Maintenance


Always switch the product off and remove the battery before performing inspection, maintenance, and cleaning work.


When servicing, use only identical replacement parts. Use of any other parts could create a hazard or cause product damage.

General Cleaning Tips


Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based products, penetrating oils, etc., come in contact with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken or destroy plastic, which could result in serious personal injury.

Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.

With the battery removed, clean and thoroughly dry out all parts of the misting fan, intake hose, and bucket when not in use to prevent the possible formation of bacteria or mold. Spraying mist that contains bacteria or mold can result in serious personal injury or illness.

Nozzle Maintenance


Ensure all nozzle maintenance is properly performed to prevent leaks. Leaks can result in a slippery surface, create a slip and fall hazard, or cause property damage.
Irregular mist patterns or leakage may be the result of a clogged or dirty nozzle.

TO CLEAN NOZZLES

  1. Turn off the unit and remove the battery.
  2. Remove the brass nozzles from both side of the fan by unscrewing them counter-clockwise (Fig. 12).
    TO CLEAN NOZZLES
  3. Soak nozzles in nozzle cleaner (not included) to loosen foreign materials clogging or restricting the nozzles. Using a garden hose, flush debris out of nozzle by back flushing.
  4. Replace the nozzles, twist clockwise to secure.

Filter Maintenance

The intake hose is equipped with a water filter to protect the pump. If the filter is not kept clean, the water flow to the appliance will be restricted and the pump may be damaged.
Periodically check the filter at the end of the intake hose for debris and make sure it is in good condition.

  1. Pull back the quick-connector collar, and pull out the filter cage from the end of the intake hose (Fig. 10)
  2. Remove the quick-connector end from the filter cage by unscrewing it counter-clockwise, then remove the filter inside the cage (Fig. 13).

  3. Rinse the filter with clean water, or replace with a new filter. Insert it back into the filter cage. Reconnect the quick-connector end and twist to tighten securely.
