The water pressure is adjusted manually at the hydrant. The nucleation row is
equipped with an automatic pressure regulating valve; the other rows are admitted
with the incoming pressure.
2.6. Switching off the snowmaker:
1. Turn off the water supply at the hydrant and disconnect the hose for water
supply from the snowmaker.
2. When no more water comes out of the nozzle ring, switch off the compressor
and the fan.
3. Switch off the heating
4. Check oil level at the compressor and refill if necessary.
ATTENTION! When relocating the snowmaker, don’t forget to raise the jacks after
attaching the snowmaker.
2.7. Continuous operation:
Of course the snowmaking direction of the snowmaker must be changed from time
to time in order to assure a constant distribution of the snow on the slope.
With the optional equipment automatic swivel mechanism, snow can be made on
a larger surface (see chapter 2.9.).
Under normal operating conditions the oil level at the compressor should be
checked approx. every 10 hours; if necessary refill with oil. On extremely steep
slopes the oil consumption may be a little bit higher.
ATTENTION! Use M O B I L RARUS SHC 1024 or equivalent oil only!
Be sure not to fill in too much oil – this can cause damage of the compressor.
