To use the Center spray bar and the side spray bars:
1.
Turn the ball valves leading to the side spray bars to
the “ON” position.
2. Extend the side spray bars to the desired position.
3. Turn the Power Switch to the “ON” position. Ensure the
Battery Meter shows One bar and that there is ample
battery charge.
4. Turn the Spray Bar Switch to the “ON” position. Any air
in the spray bar will purge out and the spray tips will
begin to spray the solution.
5.
Ensure there is a uniform, consistent pattern coming
from the spray tips. If one or more of the tips is not
spraying a uniform, consistent fan shape, turn off the
Spray Bar switch and clean the tip. (Refer to the “Tip
Cleaning” section below.)
6.
Once the tips are spraying properly, begin to move the
machine forward to start spraying solution onto the
surface.
7.
When complete, turn the Spray bar switch to the “OFF”
position and confirm the spraying has stopped.
NOTE: There will be some leakage from the spray tips as
the fluid in the spray bars drips out. Either collect the drips
with cups or other containers, or allow it to drip onto a
surface that will not be affected.
Machine Maintenance
Routine maintenance is critical to ensure proper machine
operation and spraying performance. Perform all
maintenance procedures as follows:
Always turn OFF all machine switches before
performing any maintenance.
Daily maintenance
At the end of the day empty all liquid from the solution
tanks.
•
Rinse the tank with clean water to remove debris and
prevent solution residue build up, to prevent odors
from building up.
•
Run clean water through both the Wand spray tip and
the center and side spray bars to purge them of any
remaining solution.
•
The solution tank can be emptied by removing the
solution gage hose and allowing the unit to drain
• Remove the spray tips (1/4 turn) from the spray bars
and put them in a glass or plastic container with a
solution of 25% vinegar and water overnight to remove
any solution residue.
•
Remove the spray tip from the wand by unscrewing
the hex nut holding it in place. Place the tip in a glass
or plastic container with a solution of 25% vinegar and
water overnight to remove any solution residue.
• Clean the 100 mesh screen that is installed in the
wand by rinsing it in running water. Then place it in
the vinegar solution with the tip overnight.
• Rinse the caster wheels and the 10” wheels to clean
them of any solution that remains on the surface.
Weekly Maintenance (25 Hours)
• Verify all daily maintenance has been performed.
• Flush clean solution tank, hoses and spray bars with a
mixture of 8 ounces (250 milliliters) white vinegar to one-
gallon (4 liter) warm water.
• Pour it into the solution tank, turn the machine “ON” and
operate it to completely clean the tank, and the spray jets,
(running for 30 seconds should be sufficient). This will
remove any chemical residue. Failure to flush the solution
system will result in poor spray patterns and corroded jet
spray tips.
• Remove and clean the fine mesh filter in the bottom
of the solution tank. This filter is mounted externally
under the solution tank (body). First close the ball valve
located just ahead of the clear plastic canister. Remove
the screen after removing the canister. Twist the canister
to remove Remove the filter mesh screen to rinse out.
Replace when completed.
CAUTION If there is any clean solution in the tank it
will drain out at this time. Reassemble and check for
leaks.
•
Repair or replace any worn or damaged components
as needed.
