5.6 AGENT QUALITY

OPEN SLIGHTLY
INSTALL CAP
TO CLEAN OUT IF PLUGGED
Remove screw #2, spring #3, and knob #4. Inspect the
underside of the knob. Make sure the agent passages are
clear. Do not scratch the flat face of the knob. Inspect the 2
holes in the top of the Control Block #5. If they are plugged,
pull pins #1, remove Block Assembly and clean out Pickup
Tube and holes.

5.7 SHUT DOWN AFTER USE (FLUSHING)

DECON/pak should be flushed with water after each use to prevent agent concentrate from drying out inside of the Control Block
and Percentage Knob.
1) Reduce pump pressure to 100 psi or less.
2) Remove the nozzle and/or hose from the quick-connect on the front of the Control Block.
3) Remove the Circle Cotters and pull out the two Pull Pins that hold the Control Unit to the tank.
4) Pull straight up to remove the Control Unit and Pickup Tube from the tank.
5) Make sure the Percentage Knob is NOT in the RINSE position.
6) Install the Cap on the outlet of the Control Block.
7) Turn the Flow Control valve until a trickle of clean water is flowing out the end of the Pickup Tube.
8) Turn the Percentage Knob back and forth to make sure all agent passages are flushed.
9) Shut off water and reinstall the Control Unit on the tank and insert the Pull Pins and circle cotters.
10) Remove the Cap.
The exterior of the DECON/pak can be washed off with the hose with the percentage knob in the RINSE position.

5.8 STORAGE

The DECON/pak can be stored with agent concentrate in it.
Make sure the control block and valve assembly is mounted
on the tank and the fill port is securely closed to prevent
evaporation. Storage in the upright position is recommended
to avoid agent leaking when the DECON/pak is not in use.

ROTATE
TO SHUT DOWN
To prevent concentrate from drying in the agent passages the following
is recommended. While still connected to water supply, remove Circle
Cotters and Pull Pins. Remove Control Unit from tank. Attach the Cap
directly to the Quick-Connect on the Control Block. Turn the valve half
way on till the discharge is agent free. This will back flush a small
amount of water through the agent passage. Rotate the Percentage
Knob back and forth to make sure all agent passages are flushed.
