Lubrication & General Maintenance
4.1 Lubrication & General
Maintenance Introduction
Lubrication Points
You should become familiar with the location of all
components that require frequent lubrication and
include them in the general maintenance schedule.
Some of these lubrication points require special-
ized lubricants. The lubrication points shown in
the photos and listed in the Lubrication Charts
on the following pages in this section provide a
guide to the location of the lubrication points on
your machine.
NOTICE:
IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO SHOW ALL VALVES, HINGES,
LATCHES AND SAFETY PINS ON THE LUBRICATION CHARTS.
RELATED ITEMS NOT SHOWN SHOULD ALSO BE INCLUDED
IN YOUR MAINTENANCE ROUTINE.
Refer to the Maintenance Matrix chart in the
Scheduled Maintenance section in this manual
and component manufacturer’s operating and/or
maintenance manuals for lubricant specifications
and maintenance schedules.
Some lubrication points require grease daily or
weekly. In extremely wet or dirty conditions the
requirements could increase. The lubrication fre-
quency outlined in this section should be consid-
ered the minimum requirement.
Before operating or performing any maintenance
on the vehicle make sure the machine is properly
shutdown and secured in the service position.
General Maintenance
Some components of the ultra-high pressure water
and vacuum systems require daily maintenance or
may require maintenance during a typical water
blasting shift. This maintenance is considered
routine general maintenance and a component of
the water blasting process. The service procedures
for these items are described in this section of the
manual. The frequency for maintaining general
maintenance items will vary, depending on the
quality of the clean water supply, the overall
condition of the water blasting systems and
proficiency of the operators.
CAUTION
THE GENERAL MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES OUTLINED
IN THIS SECTION MUST BE FOLLOWED EXACTLY TO
AVOID DAMAGING COMPONENTS AND/OR VOIDING THE
WARRANTY.
Scheduled Maintenance
Components that are typically serviced periodi-
cally or at specific hours of operation are consid
-
ered scheduled maintenance items. The service
procedures for those items are described in the
Scheduled Maintenance section.
Service Position
Properly shutting down and securing the machine
for service is critical to the safety of the operator
and/or service personnel.
Use the following procedure to place the
machine in the service position:
1. Park vehicle on a level area and block wheels.
2. Apply parking brake.
3. Make sure all components lifted hydraulically
are in the full down position or properly sup-
ported to remove the load from the cylinders
and hinges.
4.
Turn all switches off and speed dials to 0.
5. Shutdown the auxiliary engine and disable the
water blasting electrical system at the main
circuit breakers.
6. Shutdown the truck engine and remove the
truck and auxiliary engine keys.
7. Follow all Lockout/tagout and additional shut-
down procedures established in your company
safety guidelines to complete the service
position.
