-
tions.

THE TRUCK TO BE PLACED IN WORK MODE WITH THE
WATERBLASTING SYSTEM ACTIVATED BY FOLLOWING THE
STEPS IN THE START UP PROCEDURE.
1. Perform steps 1 thru 6 in the typical packing
replacement procedure.
2.
Thread the gland nut back into the stuffing
box 3 full turns. Make sure at least 3 threads
are engaged in the stuffing box.
3. Pull the plunger out until it is against the
pony rod. It is important for the plunger to be
against the pony rod to prevent damage to the
plunger from being forced out of the stuffing
box suddenly by charge water pressure which
will be activated in the next step.
4. Make sure both water supply valves are open
and all personnel are clear of all waterblast-
ing components. Activate the truck and wa-
terblasting system following the steps in the
Startup Procedure. Do not activate the PTO
switch.
5. Make sure all personnel are well clear of all
waterblasting components and turn on the
charge pump for 5 seconds then turn it off.
6. Shutdown the water blasting system and re-
turn the truck to the service position.
7. Remove the gland nut from the back of the
stuffing box. The charge water pressure should
have pushed the damaged packing out.
8. If packing is still stuck, repeat steps 1 through
7. The damaged packing is usually pushed out
on the first try, however, several attempts may
be required in some cases.
NOTICE:
IF THIS OPTION FAILS, THE HIGH PRESSURE MANIFOLD
WILL NEED TO BE OPENED TO REMOVE THE STUFFING
BOX AND EXTRACT THE PACKING.
Once the packing has been removed from the
stuffing box, continue with steps 6 thru 19 in the
typical packing replacement procedure.
DANGER
ENGAGING THE PTO SWITCH DURING THE STUCK PACKING
PROCEDURE WILL ENGAGE THE UHP PUMP DRIVE SYSTEM
CAUSING SEVERE DAMAGE TO THE GLAND NUT, STUFFING
BOX AND PLUNGER. IT COULD ALSO RESULT IN INJURY
TO PERSONNEL. ALWAYS MAKE SURE THE PTO SWITCH IS
NOT ACTIVATED AT ANY TIME DURING THE STUCK PACKING
REMOVAL PROCEDURE.
