The issue may be due to the dump valve operating logic. When the vacuum switch is turned on, it activates the solenoid valve supplying hydraulic fluid to the vacuum blower. If the dump valve is hydraulically controlled and shares the same hydraulic circuit, turning on the vacuum could cause a pressure change that unintentionally opens the dump valve. Another possibility is an electrical or control system conflict where activating the vacuum switch sends a signal that overrides or shuts off the dump valve circuit.
Hog Technologies is excited to welcome you and your crew to the Stripe Hog Operators’ Team. Together we embrace the challenge of constantly developing our equipment, knowledge and skills so that our highways will be safer for all who rely on them and our pavement surfaces will last longer for those who pay for them.
Hog Technologies warrants its components to be free from defects in material and workmanship while under normal use and service. Hog Technologies will, at its option, either repair or replace free of charge any such part that appears to us to be defective in material or workmanship during the warranty period.

Section 2 - Stripe Hog Systems The shutoff cartridge is located inside the body of the diverter valve assembly. It is generally open and controlled by the DUMP VALVE switch in the cab switch panel. When the DUMP VALVE switch is on, the shutoff cartridge is closed by the hydrau- lic cylinder forcing all high pressure water to the blasting head.

Questions and answers
sk 2000 machine is a problem on switching dump valve and vacuum valve that mains when i switch vacuum valve on dump valve is automatically become off
The issue may be due to the dump valve operating logic. When the vacuum switch is turned on, it activates the solenoid valve supplying hydraulic fluid to the vacuum blower. If the dump valve is hydraulically controlled and shares the same hydraulic circuit, turning on the vacuum could cause a pressure change that unintentionally opens the dump valve. Another possibility is an electrical or control system conflict where activating the vacuum switch sends a signal that overrides or shuts off the dump valve circuit.
