7.7 PRELIMINARY OPERATIONS
Before carrying out any washing operations,
check that the stopper in the bottom of the wash
basin is in place.
Also make sure that the non-woven fabric filter
(No05) is correctly positioned on the filtering
tank.
7.8 MANUAL CLEANING WITH BRUSH
Put the ON/OFF switch (No17) in the ON posi-
tion to dispense water sucked up from the collec-
tion tank through the brush. Then manually clean
the parts.
The machine is supplied with a mobile grid
(No04) placed on the washing tank to hold the
parts whencarrying out manual washing using
the atomiser brush or air gun (No02) provided.
7.9 MANUAL CLEANING WITH BRUSH
When the washing tank is full of water mixed
with paint, to empty it proceed as follows:
1. Add the coagulant in the percentages indica-
ted by the supplier of the paint product.
2. Turn the ON/OFF switch to ON and turn the
Occasionally poor functioning of the machine
may occur. In these instances, one must refrain
from using the machine and provide the neces-
sary maintenance before incurring accidents or
damage.
If the Aquaplastic machine doesn't supply liquid
to the atomizer after having been supplied with
compressed air and after having opened the tap,
it may signify that the tubes are blocked.
The same reason can also be valid with regard to
the pneumatic system.
Call the manufacturer for any information or with
any doubts before intervening.
The possible malfunctions, causes and solutions
are described as follows:
8. MALFUNCTIONS AND SOLUTIONS
- 17 -
pneumatic mixer regulator (No18) knob on the
front of the machine clockwise. Air will begin to
come out of the mixer tuve (No07). This will
make the water bubble with a mixing action.
By continuing to turn the regulator knob clockwi-
se, the intensity of the air jets and the relative
mixing power will increase.
Adjust mixing intensity carefully; improper use
could cause spurts of liquid/paint.
For this reason, it is advisable to use minimum
intensity if mixing is performed out with a partia-
lly empty tank.
3. When the paint is coagulated, turn off the
pneumatic mixer (No18) by turning the relevant
knob anticlockwise.
4. Remove the stopper from the bottom of the
washing tank.
5. Wait for the washing tank to empty complete-
ly.
6. The filtering phase will last a few seconds
depending on the degree of cleanliness of the
nonwoven fabric filter. Wait until all the mixture
goes through the filter. The coagulated paint will
remain in the filter, while the re-usable clean
water will be deposited in the lower collection
tank.
7. Replace the stopper in the bottom of the
washing tank.
To prevent spurts, cover the upper tank with the
plastic lid provided with the machine.
