While the machine is running, open the slide gate,
located above the motor, slowly and in stages until
it locks into the guide rod notch.
Switch of the machine by pressing the red “STOP”
button.
To prevent chocking, we recommend wetting the
inside walls of the hose with water or preferably
lime or cement slurry.
1.)
2.)
3.)
During the wetting process with
water it is absolutely necessary
that any excess water is com-
pletely drained from the hose oth-
erwise grains could be washed out
when the machine is started, es-
pecially in the case of coarse grain
materials, such as anchor mortar
with 4 mm maximum grain. This
could cause the hose to choke.
After 10 – 15 seconds the mortar consistency
should have adjusted to the value pre-set on the
water flow meter and be coming out of the coupling
on the pump outlet pulsating slightly but uniformly.
The consistency of the mortar can be adjusted to
the required application by changing the water flow
rate.
Lay the mortar hose so that it can be easily con-
nected before the machine is started.
If you are working with unknown
materials, experience has proved
that it is better to start with a rela-
tively fluid consistency and then
slowly reduce the water volume
with the machine running until the
required consistency is reached
(unknown materials: water flow
meter setting: approx. 600 li-
tre/hour).
NOTE
i
Connect the quick release coupling on the mortar
hose to the male union on the pump outlet.
