Elkhart Brass SFL-GN-95-SPL - Manual

Marine Nozzle
SFL-GN-95-SPL
Operating & Maintenance Instructions
Before flowing water through the nozzle, ensure the
nozzle tip is in the Wide Angle Fog pattern and the
shutoff is in the CLOSED position.
Slowly move the bale handle from the CLOSED to OPEN position to avoid a water hammer scenario.
Test the range of operation from Wide Fog to Straight Stream and then back to ensure smooth rotation.
Inspect the water pattern for any gaps or disruptions as this could signal debris or damage.
See the Troubleshooting section for flush operation.
MAINTENANCE
After each use the nozzle should be cleaned and inspected to maintain optimal performance.
Preventative Maintenance
It is recommended that the nozzle should be removed from the hose while the hose is being drained and
stored.
The nozzle should be cleaned with a mild detergent using a nylon bristled brush, and also flushed with
fresh water. Inspect nozzle for any damage at this time.
Caution:
Petroleum based solvents are not recommended for cleaning the nozzle.
Using petroleum based solvents components such as the O-rings, gaskets, or bumper
may degrade the causing premature failure.
Reattach the nozzle to the stored hose in the CLOSED position, and in Wide Angle Fog. When possible,
the nozzle should be stored with the discharge facing downward to prevent contaminants and debris
from collecting in the outlet.
Nozzle Inspection
Nozzle Tip Rotation: Rotate the bumper/nozzle tip through all positions several times. The nozzle tip
should not bind or stick at any point along the way. Return to Wide Angle Fog position when done.
