Use only original hoses and couplings. The connection between hoses and couplings must be done by TURBOSOL PRODUZIONE S.P.A. or by companies directly authorized. Make sure that the bonnet is tightly closed with the For no reason TURBOSOL PRODUZIONE S.P.A.
Make sure that the mortar hoses are correctly anchored The longer hoses (20 m) are always connected together at the building in order to avoid dangerous shaking due to the machine and then the shorter hoses until the to the strokes. connection to the gun.

Usually, when machine stand-by, operator move by-pass open the tie-rod, remove the inspec- tion plugs of the delivery valve (41), remove the rubber ball valve (42), and pour some slurry in the valve body (43). Then place back the ball valve and the inspection plug, finally close tight the tie-rod and start again.

8 - TROUBLE SHOOTING 8.1 - THE MORTAR DOES NOT COME OUT OF THE GUN Blockage of the spraygun. Blockage of the mortar hose. A mix that is too poor, a hardened crust of material or a An improper mix design (see 6.2.) or a long break could pebble or a deflector of small size for the material being determine the blockage of the mortar delivery hose.
8.2 - OTHER INCONVENIENTS Blockage of the valves. Loose belt A mix too poor (check 6.2.) can cause the valve’s blockage. • The belt slides and the mortar pressure gauge shows a pressure • lower than 20 bar.
