d. While pumping, open the fluid drain/purge
valve. Allow the water to flush out any material
to prevent material hardening in the valve. Once
the water appears clean, close the fluid
drain/purge valve.
e. Turn the motor power switch (S) to OFF.
f.
Place applicator outlet in a waste container.
g. Turn the motor power switch (S) to ON to
dispense into a waste container.
h. Dispense into a waste container until hopper is
almost empty then turn the motor power switch
(S) to OFF.
i.
Repeat this entire “Circulate clean water” step
one more time to ensure system is thoroughly
flushed.
11. Remove the remaining material with a hose
clean-out ball. See for a list of available clean-out
balls and appropriate hose sizes to use with them.
a. Remove the applicator from the end of the hose
and place the hose outlet back in the waste
container.
b. Remove the hose inlet from the pump outlet and
place a hose clean-out ball within the hose inlet.
The ball must be wetted down before inserting.
c. Reattach the hose to the pump outlet and turn
the motor power switch (S) to ON to resume
flushing the hose.
d. The hose clean-out ball will be pushed out of
the hose after several minutes. Once the ball is
pushed through the hose, turn the motor power
switch (S) to OFF and repeat the entire process
listed in step 10 one time to ensure the system
is thoroughly flushed.
12. Turn compressed air on to blow out any material
that may have back-flowed into the air lines while
flushing (this will prevent air line pack out).
13. After performing the previous step at least twice,
drain remaining water from system:
a. Place a drain pan beneath pump lower inlet
connection.
b. Detach pump from hopper (see
on page 19).
c. Use a screwdriver to lift the pump lower inlet
ball. This will drain the remaining material from
the pump lower. When the pump stops draining,
release the pump lower inlet ball.
d. Reattach pump to hopper.
e. Starting at the pump, raise the hose bundle
above your head and slowly move towards the
applicator. As you move towards the applicator,
the remaining fluid in the hose will drain from
the applicator into the bucket.
14. Dispose of all waste material in accordance with
local rules and regulations. See manufacturer’s
SDS for additional information.
Mix the Material
Always follow the material manufacturer’s instructions
for the material being sprayed. Material must be
thoroughly mixed to a smooth consistency before
loading it in the hopper.
Managing Material After Mixing:
•
Pay close attention to the work life of the material
being used.
•
Only mix the material kits as needed. Do not let
mixed material sit longer than necessary.
•
Scrape material down the sides of the hopper as the
hopper material level lowers. Do not let older
material cure on the walls.
•
To ensure that all material in the hopper is used
while fresh, occasionally wait until the hopper is
almost empty before refilling.
NOTICE
Material left on the throat seal can dry out and damage
the seal. Always stop the pump at the bottom of the
stroke to avoid damage to the throat seal.
