  • Page 26 SOVA SOVA SERIES 7 OPER. PNEUMATIC SPRAYING MACHINE PAGE GETTING ACQUAINTED (UNIT FAMILIARIZATION) As previously indicated, it is important from a SAFE operational standpoint that you , the OPERATOR, know your machine. This means the function of each control as to what happens when it is activated, how it might interact with other functions and any limitations which might exist.
  • Page 27 SOVA SOVA SERIES 7 OPER. PNEUMATIC SPRAYING MACHINE PAGE CONTROL AND COMPONENT FAMILIARIZATION The SOVA™ SERIES 7 GUN is equipped with various controls and adjustment knobs. The controls are located at easily accessible points on the machine and each is dedicated to a specific function for the operation of the unit.
  • Page 28 SOVA SOVA SERIES 7 OPER. PNEUMATIC SPRAYING MACHINE PAGE MATERIAL FEED VALVE This is a quarter turn valve used to control the air flow (ON-OFF) through the feed bowl. This permits the operator to turn the air on-off without disturbing the setting of the throttle valve.
  • Page 29 SOVA SOVA SERIES 7 OPER. PNEUMATIC SPRAYING MACHINE PAGE PAD ADJUSTMENT KNOBS Three (3) knobs are located on top of the pad housing at the gooseneck. These knobs are used to adjust the sealing wear pad. The left knob adjusts the exhaust side of the sealing pad;...
  • Page 30 The SOVA™ SERIES 7 is equipped with a 5HP designated 8AM air motor. The motor is designed and manufactured to REED specifications and offer precise speed control for operational power of the feed wheel which is highly important in that it permits an even flow of material through the delivery hose as required for the application.
  • Page 31 SOVA SOVA SERIES 7 OPER. PNEUMATIC SPRAYING MACHINE PAGE INSIDE NOTE: WATER SEPARATOR SHOWN IS AN OPTIONAL ACCESSSORY. INSTALLATION INSIDE IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. 13. FEED BOWL The feed bowl is that component which resembles a bowl on the outside and contains a number of pockets on the inside.
  • Page 32 Having READ and UNDERSTOOD the previous pages on SAFETY and CONTROL FAMILIARIZATION, you are now in a position to learn how to operate the REED GUNCRETE SOVA™ SERIES 7 . If you have not read the previous pages, we suggest you do so before proceeding.
  • Page 33 SOVA SOVA SERIES 7 OPER. PNEUMATIC SPRAYING MACHINE PAGE N O T E The SOVA™ utilizes compressed air to drive the motor and to convey the material through the hose. As a result, the production and efficiency of the machine is highly dependent on the amount of available compressed air.

  • Page 36 SOVA SOVA SERIES 7 OPER. PNEUMATIC SPRAYING MACHINE PAGE B. SYMPTOM – INSUFFICIENT VOLUME TO THE NOZZLE CORRECTIVE ACTION *Pad not completely seated in the pad housing. Pad must be inserted far enough into pad housing to allow the inlet and outlet ports of the pad to align with the feed wheel pockets. When pads are removed, wear patterns should be regularly checked to assure the sealing portions of the rubber face are in alignment with the outer rim, the center divider and the inside hub portion of the feed bowl.
  • Page 37 SOVA SOVA SERIES 7 OPER. PNEUMATIC SPRAYING MACHINE PAGE *Uneven feed rate maintained into the hopper by material loading system. E. SYMPTOM – FEED WHEEL RUNNING TOO SLOW OR STOPS CORRECTIVE ACTION *Insufficient air supply to motor. Check air motor valve that it is fully opened. Check motor throttle valve that it is set properly.
  • Page 38 SOVA SOVA SERIES 7 OPER. PNEUMATIC SPRAYING MACHINE PAGE G. SYMPTOM – HOSE BLOCKAGE CAUSE – Often the cause of hose blockage is the result of: *Using oversize material *Operating with an insufficient supply of air *Feeding the hose too much material *A prehydration of the material inside the hose *Not clearing the hose after turning off material feed *Sharp bends or kinks in the hose...
  • Page 39 SOVA SOVA SERIES 7 OPER. PNEUMATIC SPRAYING MACHINE PAGE H. SYMPTOM – INSUFFICIENT COMPRESSED AIR CORRECTIVE ACTION – HOW MUCH AIR IS ENOUGH? Most problems occurring on the average gunning jobs are the result of improper application of air or insufficient amount of air. *Make sure the compressor is of adequate size, is properly adjusted and capable of producing maximum capacity.
  • Page 40 How good is any of the equipment you own? It is only as good as it is MAINTAINED. Even the finest equipment manufactured requires attention and care. The REED GUNCRETE SOVA™ SERIES 7 MACHINE is no different. A good well planned and carried out preventative maintenance program will enhance a properly operating unit as well as the safety of those operating and using the equipment.
  • Page 41 SOVA SOVA SERIES 7 MAINT PNEUMATIC SPRAYING MACHINE PAGE SCHEDULED INSPECTION The main purpose of accomplishing scheduled inspections is to identify and detect any potential malfunction before it can expand into a major problem.

  • Page 50 SOVA SOVA SERIES 7 MAINT PNEUMATIC SPRAYING MACHINE PAGE FELT SEAL Inside the feed wheel housing is a felt seal ring that is used to retain the felt seal in position. The purpose of this felt seal is to prevent material from escaping out of the bottom of the housing assembly.
  • Page 51 SOVA SOVA SERIES 7 MAINT PNEUMATIC SPRAYING MACHINE PAGE RUBBER SEALING PAD This component is a major ingredient in the operation of the machine. It is used to seal off all the pockets loaded with material, except for one, allowing the air to be directed to the intake opening of the feed wheel and exhausting the material air mixture through the outlet and into the gooseneck.
  • Page 52 SOVA SOVA SERIES 7 MAINT PNEUMATIC SPRAYING MACHINE PAGE PAD ADJUSTMENT As noted previously, the rubber pad acts as a seal between the back-up assembly and top surface of the feed wheel. As a result, the control of excessive dusting during operation and the efficiency for successful gunning is very dependent on the adjustment of the pad.

Every effort should be made to keep DOWNWARD PRESSURE adjustments on the sealing pad EQUAL on the three (3) studs.
  • Page 54 THE RUBBER SEALING PADS The best method of reconditioning rubber pads is also done on a Blanched grinder. Some REED owners report that they get an acceptable reconditioning job by freezing the pad and refacing the frozen rubber on motorized wood plane.
  • Page 55 SOVA SOVA SERIES 7 MAINT PNEUMATIC SPRAYING MACHINE PAGE RISER PLATES Riser plates are specially manufactured and precision ground parts. No substitute should be used to raise the feed wheel assembly to its proper position. These parts are not subject to wear and consequently need not be reconditioned but they must be thoroughly cleaned prior to installing.
