SECTION 5: MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR
Using the Oil Skimmer System
The oil skimmer system is most effective if used when
the cleaning solution in the sump is cool.
The frequency at which you must remove the oil from
the wash solution will depend on machine usage. Under
typical operating conditions you may need to remove
the oil every day.
IMPORTANT: The skimmer motor is equipped with a
thermal overload switch which protects the skimmer
from overheating. If you attempt to use the oil skimmer
system when the wash solution is hot, the thermal
overload will probably trip and the motor will shut off
until it cools. Under normal skimming conditions (when
the wash solution is cool) the thermal overload should
not trip.
To remove oil from the cleaning solution, perform the
following procedure:
Step 1:
Allow the machine to sit idle for at least 30 minutes to al-
low the oil to float to the surface of the wash solution.
Step 2:
Ensure that the oil collection container is in place (See
figure below), then turn the skimmer switch to the “ON”
position.
Step 3:
Allow the oil skimmer to operate until it is no longer
extracting oil from the cleaning solution.
TIP: While extracting oil from the cleaning solution,
oil will flow off the wiper blades in a fine continuous
stream. Water will flow off the blades in droplets. Once
droplets begin to flow off the wiper blades, stop the
skimmer motor.
