SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE

To maintain efficient operationof unit, t h i s shutdown procedure a t t h ecompletion of each day's spraying must be diligently followed:

1. Shut o f f a i r t opump by closing pump ON-OFFair control petcock 202-338.See Fig. 1.

Handle is a t r i g h t a n g l e petcocko body when closed.

2.Relieve material pressure inpump, hose and spray gun by opening drump valve of -ifold. This will allow the material trapped in thesystem to drain back into material container. After ma- t e r i a l has stopped draining, remwe and clean

filter cartridgeor screen, if used. Close drain valve.
