OPERATION
A�er installa�on, clamp the can firmly, but avoid crushing the can. Clamp mostly empty cans and aerosol cans with lid toward clamp handle. Tighten
square gallons securely with the can lid straight up, the long sides of the can against the clamp jaws, and the corners res�ng on the jaw cradles.
During opera�on, stay near the shaker while shaking square gallon or aerosol cans to ensure they do not leak or become loose. Aerosol cans only require
a short shake �me to loosen the internal agita�on ball.
Start and stop the shaker by quickly opening and closing the control valve (M-257)about 1/4 turn. If the shaker stops exactly at the center posi�on or is not
ge�ng enough oil, it may not start automa�cally. Close the control valve and cock the can clamp to one side then open the control valve to re-start.
Check that the lubricators drip rate adjustment knob is set to 4. Adjust the lubricator by turning the ver�cal line on the drip rate dial clockwise un�l it stops
and then turn it counter clockwise to number 4. Each �me the shaker is started, the lubricator may take a few seconds to start dripping oil. A drip rate of
once every 15 to 20 seconds is suitable. Do not force the adjustment knob or screw. If it is not working, check the oil level and see TROUBLESHOOTING on
page 6.
Check the oil level once a week or more o�en as follows:
- Unscrew the lubricator bowl and dump any watery/milky oil out.
- Refill the oil to the level mark
- Carefully reinstall the bowl making sure the bowl gasket ring is in place and the bowl is screwed on straight.
- Check/adjust the shake angle if the air pressure at the shaker is over 120 PSI (780 kPa) with an air line at maximum normal pressure as follows:
A) Clamp up a full one-gallon round can of paint
B) Start the shaker
C) Loosen the 3⁄8 inch lock nut at the adjustment screw on the air inlet fi�ng and adjust the screw to obtain a total shaking angle mo�on of about 30°
(See below).
D) Stop the shaker and �ghten the lock nut while holding adjustment.
Use a non silicone spray lubricant to re-lubricate the clamp screw and grease for both Zerk fi�ngs once every three months. (See below) Lubricate more
o�en in severe duty, outdoor, and or dirty areas.
Grease the crank pin Zerk (one shot) through vent hole when can clamp is rotated le� to stop. Use more air tool oil to avoid internal rust if you have heavy
air line moisture, and install a filter. Check that the lubricator is oiling each �me you stop shaker.

There are two Zerk fi�ngs on the shaker that require
lithium-based chassis
the main housing, the other is inside the main housing assembly. It can only be seen
when the shaker is at a 30° angle. Rotate the shaker manually through a cycle un�l the
Zerk fi�ng is visible for lubrica�on. The total angle is 30° when the Zerk fi�ng is just fully
visible in the hole or, the total angle is 30° when the angle of the clamp frame (M-247)
mo�on matches 30° angle shown to the le�. The access hole in the top of the shaker
housing should never have oil poured into it. It is only to allow access to the internal Zerk
fi�ng to grease.
