NOTICE
Servicing, or modification, of this unit with parts not listed in this manual may cause the unit to operate improperly. Do not use unauthorized parts when servicing the unit.
Use of an air lubricator before the unit may result in diminished performance and damage to the unit. Do not use an air lubricator before the unit.
Moisture in the air lines will damage the pump and diminish the pumps life. The air must be filtered, clean, dry and free of moisture. If needed, install an air dryer before the unit.
PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT
Please dispose of packaging materials, old machine components, and hazardous fluids in an environmentally safe way according to local waste disposal regulations.
WARNING
Performing any maintenance with the unit turned ON, plugged into an electrical power source and connected to the air supply may serious injury or death. Always ensure that the unit has been turned OFF, unplugged from the electrical power source, and disconnected from the air supply before conducting any maintenance.
Servicing, or modification, of this unit with parts not listed in this manual may cause the unit to operate improperly. Do not use unauthorized parts when servicing the unit.
Maintaining Your Unit
To keep your unit operating properly, periodically perform the following maintenance procedures:
- Inspect the pump for wear and leaks.
- Inspect all hoses for leaks or excessive wear. Make sure all hose clamps are in good condition and properly secured.
- Replace the filter located within the air regulator as needed. Clean by unthreading the air regulator bowl from the air regulator.
- Check the suction line and strainer for debris and clean as needed.
- Drain your air compressor tank on a regular basis to help extend pump life. An air source with a high moisture content will accelerate pump wear.
Note: If your air source has a high moisture content, install a water separator (sold separately) before the unit.
Servicing Your Unit
Most repairs on the unit can be performed with the following tools:
- Crescent wrench (2x)
- 7/16 in. (11 mm) open-ended wrench
- #2 Phillips head screwdriver
- #3 Phillips head screwdriver
- Flat head screwdriver
- Hose cutters
- Thread seal tape
- Knife
Troubleshooting Your Unit
If your unit is not operating properly, try using these troubleshooting tips:
| Issue | Solution |
|---|---|
| Air Regulator Bowl or Air Filter has debris such as water, oil, or rust particles | Clean by unthreading the air regulator bowl from the air regulator. |
| Pump is cycling improperly due to lack of air pressure | The needle valve is open too far. Close and readjust the needle valve as described in the operation section. Ensure proper foaming chemical is being used. |
| The solution backs up into the air regulator bowl. | The check valve needs to be replaced. |
| Foam comes out wet, no matter where the needle valve is positioned | Check for proper air pressure on the air gauge. The air regulator is factory set at 50 psi (3.4 bar). Operating range is 40 to 80 psi (2.8 to 5.5 bar) with 3.5 to 8 CFM (99.1 to 226.5 l/min). The check valve may need to be replaced. |
| The unit operates at a reduced pressure | Check the suction line and strainer for debris or damage. Clean or replace as needed. To prevent damage to the unit, the strainer must always be used. Check the air compressor supplying the unit. If the pressure is less than 40 psi, (2.8 bar) turn the unit off until the compressor can catch up. If the air supply is 50 psi (3.4 bar) or above, check the air gauge, which should read near 50 psi (3.4 bar). If the air gauge reads more or less than 50 psi (3.4 bar), adjust the pressure by turning the knob on the top of the air regulator. |
