Operating the Super Foam Dome
TM
5.1
Selecting the location
1.
Make sure unit is in a well-supported and secure location before supplying power and
fluid to unit.
2.
The height of the machine above the drum decides how fast it will pump fluid. The higher
the machine, the slower the fluid will flow through to the Super Foam Dome
TM
. This unit
is designed to be suspended 12’ to 16’ above the floor with the fluid drum on the floor.
Never place fluid reservoir level with or higher than the Super Foam Dome
TM
, as this will
cause siphoning and dripping and will not stop fluid when turned off.

Electrical Power Requirements
1.
This machine requires a grounded 120VAC/20A circuit for operation. The Super Foam
Dome
TM
draws approximately 13 amps at 120 VAC. During Super Foam Dome
TM
operation this circuit should be dedicated to the Super Foam Dome
TM
. If you have any
doubts about the capacity or grounding of your existing circuits, consult a qualified
electrician.
2.
You must have both units connected through the Ground Fault Interrupter (GFI) in
order to use this device.
1.
Plug GFI into a well-grounded 120VAC/20A circuit. If you have any doubt about the
circuit’s safety ground, plug-in testers are available to test the outlet. If in doubt,
discontinue trying to power this unit until the outlet can be checked by an electrician.
2.
With the power switch in the OFF position, verify that the red LED in the plug turns on.
3.
Press the test button, and verify that the red LED in the plug turns off.
4.
Press and release the reset button, and verify that the red LED indicator turns on.
5.
The GFI is now ready for use.
WARNING:
If the GFI fails to trip (turn off) when the test button is pressed, or fails to
reset (turn on), the device is defective and should be replaced.
o
NOTE:
If the GFI tests properly without the Super Foam Dome™ turned on, but trips
each time the unit is powered up, then the Super Foam Dome™ has a ground fault
condition and needs to be repaired or replaced.
DO NOT BYPASS THE GFI IF THIS
CONDITION OCCURS, A REAL SHOCK HAZARD MAY EXIST.
