Windsor 98165 warranty Daily Maintenance, Periodic Maintenance, Servicing The Filter, Gaskets

Caution: Strippers and some detergents produce foam which will damage the vac motors. The vac shut-off may not be sensitive to all foams. Be sure to check that the tank is not filling with foam. Use a defoaming agent to avoid pulling foam through vac motor. Should vac motor become wet, remove source of overflow and immediately run vac motor open to dry.

DAILY MAINTENANCE:

(At the end of each working day):

1.After each use, rinse tank with fresh water. Periodically inspect the recovery tank and decontaminate if necessary, using a Hospital Grade Virucide or a 1:10 bleach to water solution. Waste water should be disposed of properly.

2.Remove head assembly and allow tank to dry.

3.Remove filters for cleaning or to allow to dry.

4.Inspect hoses for wear. Frayed or cracked hoses should be replaced to avoid vacuum loss.

5.Inspect power cord for wear. This cable will lay on wet surfaces. To prevent electrical shock replace cords with frayed or cracked insulation immediately.

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE:

(Every six to twelve months):

1.Check filter for wear, replace dirt saturated filters that do not respond to normal cleaning.

2.Inspect gasket seals and replace those which have begun to leak.

3.Examine carbon motor brushes and commutator, replace or repair as necessary. See page 8.

SERVICING THE FILTER:

The filter is accessed by lifting the head assembly off the tank.

To remove the filter, pn 34193, loosen the black knob, pn 48046, located in the center. This knob should always be “finger tight”, don’t over-tighten.

With both wet and dry applications be sure to frequently clean the filter. This is especially true when the vacuum is being used with strippers and wax.

Allow the filter to dry after being used for wet pick- up.

NOTE: Filters used for wet pick-up including stripper must be thoroughly cleaned before being allowed to dry.

Worn filters can affect vacuum performance. Replace the filter when it becomes worn out and normal cleaning will not restore vac performance.

GASKETS:

There are several gaskets in the Titan which must have a good seal for the machine to operate properly.

The gaskets on the vac motors should be replaced together in the event that one wears out and begins to leak.

The gasket inside the head assembly must contact the tank all around. When repairing this gasket, pn 99862, apply glue to the ends and at the corners to insure long life. Any instant adhesive which does not attack ABS plastic will work, (CA40H by 3M or equivalent).

There is a large gasket between the tank plate, pn 62307, and motor support/sound plate, pn 62370 (twin), pn 62371 (single). In the unlikely event this gasket begins to leak, separate the two plates as shown in the assembly drawing on page 9 and remove the old gasket completely, then apply the new gasket pn 35107 (both twin and single), taking care to line it up correctly.

To replace the vac hose elbow gasket, pn 35103, it will be necessary to remove the main cover and loosen the nut which holds the elbow in place. Always be sure the cover seats in the groove on the elbow when putting it back on.

The gasket, pn 35066, located inside the filter cage, pn 27240, must be in place to insure that no fluid enters the vac motor if an over flow should occur.
