Operator’s Manual

Original Issue - 19 August 2003

Check hopper and subframe-to-chassis mounting 
points

Check wiring and hoses for security of attachment 
and for signs of chafing. Rectify as necessary

Check oil level in high-pressure pump, top up as 
necessary

Clean air cleaner (more often if working in dusty 
conditions)

IN FROSTY WEATHER

CAUTION

Do not, under any circumstances, operate the high pressure pump 
without water. 

Drain the water tank (by removing the water strainers).
Open the drain taps on each water pump.
Switch on the water sprays and run the low pressure pump until dry.
Remove the water-strainer elements.
Leave the hopper slightly raised with rear & side doors slightly open. This allows air to 
circulate and prevents damage caused by seals freezing to their mating faces.
