Startup procedure
Preparing the pump for startup
Follow this procedure to make sure the pump is ready
for operation:
•
Before the beginning of a shift
•
After initial installation
•
After installation of one of the HyPlex Prime
maintenance kits
1. Flush debris from all water supply hoses before con
-
necting them to the pump.
CAUTION
Debris in the water supply line can cause
extensive damage to high-pressure components.
Such damage IS NOT covered by warranty.
2. Fill the pump case with a recommended oil (see the
list on Page 6). Fill the oil reservoir to the fill mark.
CAUTION
Never operate the pump without oil or with dirty oil—
this can cause extensive damage and

3. Make sure water lines, air lines, and drain lines are
correctly connected and routed.
CAUTION
Cutting equipment and nozzles must be installed when
operating the pump. Operating the pump without proper
cutting nozzle will damage high-pressure components.
4. Clear tools, parts, and rags from around the pump.
Check in and around the pump for foreign objects
and debris.
5. Open any operator-supplied inlet water and air
valves; check all connections for leaks.
CAUTION
Operating the pump without an adequate supply
of inlet water will cause damage.
Do not tighten any loose or leaking connections while the
pump is operating or while the line is pressurized.
6. Make sure the belt guard is attached.
7. Place the main electrical disconnect in the ON
position.
8. Release the E-stop button(s).
