Foam Marker
Air Pump Filter
The air pump fi lter should be inspected
and cleaned weekly in normal operating
conditions. More often in very dusty
conditions. Otherwise, clean as often as
experience dictates.
Foam Marker Cabinet
It’s also a good idea to use an air hose to
blow out the cabinet and air pump motor
cavity after each 50 hours of operation. (Or
more often in very dusty conditions.)
Do not drain the tank & plumbing for storage as it
is better to store the unit wet rather than dry.
NOTE
If you experience freezing temperatures during
the Off season, use an anti-freeze solution rather
than a weak foam solution in the above steps.
NOTE
Foam Markers
Tank
Keep dirt and debris out of the tank at all
times.
The foam marker is protected by:
• A 50 mesh fi lter under the cabinet, &
• A 100 mesh fi lter located in the line
before the liquid orifi ce.
These may need cleaning periodically,
depending on cleanliness of operations.
End-of-Season Storage
To prepare the foam marker for storage,
following these steps:
1 Drain the tank by removing the fi lter
bowl.
2 Clean fi lter and replace fi lter bowl.
3 Add approximately 10 litres of weak
foam solution mixture to the tank.
4 Using an air hose, blow the cabinet
clean.
5 Clean the inlet air-fi lter (page 5.8).
6 Protect unplugged connectors from
the weather.
Clean the air fi lter regularly. Blow out the casinet every 50 hours.
