7 • Maintenance

1.  Check the moistener tank to see how much sealing solution is 

left.

3.  If the tank was empty, allow 30 minutes for the moistener 

brush and wick to get completely wet.

Check Level Here

Fill Here

Filling the Moistener (if fitted)

Refer to the following procedure to refill the moistener.

CAUTION!  Don't overfill the moistener tank. 

2.  Add enough sealing solution or water to bring the sealant 

level up to the bottom of the fill hole. We recommend sealing 

solution because it helps keep your moistener clean and 

improves sealing efficiency.
