Checklists
1. Allow the vacuum blower to operate for a couple of minutes after shutting down
the high pressure and charge water pumps to clear waste water from hoses and
dry out blower system.
2. Make sure the clean water and debris tanks are drained immediately at the end
of each shift.
3. All system hoses and the Hog Head assembly should be drained of all water and/
or filled with an anti-freeze solution. (non alcohol)
4. For the 40K water blaster, refer to pump manufacturer’s procedures for maintain-
ing equipment in freezing climates.
5. Open the drain valve at the charge water pump and allow the hoses and pump
to completely drain. With the valve still open, activate the pump briefly to pump
out any remaining water, about a cupful. Then close the valve.
6. Remove the debris pump strainer and run the pump briefly to drain the pump
hoses. Then clean and reinstall the strainer.
7. Pour 2 gallons of anti-freeze into the high pressure pump stuffing box sump so
it will drain to the bilge pump sump system. Allow the bilge pump to run until
anti-freeze is visible at the bilge pump hose fitting in the debris tank.
8. Drain the vacuum canister immediately at the end of each shift.
9. Follow all other instructions in the Warm Weather Shutdown Procedure.
Note:
If you operate at freezing temperatures or even temperatures below 60 de-
grees Fahrenheit (16 degrees Celsius), it will be necessary to operate the
system, including engaging the blower and high pressure pump, at IDLE
speed only under load, until oil heats up above 60 degrees Fahrenheit (16
degrees Celsius).
