(A little time spent here may prevent some downtime when you want to be rolling.)
1.
Visually check entire system (hoses, fittings, harnesses, etc.) for any signs of wear or
trouble.
2.
On the display, recheck all setup screens (see Section F) to verify correct setup.
3.
Fill system with water and run in Manual mode (or Section Test) to verify components and system are in
working order. (May need to open air bleed valve to prime pump the first time. Be sure air bleed tube is
not
plugged.)
4.
If necessary run pump in manual override mode to check hydraulic setup (see page
51
). Clean out the dirt
that may be packed in to the manual override knob on the hydraulic valve block.
5.
Tighten all clamps. Loose clamps may be evident by leaks on the output side of the system. Loose
clamps
from the tank to the pump are not always apparent, but can be sources of air getting into the
system which
can create issues.
6.
Push in tubes at all Quick
-
Connect fittings so they are seated tightly. Tubes that are not fully seated are
always obvious, but may allow air in, which can cause check valves to leak.
7.
Remove the black cap from the top of each check valve. Check the diaphragm to be sure it is intact and
not gummed up with residue. Look under the diaphragm for debris. Compress the spring in the cap to be
sure it moves freely. Carefully replace diaphragm and tighten cap.
8.
Remove and clean the strainer. Be sure strainer is tightened securely so it will not suck air.
9.
Be sure all rows are flowing and that all metering tubes/orifices are open. (Note: It will take a higher flow
rate with water to create enough pressure to open all the check valves.)
10.
Run the Nozzle Flow Check (or in Auto Mode from Run Screen with a Test Speed) to verify that system
will lock on to a Target Rate.
