10.0 MAINTENANCE

TFT products are designed and manufactured to be damage resistant and require minimal maintenance. However, as the primary
firefighting tool upon which your life depends, it should be treated accordingly. The unit should be kept clean and free of dirt by rinsing
with water after each use. Any inoperable or damaged parts should be repaired or replaced before placing the unit in service. To help
prevent mechanical damage, do not drop or throw equipment.
In applications where appliances are left continuously connected to the apparatus or other devices or are used where water is trapped
inside the appliance, the appliance must be flushed with fresh water following each use and inspected for damage.
This appliance should be disconnected, cleaned and visually inspected inside and out at least quarterly, or as water quality and use may
require. Moving parts such as handles, valve ball and couplings should be checked for smooth and free operation. Seals shall be
greased as needed with Silicone based grease such as Molykote 112. Any scrapes that expose bare aluminum should be cleaned and
touched up with enamel paint such as Rust-Oleum. Replace any missing or damaged parts before returning to service.
Any equipment taken out of service due to failure should be returned to the factory for repair or replacement. If you have any questions
regarding the testing or maintenance of your valve, please call Task Force Tips at 800-348-2686.
