3. ASSEMBLY
5. PREPARATION & USE
As you unpack the product, check contents. Should
there be any damaged or missing parts contact
your supplier immediately.
3.1. Assemble the gate valve (A) which
connects the tank to the reservoir, directly
to the reservoir as shown in fig.1, ensuring
that a rubber seal is fitted to both ends of
the valve.
3.2
Screw the air regulator and safety valve
assembly (B) to the reservoir as shown in
fig.2 ensuring that the rubber seal
provided is in place.
3.3
Assemble the two upper tank support
arms (C) into the sockets provided on the
tank but do not tighten the fittings yet.
3.4
Place the upper tank onto the support arms
and lower it down until the tank outlet
drops into the top of the gate valve (A). Fix
the tank to the valve by tightening ring (Q)
as shown in fig.4. Tighten the hex socket
bolts at either end of the upper tank
supports (C). Fit handle into support arm
brackets (C) and tighten.
3.5
Mount the cleaning brush in its stowage
position on the underside of the lid over to
the left hand side. Feed the brush tube (T)
through the hole in the righthand side of
the tank and connect it to outlet (R) on the
head of the regulator /safety valve
assembly.
5.1
Filling the unit with cleaning fluid.
5.1.1 Make sure that the drain cock at the base
of the unit is closed as shown at (F) in fig.6.
5.1.2 Turn the lever (D) to the right which is the
air discharge position. This allows the fluid
to drain more easily out of the upper tank
and into the lower reservoir. See fig.7.
Open the gate valve (E) by turning the
lever to the vertical position.
5.1.3 Shut the pressure regulator by pulling and
turning the pressure regulator knob (G)
anticlockwise. See fig.8.
5.1.4 Pour cleaning fluid into the upper tank and
allow it to drain down into the lower
reservoir. Continue to fill the unit until the
level has risen to the maximum mark on
the level indicator tube.
5.1.5 Before using the unit ensure that all filter
grids are in place.
WARNING! Wear approved safety eye
protection, mask and gloves. If solvent gets on
skin or in eyes wash thoroughly with water and
take any other action as required by the solvent
instructions.
4.1.
Ensure that the air regulator valve is closed before connecting the air supply.
4.2.
An air pressure of 40-60psi and an available air volume of 6cfm will be required to operate the unit.
WARNING! Ensure air supply is clean and does not exceed 110psi. Too high an air pressure and/or unclean air will
shorten the product life, and may be dangerous, causing possible damage and/or personal injury.
Air supply must be equipped with regulator & water trap.
4.3.
Drain the air supply tank daily. Water in the air line will damage the unit.
4.4.
Clean the air supply filter weekly. For recommended hook-up, see
diagram to right.
4.5.
Line pressure should be increased to compensate for unusually long
air hoses (over 8 metres). The minimum hose internal diameter
should be 10mm and fittings must have the same internal
dimension.
4.6.
Keep hose away from heat, oil and sharp edges. Check hoses
for wear, and make certain that all connections are secure.
4.7.
The air inlet connection is 1/4”BSP.
