Read WARNINGS & SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS before operating machine
INSTALLATION
•
Inspect shipment for damages during transit and unpack
•
Connection to appropriate 240 or 415 Volt / 3-Phase power supply ensure all three
phases are connected and of suitable capacity. (Polarity not important.)
•
Ensure power outlet is appropriately earthed and fitted with an earth leakage safety
device
WARNING – ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZZARD:
- Never operate machine off a power outlet without earth leakage safety device
-
Never clean the machine with high pressure water blasting – serious injury or
death could result!
-
Never use a machine without current electrical compliance tag
-
Prior to use, visually check plug, lead, entry wires into control box/switch and
motor for damage or frayed wires.
-
Wear thick, try socks when operating and rubber boots
-
Wear appropriate personal protection equipment (PPE) i.e. Protective head,
face/eye, hand, body and footwear
-
When shutting down, turn of power and unplug from socket. Do not pull on wires
to unplug from wall socket
•
If not already connected, connect the high pressure hose to the machine and high
pressure gun to the hose.
•
Connection supply hose to water supply:
-
Important: Use hose with minimum 20 mm inside diameter
-
Required pressurised water supply (not gravity) with minimum of 10 PSI and
~20% more flow that pump flow rate (litres per minute)
•
Turn on the water supply (open tap fully). Water will fill the break tank if fitted
•
Unroll the hose fully ensuring there are no kinks in it
•
Trigger gun to expel any air in the system
LAST CHECKS & START:
•
Check all hoses are connected and check all power leads for damage or hoses for water
leaks
•
Check oil level in the pump. The oil sight glass should be HALF full – not more! If oil need
to be topped up, use SAE10W40 or SAE 15W40 or SAE30 and top up at the Slave Oil
Tank if fitted, otherwise on the pump (Washmate-10)
•
Ensure water supply is wide open and power switched on at socket outlet
•
On the machine, switch on by turning the ON/OFF switch to the ON position or press the
GREEN START button (E15R-43C). The machine will fire up, start pumping and the RED
indicator light will be on (E15R-43C only)
•
Pull the trigger on the gun by pointing the lance in a safe direction.
•
When the trigger is released, the pump is still pumping and water is in by-pass.
•
The E15R-43C is fitted with a timed-by-pass shut-down and will automatically shut down
after a few minutes (usually 2-3 minutes which can be set) if the gun is not triggered
again. To re-start, press the GREEN START button again.
NOTE:
During the first 10 to 12 hours of operation, manufacturing debris like SWARF / LOCTITE
may come through the machine and cause blockages of the high pressure jet. Switch the
machine off, trigger the gun to release stored pressure, remove nozzle and clean if this
occurs.
REMEMBER: Check Oil Levels DAILY!
