Troubleshooting
1.
Relieve the pressure before you check or service
any system equipment.
2.

Isolate a Mixing Problem
A mixing problem can be caused by a problem with the
pumps, as well as the mix manifold.
1.
To isolate the problem, check for any visible leaks:
a.
Are all air and fluid tubes and hoses properly
connected?
b.
Are supply pumps properly set?
c.
Do the fluid supplies need refilling?
To avoid serious injury, follow the
Pressure Relief
Procedure
in your M2K Spray Package manual
before cleaning, checking, or repairing equipment.
Problem
Cause
Solution
Little or no resin (A) output
The inlet to the pump is plugged
Clean the inlet, remove the obstruc-
tion
The fluid supply container is empty
Refill the fluid supply
The resin proportioning pump is not
supplying flow or pressure.
Verify fluid supply to the propor-
tioner.
Fluid check valve is installed back-
wards on resin side of mix manifold.
Verify proportioner pump checks
and seals are functioning correctly.
Verify manifold check valves are
installed correctly.
Little or no catalyst (B) output
The fluid inlet to the pump is
plugged
Clean the inlet; remove the obstruc-
tion
The fluid supply container is empty
Refill the fluid supply
The catalyst proportioning pump is
not supplying flow or pressure.
Verify fluid supply to the propor-
tioner.
Fluid check valve is installed back-
wards on catalyst side of mix mani-
fold
Verify proportioner pump checks
and seals are functioning correctly
Verify manifold check valves are
installed correctly
The mixed fluid will not flush out
from manifold
Material has hardened in the mixing
chamber.
Disassemble and clean or replace
the mix manifold
The solvent supply pump is not
turned on or the solvent supply is
empty
Verify solvent pump has air supply
turned on and pressure regulator
adjusted correctly, and solvent sup-
ply is full.
The flush solvent being used is not
