preventative maintenance checklist should be
reviewed. If any malfunction is found, it should be
repaired immediately.
MOTORS - Replace fan belts. Adjust for proper
tension.

point between the pulleys using moderate pressure.
Tension testers are available at local belt and drive
suppliers.
FANS- Check fan blade surfaces. Clean if
necessary. Oil the blade surfaces after cleaning. DO

CAUTION: FAILURE TO PERFORM THE
REQUIRED LUBRICATION WILL CAUSE
PREMATURE FAILURE OF THIS EQUIPMENT.
The moving mechanical portions of this equipment
require regular lubrication not less than every 3
months. The items requiring regular lubrication
include and are not limited to: door hinges,
dampers, and motors. If you are unsure which
items need lubrication, contact the equipment
supplier. If extreme moisture is present, lubrication
may need to be performed weekly.
CONTROL AIR – The air supplied to the Garmat
USA, Inc. paint spray booth must be clean and dry
before the attachment to the electrical control
panel. Water separators, filtersystems for
compressed air shall be installed up stream of the
Garmat USA, Inc. main electrical control panel
and filters, desiccant…etc. should be changed
annually. Examine the regulator/filter and oilier for
the control air (located at the side of the main
control panel). Pressure should be set between 45-
60 psi, drain the filter and refill the oilier with air
tool oil.
CONTROL PANEL - Review the following:
a: Pressure settings.
b: Temperature settings
Touch screen option
a: Touch screen cover (peel away).
b: Touch screen operation.
FINALLY - Run the booth a complete cycle of

AS RECOMENDED
MOTORS - In general, the motors supplied with
your Garmat paint booth require lubrication and
are fitted with grease zerks. Lubricate the motor
with a good quality grease quarterly making sure
not to force grease into the bearings. A ¼ squeeze
on a normal hand pump grease gun is sufficient.
Forcing grease into the bearing will damage the
bearing seals and shorten the motor life.
HEATER SECTION- Gas fired heaters require
little or no maintenance. However the burner
manifold should be inspected to make sure there is
no build up of debris or moisture. The flame rod in
