Section 3:
Waterblasting Operation
3.1 Start Up/Shutdown Introduction
Before operating the Stripe Hog, check the fluid
levels in the truck engine, transmission, OMSI
gearbox and hydraulic system. A thorough un-
derstanding of the component systems and their
operation is essential to the proper operation of
the Stripe Hog. Never allow inexperienced and
untrained personnel to operate the Stripe Hog.
This manual and the associated manufacturers’ in-
formation is provided to enhance your knowledge
of the Stripe Hog. Make sure you have read them
carefully and fully understand the truck and all
waterblasting components and systems in theory
and operation.
To make operation as safe and productive as pos-
sible, it is essential to conduct a thorough pre-start
inspection before operating the machine. You
should walk around the unit and visually inspect
the Hog Arm, blasting heads, high pressure hoses,
hydraulic hoses, vacuum hoses, and all waterblast-
ing system components for obvious signs of leaks,
wear and deterioration. The inspection should be
conducted in an orderly and consistent fashion to
ensure all critical points are inspected each time.
Do not operate the unit until all questionable
components are repaired or replaced.
The startup and shutdown procedures described
in this section are for a typical truck chassis
equipped with an automatic or manual transmis-
sion. This information is provided as a general
guide and overview of the process for educational
purposes. The exact procedure for your truck
may be different, depending on the chassis and
the options selected. Hog Technologies includes
a quick reference placard usually attached to the
drivers side sun visor in the cab, that provides
the proper startup and shutdown procedures for
your specific truck.
NOTICE:
ALWAYS CHECK THE HOG HEAD, NOZZLES AND SPRAY
BAR FOR WEAR AND DAMAGE BEFORE EACH SHIFT.
REFER TO HIGH PRESSURE HOSES AND NOZZLES IN THE
WATERBLASTING SYSTEMS SECTION FOR INFORMATION
ON INSPECTING SPRAY BARS AND NOZZLES.
