Refer to the CONTROLS INCORPORATED Electronic Engine Controller manual located in
the
MANUFACTURERS' LITERATURE section
of
this manual for operating instructions.

L-55i Oil Plunger Lubricator
To
set lubricator drip flow adjustment, refer to Section 5: PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE -
Lubrication Instructions.
When starting, be sure that all air
is
purged from the high pressure water jetting unit before
connecting the oil line to the pump discharge. Before connecting the oil line to the point of
lubrication, be sure that oil flows from the end of the feed line before it enters the check
valve.
If
oil does not flow, refer to Section 8: REPAIR -

Priming.

Water Plunger Lubricator (Optional)
Open the water supply valve until water is seen trickling from each cartridge flange. The
cartridge flanges have been provided with fittings which deposit water directly onto the
plungers
as
the high pressure pump runs. Packing and plunger lives are directly extended by
this lubrication. The lubricator was factory adjusted for
l/3
gallon (1.2 l)
of
water per
plunger per minute.
Pressure is limited to inlet supply pressure.

Before engaging the clutch, disconnect the high pressure hose from the pump discharge,
then engage the clutch. The pump is now operating and a steady stream
of
water will be
discharged out the high pressure water outlet
(Figure 4-8).
If
the water stream tends to
pulsate, it is an indication that air pockets are in the high pressure fluid cylinder, or the
valves are worn or not operating properly. For corrective action, refer to Section
6:
TROUBLE-SHOOTING - Excessive Pulsation in High Pressure Pump Discharge.
