SECTION 4 - MAINTAINING YOUR TFS25
It is vitally important that your TFS25 is thoroughly cleaned after every usage to ensure the long life of
the spraying components of the machine. It is recommended that Supaflush be used to further aid the
cleaning of the machine.
Always clean the TFS25 after use and follow these simple steps to ensure your machine is as clean as
possible.
1.
Empty leftover product out of the tank/drum.
2.
Fill the additional empty tank/drum with a minimum of 3 litres of clean water.
3.
Transfer the filling tube from the ‘paint drum’ to the ‘clean water drum’.
4.
Turn the machine on, making sure all residue is collected in a bucket, and leave running until the
lines run clear.
5.
To make sure the lines and system are cleaned thoroughly, repeat step 2, using 3 litres of water
and adding 50mls of Supaflush. This allows the Supaflush cleaner to wash through the pump and
spray nozzle assembly.
Note: In the event of a frost, do not leave water/marking fluid in the tank and pump. Always use
eye protection and gloves when using Supaflush cleaner. In the event of spillage, refer to the
Supaflush Material Safety Data Sheet. Dispose of waste water through the appropriate channels.
WARNING:
Solvent based material should never be used to wash the machine or tank, as this has the potential
to create an explosive environment.
Replacement of spray nozzle and/or filter:
Spray nozzles and filters are consumable items and need to be cleaned or replaced on a regular basis. The
timing of this depends upon the amount of usage, but as a general guide, we would expect the average
user to clean the filter every month, or as necessary, and replace it every 3-6 months. Replace the spray
nozzle when the spray pattern is damaged. Spray nozzles should be replaced at least once every 3-6
months.
Replacement is a simple process. Look at the exploded diagram in the inset illustration. The filter is item
marked
F
and the spray nozzle is the item marked
G.
To access the nozzle, turn the nozzle cap (
H
in the
inset illustration) one half turn anti-clockwise. The filter, sealing washer and nozzle can now be removed
and replaced if required. Re-assembly is a simple reversal of this process.
