Maintenance

Preventive Maintenance

Schedule

Establish a preventive maintenance schedule, based on the pump’s repair history.

Mix Manifold

See mix manifold manual 310654.

Maintenance

Pump Test/Meter Calibration

See ProMix Easy Operation manual. If pumps/meters fail test, see Troubleshooting, page 10.

Wet Cup

Check pump and dispense valve wet-cups daily. Keep filled with Graco Throat Seal Liquid (TSL), Part No. 206995.

Dispense Valve

Storage

 

See dispense valve manual 310655.

Before storing the pump, always flush it, see ProMix Easy Operation manual. Relieve the pressure, page 7.

Pump

See applicable pump manual 310671, 310672, or 310662.

Turbine Alternator

Replace bearings every 2000 hours. See page 19.

Icing

If you experience icing at the pump air manifold:

Reduce pump input air pressure below 80 psi (0.56 MPa, 5.6 bar), if required spray pressure allows.

Reduce moisture in compressed air supply, or use heated air.

Air Filters

If icing persists, see table below.

Check daily. Drain and clean as necessary. See page 15.
