13.4 - CLEANING OF FILTER’S CARTRIDGE
7.
Reassemble the cartridge and secure the lid with the thumb screw.
Pay attention to the O-Ring
of the lower body during the assembly
: the incorrect sealing of the filter will jeopardise the
proper operation of the sprayer and cause loss of the mixture.
13.5 - PURGING OF RESIDUES FROM FILTER
With the machine in operation and the taps of the manual (P9) or electrical (E9) distributor closed.
Opening the powder mixer tap (P12) (or the self-cleaning filter faucet P25 -
for versions where it is
foreseen) the delivery flow will drag possible sludge to the bottom of the filter within the tank through
the piping (T6) thus partially cleaning the filtering cartridge. Close the tap when the operation is
completed.
When the machine is in operation, check that the drain tap (P12) (or P25) is closed
before opening the main feeder.
