6.3 - PRELIMINARY OPERATIONS
Positioning of the machine
Place the machine in the most horizontal possible
position: the maximun gradient allowed is 5° both
lengthwise and sidewise.
The machine must be placed at that point on the jobsite
where you can take best advantage of the hoses
operating range.
Leave at least 80 cm. of clear space around the
machine and set up a working area free of hoses
and dangerously protruding edges.
Make sure that the bonnet
is tightly closed with the
safety screw (14).
After completing maintenance or repair work,
make sure that all the safety devices have been
put back in place and that no tools have been left
inside the canopy, the mixer or the hopper.
Hoses
Lay the hoses down and at the same time check them to
make sure they are in good conditions.
While pumping is in progress, the first 10 m of hose will
swing back and forth some centimetres. It is better to
keep that section of hose raised above the floor in order
to avoid the rubbing of the hose on edges or abrasive
surfaces and not to increase the wear and tear on the
hoses themselves.
The following hoses have to be used:
• for the first 20 m special hose Ø 50 x 69 mm.
• for the extension standard hoses Ø 50 x 66 mm.
• terminal of 10 m Ø 40 x 53 mm.
Use always the complete hose length (20 + 10 + 10)
even if exceeding the working needs.
Shorter hose lengths will cause discontinuous spraying.
Use only original hoses and couplings.
The connection between hoses and couplings
must be done by TURBOSOL PRODUZIONE
S.P.A. or by companies directly authorized.
For no reason TURBOSOL PRODUZIONE S.P.A.
shall be liable for whatsoever injury or damage to
persons and things resulting from the use of non-
original hoses and couplings.
Use only hoses supplied by TURBOSOL
PRODUZIONE S.P.A., specific for this type of machine.
With non-original hoses the unit will not perform
correctly.
Anchoring the hoses
The hose line must be properly anchored: use the hoses-
belts which are supplied with the machine to anchor the
vertical parts and eventually the appropiate hose-bend at
the floor.
Make sure that the
air hose is not bent
at anchoring point.
The before mentio-
ned hose has to be
anchored separa-
tely from the mortar
hose.
Make sure that the
coupling of the mor-
tar and air hose
are locked tightly.
