Pump in water container
13
You will connect one pipe to the water
pump and the other pipe will be placed
in the water container for the return
water.
It is not important which pipe is used as
the return.
Fit the 90 degree connector to the
pump.
Connect one of the pipes to the water
pump by pushing it into the 90 deg
connector. Lightly pull on the pipe to
ensure that it is connected correctly.
Fill a container about ¾ full with clean
water.
Lower the water pump into the container
ensuring that it is the correct way up [water inlet lowest] and place the water
return pipe into the container.
The logical position for the water container is just behind the control box close to
the caterpillar track. Ensure that it is close to the machine as you do not want to
kick the container and spill the water.
Once the assembly is complete and the water pump electrical connection has
been made, [plug the pump into the machine water pump socket] lift the water
return pipe up and check that the water is flowing.
Place the lid onto the container to keep dust and dirt out of the container.
Check the container periodically as the water will evaporate.
Note:
If the spindle is run without cooling, it could be damaged and fail.
Note:
should regain, sometimes the system will create an air bubble during shipping
causing vapor lock.
If water is not flowing or is slow, reverse the hoses on the pump and flow
Note:
If your shop is subject to freezing temperatures antifreeze must be added
to the cooling water.
Note:
No water container is supplied. You will need a container with a minimum
of 5 gallons capacity. If your shop is subject to high ambient temperatures a
larger water container may be required.
