
