OOTING
Issue: Jaws not staying �ght on the paint cans.
1. Paint build up on the Clamp Frame (M-247) may cause the Clamp Nuts (M-250 and/or M-254) to become worn or loose when forcing
the Jaws (M-244) closed. Clean and inspect the Clamp Frame and replace/re-�ghten the Clamp Nuts as necessary.
Issue: The shake angle is too large
1. The can may be over the maximum of 16 lbs or may have catalyzed solid. Inspect and replace the can.
2. The shaker is receiving too much air pressure. Adjust the control valve (M-257). Line pressure over 150 PSI requires regulator and relief
valve upstream of air hose.
3. The shake angle at start up should be adjusted to 30° (See page 4). The shaker is supplied from the manufacturer with a 30° shake
angle.
Issue: The shaker runs slow and or stops
1. Check the oil. It may be out of oil or fouled with motor oil. Refill and replace the oil as necessary.
2. The shaker is not ge�ng enough air. Check for any of the following causes. The air pressure is low. The air supply is being restricted.
The inlet filter (M-305) / inlet fi�ng (M-242) is blocked. The inlet screw (M-262) is set too low. Adjust the screw un�l one and a half
threads are visible within the opening.
3. The relief valve is stuck open or the final filter is clogged.
4. The valve discs are dirty, seals are missing or damaged, or the piston o-ring (M-265) is worn.
Issue: The shaker is hard star�ng
1. When the compression is OK and the motor moves freely check for bad piston seals, a dirty disc in valve body, air contamina�on
residue, or excess water. It may also be that the shaker is being turned on too slowly, or that the angle adjustment screw (M-262) on the
inlet fi�ng (M-242) is turned in too far.
2. When the compression is OK, but the motor is dragging, it is likely due to not enough air oil, or the improper type of oil.
3. With very low compression, but the motor moves freely, check the piston (M-280), and the piston o-ring (M-265) for damage. There
also may not be enough oil to seal valve discs, or a stuck relief valve.
Issue: Lubricator will not operate
1. Check the oil in the lubricator (M-318), fill as necessary. Check to make sure the adjustment knob is open and set to 4 and that the
flow arrow on the lubricator is poin�ng toward the shaker.
2 Vibra�on during opera�on may be preven�ng drip visibility when mounted onto shaker.
3. Check the bowl of the lubricator for damage, missing gaskets and o-rings, or damaged/crossed threads.
Issue: The shaker uses too much air
1. The shake angle is too large. Adjust it to 30°.
2. Check the relief valve, it may be stuck or broken. Also inspect the piston seals or rod seal (M-282) and replace as necessary.
Issue: The shaker is leaking oil
1. The shaker housing is not sealed to a pedestal or bench. Apply sealant all around the bo�om of the housing and the bolt holes. Seal
the shaker to its moun�ng surface to reduce the majority of opera�on noise.
2. The lubricator (M-318) dial is opened too much. Adjust the lubricator by turning the ver�cal line on the drip rate dial clockwise un�l it
stops and then turn it counter clockwise to number 4.
