Set the four ball valves to the required operating mode.
Operating mode I OFF
If the water spray system is not required, close the ball valve (1).
Operating mode II ON
If the water spray system is required, set the four ball valves to operating mode II.
Operating mode III Draining water and emptying the tank
If there is a possibility of freezing or before extended downtime we recommend drain-
ing the water from the system completely to prevent damage to the water spray sys-
tem. The engine of the machine should be running to drain the tank faster (for com-
pressed air supply).
Operating mode IV Blowing out spray nozzles and pressure lines
Pressure lines and spray nozzles must be blown out if there is danger of freezing.
The machine drive must be switched on to blow out the spray nozzles. Set the ball
valves to the position specified in operating mode IV and switch on the water spray
system with the key (8) (continuous operation). Leave the system switched on until
only air without water vapour comes out of all spray nozzles. Finally, open the water
filter (6) and drain the filter holder. Screw the filter holder with the filter screen back
onto the filter head.
