Filling the unit with cleaning fluid.
Make sure that the drain cock at the base of
the unit is closed as shown at (F) in fig.6.
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.
Shut the pressure regulator by pulling and
turning the pressure regulator knob (G)
anticlockwise. See fig.8.
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.
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.
Commencing Brush Washing.
Close the gate valve (e) and turn lever (d) to the left as shown in fig.10.
Connect a compressed air line to the connector shown in fig.11.
Pre-set the air pressure by pulling and turning the air regulator knob clockwise until the gauge shows
a pressure between 90 & 110psi.
Turn the flow regulator (M) anticlockwise until fluid flows from the brush. See fig.12.
Safety valve.
The fluid outlet head (S) shown in fig.12 is a
movable, weighted item that acts as a safety
valve. If the flow regulator (M) is opened too
much, excess air will be discharged from
underneath the head. Take care to set the
flow regulator (M) to an adequate but not
excessive flow of air.
Air blow Gun.
The unit is also equipped with an air blow
gun for drying components after cleaning.
When the nozzle of the gun is twisted
clockwise the gun is shut off. When the
nozzle is twisted anticlockwise the gun is on.
The first movement of the trigger produces a
medium flow of air. When the trigger reaches
its full travel the air flow changes to a more
gentle blow.
