Important !
In types LM, SLA and SSR the stuffing
boxes must be retightened after the initial
startup. The tension should be regulated
one, two, four and 10 hours after initial start-
up. (For the running-in phase of the seals,
see E.3 Maintenance work).
3. System shut-down
i
Important!
Before carrying out the shut-down
procedures, flush through without adding
cleaning agents. This prevents a crust
forming on the seals or that they become
stuck fast, either of which would lead to
premature wear.
During the recirculation operation with
solvent, the system must be rinsed through
thoroughly using clean solvent before the
shut-down procedure takes place.

Danger!
The high-pressure jet produces a recoil
effect.

You could lose your balance.
„
You could fall over.
Therefore:
„
Ensure that you have a firm footing.
„
Keep a tight grip on the handgun.
„
Do not wedge the handgun fast in the
open position.
If the lever is wedged fast, the recoil effect
causes the high-pressure hose to twist and
turn in various directions, which result in
damage to other equipment or persons.
