3.12 Now you are ready to add water
Your water temperature should be 140° F. (60° C) or consistent with
your municipal code/regulations. You require hot water to get a good
bond to the existing ice, and you also get denser ice because more
of the oxygen has been removed from the water. Additionally, there
will be less ice chipping and therefore less snow build up if hot water
is used.
Drain tanks after every resurfacing operation by leaving the water
tap open and letting the remaining water flow out through the flood
pipes. When preparing for the resurfacing operation, fill your tanks
with fresh HOT water.
NOT following this procedure will result in a poor ice surface.
The amount of ice shavings picked up from a resurfacing operation
should equal the amount of water that is used, otherwise you will get
a buildup of ice. If you find that you ice is building up, you will have
to periodically shave without flooding to prevent this build up.
The Flood pipes have been drilled out to 1/8” (0,32 cm) holes. If you
feel that this amount of water is still not sufficient, then enlarge the
holes.
3.13 Preventative maintenance
As stated at the beginning, we suggest that you establish and follow
a comprehensive maintenance and service schedule. If you follow
this schedule your OLYMPIA 500 will give you years of excellent
service. To avoid major problems, you should make minor
adjustments as you notice them. Other helpful hints are as follows:
1. Lubricate all bearings WEEKLY to ensure that no moisture is
present, including oiling of the chains.
2. Check the elevator chain and the motor chain tensions
WEEKLY.
3. Change the blade every 75 to 100 scrapes.
4. Use the blades evenly to avoid unnecessary blade holder
adjustments.
5. Be sure to thoroughly wash your machine after every flood.
