MAINTENANCE
The ESX will provide many years of reliable service if properly maintained. The following checklist
will ensure that the ESX will run at peak efficiency and present an image to your customers that
your shop performs high tech fuel system cleaning services.
1.
Use tool tray for storage of tools and adapters only.
2.
Keep the exterior surface clean. Use a mild all purpose cleaner to wipe fuel and dirt off the
cabinet.
3.
Do not allow the unit to sit outside in direct sunlight or inclement weather. Excessive exposure
to sunlight or moisture will cause serious damage and will void the warranty.
4.
Periodically check all internal (by lifting out the tool tray) and external hoses for leaks or
excessive wear. Any weak hoses should be replaced immediately to avoid possible injury.
5.
Check air pressure in rear tires periodically (should be 30 psi), add air if needed.

container.
