Overview
The 1-Hose Uni-Body Rinse / LC Foam System is a two function cleaning system with a medium volume foamer. This venturi injection system uses standard city water pressure (35 - 125 PSI) to draw and blend chemical concentrate into the water stream to create an accurately diluted solution. Rich, clinging foam is created by injecting compressed air into the solution to greatly increase volume and coverage ability. The foam is then projected through the discharge hose and fan nozzle at distances up to 12 feet. Rinse through the same hose and nozzle, or use an optional more powerful rinse nozzle.
Safety & Operational Precautions
To Install (refer to diagram on next page)
Set the chemical dilution ratio by threading one of the color coded metering tips into each chemical check valve. See chemical labels for dilution ratio recommendation or consult your chemical supplier.

Problem | Possible Cause / Solution | |
---|---|---|
Startup | Maintenance | |
A) Foam surges and/or hose "bucks". B) Foamer will not draw chemical. C) Foam too wet. D) Foam does not clean properly (too dry). E) Using too much chemical. F) Water/chemical backing up into air line. G) Water backing up into chemical container. H) Air/chemical solution backing up into water line. | 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 1, 3, 4, 7, 8, 9 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 1, 4, 6, 11 5 |

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. |
