Lippert TI-276 Manual

Purpose

The purpose of this document is to illustrate the proper way to touch-up paint on a chassis. Figure 1 shows a
section of the frame before this procedure. Figure 2 shows that same section of the frame after this procedure.
NOTE: The paint required for frame touch-ups is PN 2022001419 - Spray Paint - Anthracite Black Texture
Aerosol - 15oz. can

Preparation

Compressed air can cause particles and debris to fly back into the face, eyes, ears, nose and mouth,
causing skin irritation and/or damage to sensitive tissue and airways. Use proper personal protective
equipment (PPE), such as safety goggles, gloves and full face shield at a minimum, when cleaning with
compressed air. Make sure other personnel in the work area are similarly and adequately protected.
1. Power wash frame at a minimum of 2300 PSI to remove dirt and debris.
NOTE: Hand-wash frame if power washer is not available. Use stiff bristle brushes, rags and sponges as
necessary to remove dirt and debris.
2. Let frame dry completely.
NOTE: Remove underbelly after drying, if applicable.
3.
Use a hand wire brush to take down any heavy rust or scaling.
4.
Use a rope wheel or knotted wheel around webbing.
5. Use a flat knot wheel around jointed areas near outriggers or anything welded to the I-beam or tubing.
NOTE: Lippert recommends 8500 rpm maximum operating speed if using an electric grinder.
NOTE: Lippert recommends 7K-12K rpm maximum operating speed if using a pneumatic grinder.
6. Use wire wheels to strip rust, scale, dirt and debris from other surfaces. Optionally, 27-grit stripper disks
may be used.
