Using Your Unit
Operating Instructions
- Remove components from packaging.
- For F5.0L: Attach wand assembly to trigger handle. For F5.0L-PSG: Continue to step 3.
- Pull the green pressure release valve until the red portion of the stem is showing to confirm the unit is not pressurized. [Pressure release symbol ⚠️]
- With the pump handle pressed fully down, hold the unit and unscrew the pump assembly from the tank head to access the filler hole.
- Follow all instructions from the chemical manufacturer when filling the unit. Fill the tank ¾ full with pre-mixed solution. Do not overfill the tank.
- With the pump handle pressed fully down, hold the unit and screw the pump assembly back into the tank head to close the unit.
- To pressurize the tank, rotate the handle of the pump assembly until it is free then pump up the unit. The pressure relief valve will begin leaking air when the tank is fully pressurized. [Pressure relief symbol ⚠️]
- Once the desired pressure has been achieved, push the pump handle down and rotate to lock it in place.
- To begin foaming, point the discharge wand towards the area you wish to foam and squeeze the trigger handle. Release the handle to stop.
Diagram Description: A diagram shows the F5.0L unit with numbered parts: 2. Trigger handle, 3. Pressure relief valve, 4. Discharge hose, 5. Tank, 6. Pump assembly, 9. Discharge wand.
After Use Instructions
- Release air pressure from unit after each use by activating the pressure relief valve. [Pressure release symbol ⚠️]
- Empty out remaining solution and run fresh water through the unit to rinse all parts thoroughly after each use and before storage.
Maintenance and Servicing
Maintenance Instructions
To keep your unit operating properly, periodically perform the following maintenance procedures.
NOTE: Before servicing your unit, release air pressure from the unit by activating the pressure relief valve. [Pressure release symbol ⚠️]
- Check the pump assembly for wear and leaks.
- Check the suction line for debris and clean as needed.
- Periodically lubricate the pump seal with food safe lubricant. To lubricate the pump seal, raise the handle of the pump assembly and apply 5-10 drops of food safe lubricant between the pump and pump sleeve.
- If foam quality decreases, replace wadding with the following steps:
F5.0L Wadding Replacement
