Mixing pump G 4 X FU 230/400V / Part 2 Overview, operation and service

Operation

5.7.1

Opening the air tap on the spray gun

Figure 61: Switching on

Figure 62: Opening the air tap

1. Turn the pump motor selector switch (1) to "right" position.
2. Point the spray gun toward the wall to be plastered.
3. Ensure that nobody is in the discharge area of the mortar.
4. Open the air tap (2) on the spray gun.
5. The machine will start-up automatically via the pressure switch-off

and the mortar emerges.

The correct mortar consistency is reached, if the mate-
rial mixes on the surface to be sprayed (we recommend
application on wall surfaces from top to bottom). Uniform
mixing and spraying cannot be ensured if the amount
of water is insufficient. This can clog the hoses and the
pumping components are then subjected to greater wear.

5.8

Interruption of work

NOTE

Always observe the setting time of the material to be

processed:
Clean the system and mortar hoses depending on the

setting time of the material and the length of the interrup-

tion (pay attention to outside temperature).
The guidelines of the material manufacturers have to be

observed regarding breaks.

Figure 63: Closing the air tap

1. Close the air tap (1) if you interrupt your work for a short while.

The machine stops.

By opening the air tap (1), the machine will start running again.
