Operation Guidelines
-Test your system using
WATER
to ensure you do not have leaks before moving onto sealant
-Ensure the pump is primed before starting your job
-Flush clean water through the pump and hoses at the end of each day
-Place spray tips into a soapy water solution at the end of each day
-Do not let sealant dry onto your spray tips
-Put spray tips into a container with soapy water when finished with them
-Clean spray tips with soft nylon brushes only
-Have clean water available at the job site for emergency rinsing
-Clean strainer daily to ensure proper sealant flow (strainer optional on some systems)
-Check engine oil levels daily
-Change engine oil after every 50 hours of operation, or at the end of the season, whichever comes first
Warning
- The main seal is critical to the operation of your spray system. We suggest that you keep a spare seal at all
times. This part is a wear item and does need to be replaced during regular maintenance. Failure of this part
will result in unexpected downtime.
Aluminum pump: RC-GCM-0047
Cast Iron Pump: RC-GCM-0033
-Failure to prime the pump prior to engine operation will destroy the pump seals. NEVER run the pump dry for
longer than 10 seconds.
NOTE: FAILURE TO PRIME THE PUMP WILL VOID THE SEAL WARRANTY.
-Always start the pump in full recirculation mode
-Switch the pump to recirculate mode if you are not going to be spraying for more than 30 seconds.
NOTE: Failure to do so may result in excessive heating of the sealant, which will cause it to thicken and
reduce the lifespan of pump parts.
-Turn the engine off for extended work stoppages, such as breaks, lunches, or other work stoppages.
NOTE: Apart from wasting fuel, this may cause your sealant to become foamy, which can introduce excessive
air into the lines and cause your pump to lose its prime. Foamy sealant can take an hour or more to return to a
useable state.
