0420 Roto-Jet  

•  Replace the machine cover and test for proper assembly.
•  If the machine is still sluggish and inefficient call an Elliott service facility.
•  Recommended solvents for flushing are: 

DEM-Kote 2X726 
Loctite Safety Solvent 
Inhibisol Safety Solvent

The vanes in the air motor are designed to give between 5,000 and 15,000 hours of operation under 
normal conditions and with the proper lubrication.  If you suspect that the machine is in need of new 
vanes contact the Elliott service location.  (Repair kit 04230 is available.)

Under normal conditions other lubrication of the machine between uses is not necessary, unless the 
machine has been operated “Dry”.  Should you wish to use the Roto-JetTM dry, the manifold drive 
shaft must be lubricated with a few drops of oil.  Position the machine vertically, taking care not 
to damage the throttle valve or air supply coupling.  Use a standard long spout oil can to place oil 
behind the brass square drive coupling.  Using the machine dry after it has been used for wet opera-
tion, could damage the seals and bearings, which may require replacement if not lubricated.

Clean dust and debris from vents.  Keep the machine handles clean, dry and free of oil or grease.
Your machine has been finished with a two-part, epoxy, paint coating that is very durable and should 
last the life of the machine.  Use only mild soap and a damp cloth to clean your machine.  Certain 
cleaning solvents can be harmful to the painted surfaces.  Never use flammable or combustible sol-
vents around machines.

After each use, drain all water from the flexshaft outer casing.  Store the flexshaft by laying it down, 
in a large diameter coil, in a dry, secured area.

After every cleaning season or 12 months remove the machine cover and check the motor coupling 
set screws for proper tightness.  Inspect the coupling for alignment and verify the connections of 
the tubing within the machine.  Replace the cover and position the machine vertically.  Lubricate the 
manifold drive shaft, behind the female brass square drive coupling with a few drops of oil.  An oil 
can with a standard long spout will be required.  Make sure the flexshaft casing is drained of all wa-
ter.  Lubricate the flexshaft with a water soluble lubricant solution diluted to the manufacturers rec-
ommendations.  An oil can with a standard long spout will be required.  Position the spout between 
the flexshaft core and the casing.  Fill and drain the flexshaft from both ends.  When finished, store 
the flexshaft by laying it down, in a large diameter coil, in a dry, secured area.  Start the next cleaning 
season by operating the machine prior to starting a new job.  For more information on proper opera-
tion see “Operation” section.
