Maintenance
Procedures not specifically explained in this manual must
be performed only by a qualified technician.
TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY FROM ACCIDENTAL OPERATION:
Turn off the tool, detach the air supply, safely discharge any residual air pressure
in the tool, and release the throttle and/or turn the switch to its off position before
performing any inspection, maintenance, or cleaning procedures.
TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY FROM TOOL FAILURE:
Do not use damaged equipment. If abnormal noise, vibration,
or leaking air occurs, have the problem corrected before further use.
Follow all guidelines regarding materials being extracted,
including MSDS instructions and EPA regulations.
Cleaning, Maintenance, and Lubrication
Note: These procedures are in addition to the regular checks and maintenance
explained as part of the regular operation of the air-operated tool.
1. BEFORE EACH USE, inspect the general
condition of the Drum Extractor. Check for:
• loose hardware or housing
• misalignment or binding of moving parts
• cracked or broken parts
• any other condition that may
affect its safe operation.
2. AFTER EACH USE, clean the exterior of
the Drum Extractor, wipe with a clean, damp
cloth using a mild detergent or mild solvent.
Do not immerse the tool in liquids.
3. To clean the interior of the Drum Extractor,
place the lower section into a container of mild
detergent or mild solvent. Connect the Extractor
to an air compressor to force detergent or
solvent through the tool and into an appropriate
waste container until the detergent or solvent
flow is clean. When finished, disconnect the air
compressor, releasing all remaining pressure
from the tool. Remove the Extractor from
the detergent/solvent and dry thoroughly.

4. Daily - Air Supply Maintenance:
Every day, maintain the air supply according
to the component manufacturers' instructions.
Drain the moisture filter regularly.
Performing routine air supply maintenance
will allow the tool to operate more safely
and will also reduce wear on the tool.
5. Store the Drum Extractor in a safe, dry,
clean location out of reach of children.
