NOTICE
Failure to flush prior to material curing in the
system will result in damage to system and may
require replacement of all system parts in contact
with the material.

NOTICE
The fluid/drain purge valve must be flushed to
prevent material hardening in fluid/drain purge
valve. If that is not sufficient, remove, disassemble,
and clean the valve then reinstall.
• Flush if the materials in the system are about to
reach their cure time.
• Flush any time the flow rate starts to decrease and
there are no clogs in the system, as this is a sign
that the material is starting to thicken and cure.
• Always flush the system at least twice, draining all
water between flushes then replacing with clean
water.
• Flush using water only.

6.
When the material level in the hopper is within a
few inches of the material inlet at the bottom:
a.
Scrape the material down the sides of the
hopper.
b.
Fill the hopper with water as the material
runs out and continue dispensing.
c.
Scrub the walls of the hopper with a scrub
brush.
7.
When water begins to exit the applicator outlet,

sediments from the system.
8.
Once heavy sediment has been flushed, pump
the remaining contaminated water out of the
hopper.
9.
Turn the motor power switch (S) OFF.
