♦ If no ball valve is immediately available:

Relieve pressure in system, remove ball valve,
then control fluid flow by adjusting air regulator
up and down as needed.

3/4 in. x 10 ft whip hose is too restrictive.

♦ Remove 3/4 in. x 10 ft whip hose from bundle

at applicator end. Move fluid ball valve to end
of 1 in. x 25 ft hose. Coil up extra air hose at
machine end.

♦ Thin and mix material thoroughly to a lower

viscosity.

♦ Use a pump system priming fluid (slime). See

Wet Out the System, page 16

* To determine if fluid hose or applicator is obstructed,
follow

Pressure Relief Procedure, page 15

Disconnect fluid hose and place a container at pump
fluid outlet to catch any fluid. Turn on air power just
enough to start pump. If pump starts, the obstruction
is in fluid hose or applicator.
