Overview
Safety & Operational Precautions
To Install (refer to diagram on next page)
1. Remove the tube lock check valves from the enclosed bag and install as shown in the drawing.
2. Mount each of the foam sticks to a suitable surface. They should be mounted so that the last hole (in the cap) hits the bottom of the vehicle. The stick sets should be "mirror-images" of each other once mounted.
3. Run 1/2" I.D. chemical tubing from the "solution pumping source" to the middle of the arch and connect with a tubing tee (not included). From there step down to 3/8" I.D. tubing and connect to the solution check valve. The tubes must be the same length for the best performance.
4. Run 1/4" air tubing from your compressed air supply and push connect it to the 1/4" tube lock of the supplied tee. Run the supplied 5/32" tubing to each stick.

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE: When the unit will be out of service for extended periods, place chemical tube(s) in water and flush the chemical out of the unit to help prevent chemical from drying out and causing build-up. Periodically check and clean chemical strainer and replace if missing. |
