Manual : 573.049.112
The pump being in a top position :
9 - Move level (14) to middle position.
10 - Adjust the pressure (21) (grey knob) up to about 1 bar / 14.5 psi.
11 - Place the material drum under follower plate (18).
12- Make sure the follower plate diameter corresponds to the drum diameter (Ø 360 mm / 14").
13 - Be certain fitting (9) is installed on the pump.
14 - Close valve (7).
15 - Remove drain plug (8).
16 - Move down level (14). In order to centre the plate correctly in the drum, push down the level
progressively.
17 - As soon as the material comes through drain (8), replace the plug. If the material does not come out,
increase the pressure (21) by means of the grey knob.
18 - Keep level (14) in a bottom position.
19 - Turn red knob until to obtain a 2 or 3 bar reading on gauge (22) - (29 to 43 psi) : the pump should start
cycling.
20 - Point the gun into a waste container and press the trigger.
21 - Adjust the pressure (22) so that the pump cycles at a rate of about 10 to 20 strokes/minute.
22 - Extrude the material until there is no more air.
23 - Install the nozzle and adjust the pressure (22) according to the desired flow rates.
24 - If the material overflows in the drum around the plate seal, turn grey knob (counterclockwise) to
reduce the pressure.
25 - If the pump races that means it does not suck the material. Turn the grey knob (clockwise) to
increase the pressure on the follower plate.
ADJUSTMENTS
The material flow rate is too high
The material flow rate is too low
Ð
Ð
Turn the red knob (counterclockwise)
Turn the red knob (clockwise)
Use a smaller diameter nozzle.
Use a bigger diameter nozzle.
Use
a
bigger
and
shorter
hose.
7. SHUTDOWN AT END OF WORK
1 - Leave level (14) in a bottom position.
2 - Disconnect the compressed air supply.
The pump must remain full of material, the follower plate being in contact with the material (like a cover) to
prevent it from drying.
8. DRUM
REPLACEMENT
1 - Fully turn the red knob. (Counterclockwise).
2 - With the grey knob, adjust the pressure (21) up to 1 bar.
3 - Move level (14) to middle position.
4 - Disconnect quick-release fitting (9) and connect it to valve (7).
5 - Open valve (7).
6 - Move up level (14) until the elevator lift up the pump and the drum at 5 cm / 2" from the floor. Then
move level (14) to middle position.
7 - Progressively turn the red knob (clockwise) until the plate is disengaged from the drum.
8 - Move up level (14). The pump should raise and the drum should stay down.
9 - To restart the pump, refer to chapter 6.
9. DAILY
CARE
GUN
Comply with the usual instruction of gun servicing (refer to gun manual).
