Possible cause
Troubleshooting
Rectification by
Pump motor
does not start
Pump motor defective
Exchange pump motor
Service engineer
Connection cable defective
Change connection cable
Service engineer
Plug or inbuilt socket defective
Change plug or inbuilt socket
Service engineer
Motor protection switch defective or
triggered
Change motor protection switch or reset Service engineer
Machine stops
after a short
while
Water inlet filter contaminated
Clean or replace filter
Operator
Filter of pressure relieve device
contaminated
Clean or replace filter
Operator
Hose connection or water pipe too
small
Increase dimensions of hose connection
or water pipe
Operator
Water inlet pipe too long or inlet
pressure too low
if possible, attach an additional booster
pump
Service engineer
Machine does
not switch off
Air
pressure
safety
switch
set
incorrectly or defective
Adjust or replace air pressure safety
switch
Service engineer
Air pressure hose defective or seals
defective
Replace air pressure hose, replace
seals or check compressor
Service engineer
Air tap at the spraying gun defective
Replace air tap
Service engineer
Power provided by compressor is too
low.
Check compressor
Service engineer
Air duct is not connected to the
compressor
Connect air duct to the compressor
Operator
Mortar flow
ceases (air
bubbles)
Bad mixture in mixing tube
Add more water
Operator
Material is clumped and narrows the
mixing tube inlet
Add more water or clean mixing shaft or
replace
Operator
Material in mixing tube has become
wet
Empty mixing tube, dry it and start again Operator
Mixing shaft defective
Replace mixing shaft
Operator
Driving dog defective
Replace driving dog
Service engineer
During
operation water
rises in the
mixing tube
Backpressure in mortar hose higher
than pump pressure
Replace rotor or stator
Service engineer
Rotor or stator worn
Replace rotor or stator
Service engineer
Hose is blocked by mortar that is too
thick (high pressure by low water
factor)
Remove blockage, increase water factor Service engineer
