MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE

Clean-Up Process:
1. All parts of your Pioneer Brite Striper, except those enclosed in the
component box, should be cleaned immediately after each use. We
recommend Pioneer P.H.D. Cleaner. A clean, lint-free rag should be
used to wipe dry the machine.
2. We recommend putting the pick-up tube into a bucket with a
dilution of 2 gallons water to one cup P.H.D. Run the striper until
you no longer see any paint and water is clearly coming through
the tip.
3. A final step should then be to remove the nozzle cap and clean the
nozzle tip and screens. This can easily be done by placing all three
parts in a small amount of P.H.D. and allow them to soak for a few
minutes. An old tooth brush can be used for stubborn spots. Rinse
the nozzle assembly parts with clean water and allow to air dry.
CAUTION: DO NOT USE WIRE OR ANY OTHER OBJECT TO CLEAN
NOZZLE TIP AS THIS MAY CAUSE TIP ORIFICE TO BECOME ENLARGED
WHICH WILL RESULT IN POOR PERFORMANCE WHEN STRIPING.
How To Store:
Cleaning your machine thoroughly cannot be overemphasized. A little
extra effort at the end of each job will save you time and money when
it is time to stripe again. As stated previously, run a gallon or so of
water and P.H.D. solution through the machine. Be sure to clean out the
screen inside the nozzle assembly and filter on the suction tube.
DO NOT EXPOSE THE COMPONENT BOX TO WATER. DO NOT HOSE DOWN
THIS MACHINE, AS IT IS ELECTRICAL AND MAY CAUSE PERMANENT
DAMAGE. BE SURE TO CLEAN OUT THE PUMP SYSTEM. FAILURE TO DO
THIS MAY RESULT IN FAILURE AND MALFUNCTION OF THE UNIT.
Normal Wear:
Warranty will not cover repair where normal use has exhausted the life
of the part. Line stripers, like all mechanical devices, need periodic parts
replacement and service to perform well. It should be remembered that the
service life of any equipment is dependent on the care it receives and the
conditions under which it has to operate.
1. Flush machine out thoroughly.
2. Remove hoses and drain.
3. Lubricate spray valve (shut-off valve).
4. Keep battery charger connected.
