Safety
1. WARNING: Use pressure relief device on the
discharge side of the pump to prevent damage
from pressure buildup when the pump discharge
is blocked or otherwise closed and the power
source is still running. For trigger gun operation,
or where discharge is frequently shut off,
pressure unloader valves are recommended. The
Turbo Stream system is equipped with a pressure
relief device and should not be removed.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS WARNING MAY
RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR
PROPERTY DAMAGE AND WILL VOID THE
PRODUCTION WARRANTY.
2. WARNING: Do not pump flammable or explosive
fluids such as gasoline, fuel oil, kerosene, etc.
Do not use in explosive atmospheres. The
pump should be used only with liquids that are
compatible with the pump component materials.
Failure to fallow this warning may result in
personal injury and/or damage and will void the
product warranty.
3. Do not pump at a pressure higher than the maximum
recommended pressure. [1450 psi (100 BAR)].
4. Do not run the system at greater than recommended
capacity.
5. Do not permanently remove or alter any guarding
devices or attempt to operate the system when these
guards are removed.
6. Always disconnect the power source before
attempting to service any part of the system.
7. Release all pressure within the system before
servicing any of its components.
8. Drain all concentrate and water from the discharge
system before servicing any of its component parts.
9. Periodically inspect all hoses for wear or worn
conditions. Make sure all connections and fittings are
tight and secure.
10. Use pipe, hose and fittings that are rated at or
above the maximum pressure rating at which the
water pump system may operate.
11. Use pipe, hose and fittings from the hydraulic
oil pump to the foam pump hydraulic motor, which
are rated at 3000 PSI (207 BAR) minimum working
pressure or better and are approved for mobile
hydraulic system use.
12. The components and fittings used in this system
must be compatible with the foam concentrates used
and pressures at which the pump system operates.
13. CAUTION: ENSURE THAT THE ELECTRICAL
SOURCE OF POWER FOR THE UNIT IS THE
APPROPRIATE 12 VOLT NEGATIVE-GROUND DC
SYSTEM.
14. Secure all discharge lines before starting the pump.
A non-secured line may whip, causing personal injury
and/or property damage.
15. Any electrical system has the potential to cause
sparks during service. Take care to eliminate
explosive or hazardous environments during service
and repair.
16. CAUTION: Do not attempt to operate the system
at or above a temperature of 130°F (55°C).
17. CAUTION: Periodically inspect the pump and
the system components. Perform routine
maintenance as required. Failure to perform
routine maintenance may cause damage to
individual system components; pump, motor, and
gearbox assemblies. See the maintenance section
of this manual for recommended maintenance
procedures and intervals between maintenance
work.
18. CAUTION: Read and understand “Operating
Instructions” section before attempting to operate
the unit.
19. CAUTION: The components shipped with each
FoamPro unit are tested at the factory. Improper
handling and forcing connections can damage the
components which could result in other system
damage.
20. CAUTION: Ensure the fuel source for the gas
engine is in the “OFF” position while in transport
or storage mode. This will prevent engine flooding
and fuel leakage.
