Stripe Hog Systems
High Pressure Waterblasting Connection
A High Pressure hose routed from the UHP pump
on the SH8000 to the tool provides high pressure
water to the tool blast head. The manual bypass
valve on the UHP pump and engine RPM are used
to adjust water volume and pressure supplied
to the tool. A control lever on the tool handle
activates a switch that controls the dump valve
(diverter valve) on the UHP pump to engage or
disengage high water pressure water at the tool
blasting head.
When the system is activated, it operates much
like the truck mounted high pressure water sys-
tem. The tool must be moving before the high
pressure is activated and all waterblasting safety
precautions apply.
High pressure hoses and ttings can be danger-
ous if a hose bursts or a tting fails during high
pressure blasting. Outt the tool operator with
proper safety apparel. Hard hat, safety shield or
glasses, gloves, ear protection, etc.
THE SINGLE BLASTING HEAD ON THE TRACTOR OR ANY
OTHER HOG TOOL WILL BE OVERPOWERED BY THE SH8000
HIGH PRESSURE PUMP IF THE SYSTEM IS NOT ADJUSTED
TO THE REDUCED VOLUME FOR A SINGLE BLASTING HEAD.
FAILURE TO ADJUST THE SYSTEM WILL PROVIDE TOO
MUCH PRESSURE TO THE SPRAY HEAD THAT WILL CAUSE
THE RUPTURE DISCS TO BLOW AND COULD CAUSE SEVERE
DAMAGE TO THE UHP SYSTEM AND/OR INJURY TO THE
OPERATOR OR CREW WHEN THE SYSTEM IS ACTIVATED.
WHEN SWITCHING THE UNIT FROM THE MAIN HOG HEADS
TO EQUIPMENT WITH A SINGLE BLASTING HEAD, ALWAYS
ENGAGE THE TRUCK 40K SWITCH WITH THE ENGINE AT IDLE
AND TURN THE DUMP VALVE ON. GRADUALLY INCREASE
THE RPM WHILE ADJUSTING THE MANUAL BYPASS VALVE
UNTIL THE DESIRED PRESSURE AND VACUUM FOR THE
SINGLE BLASTING HEAD IS ACHIEVED. THIS PROCEDURE
MUST BE DONE BEFORE A TRACTOR OR HOG TOOL IS USED
AND MUST NEVER BE OVERLOOKED.
