Performing Daily Tasks
Daily Start Up
1. Check the unit for damaged or worn parts.
2. Check for leaking around fittings and weep hole on gun blocks; tighten packing nuts as
needed.
3. Check and fill materials as necessary to complete the job.
4. Check and fill the pump packing nut with the TSL oil as needed.
5. Properly mix resin as recommended by manufacturer.
6. Properly mix the BPO in the pressure tank – first by hand to remove any settling and then by
using the pressure tank mixer.
7. Mix BPO thoroughly before adding the BPO to the pressure tank.
Note
Fill the catalyst tank at least ¾ full. When using the mixer on the pressure tank
be sure not to mix too fast as this can whip air into the material. Allow some
time to pass before recirculation BPO after over mixing. Do not leave the
pressure tank mixer running while the unit is running.
