SECTION 4
PRE-OPERATION
• Pump has not been properly flushed with clean water
after use, or
• Pump has not been used for a period of time.
This problem is easily fixed by wetting the valves. To wet
the pump valves:
a) Disconnect the spray lance from the gun itself
(removing the restriction of the nozzle), run the pump
and …
b) Squeeze the gun trigger so liquid flows unrestricted
from the gun body. This liquid can be directed into the
tank opening. Flow may take a few seconds.
c) Reconnect the spray lance to the gun
This procedure should successfully prime the pump.
When not spraying for any length of time, switch the pump
off or disconnect the unit from the battery.
After the initial start-up procedure is successfully
completed, the sprayer is ready for operation.
Go to section 5, Operation.
NOTE
It is important to check that the pump is
fully primed and operates properly.
If this is not done the sprayer will not
function propery.
NOTE
The 15L/min Flojet pump will continuously
run bypassing liquid to the tank while the
spray gun is closed.
CAUTION
!
When the tank becomes empty, the pump
will continue to run. Running the pump dry
temporarily will not cause damage.
However, avoid letting the pump run dry
for long periods of time because damage
may occur from over heating.
CAUTION
!
The 15L/min Shurflo pump models should not be
operated at more than 3.0 Bar (43psi).
Exceeding this pressure may damage the pump
and/or overheat the wiring loom.
