MAINTENANCE 
PROCEDURES 
To ensure safe, dependable operation of the equipment, follow the 
maintenance schedule detailed below: 
 
 
 
DAILY
Cleaning & Filling:
• Agitate colorants every morning for five (5) to ten (10) minites.
• Clean nozzles & outside cabinet surfaces with soap and water.
• Check canisters and fill as required.
 
 
 
WEEKLY
Cleaning & Nozzle Maintenance:
• Dispense a full measure of any colorant that has not been used
during the previous week. Dispense into a clean container and 
return to the appropriate canister. 
• Clean all accessible inside surfaces with soap and water.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
If a nozzle becomes clogged, the obstruction can generally be cleared by 
inserting a paper clip or similar object in the valve opening. Before inserting 
such a device, open the valve by pulling the valve lever down and holding 
while clearing the opening. BE SURE THAT THE VALVE IS OPENED, 
AND STAYS OPEN WHILE CLEANING IN THIS WAY. IF THE 
VALVE CLOSES AT ANY TIME DURING THIS OPERATION, THE 
VALVE COULD BE DAMAGED. If colorant leaks develop at the top of 
the pump, or if colorant can be observed on the pump piston rod, the pump 
assembly must be repaired. The Pump Repair Kit (P/N 4223212) can be 
purchased from the Fluid Management Customer Service Department. A 
colorant leak at the bottom of the pump assembly generally indicates that the 
pump assembly has been damaged. In this case, the valve assembly must be 
replaced with either the Viton Valve Repair Kit (P/N 4231002) or the 
Thiokol Repair Kit (P/N 4231011).
