CLEAN UP
When you are finished striping, remove the mandrel with the roller cover, mandrel tube, and
hose from the RollMaster™ 5000. This is done by opening the trough as described earlier.
Remove the end of the hose attached to the paint pail tube, making sure the end of the hose is
kept upright so not to drip any paint. Remove the hose from side of eyebolt and lift hose,
mandrel tube and mandrel together off machine. This prevents any paint coming in contact
with the pumping mechanism, which assures the owner of the RollMaster™ 5000 a clean, long
lasting piece of equipment. Helpful Hint: Use a 2lb. coffee 'can' or similar container to place the
hose & mandrel assembly in for transporting to a sink for cleanup.
The mandrel, tube assemblies, and the roller then can be washed out in a solvent, paint thinner
or soapy water for future use. If you desire, the hose and roller cover may be tossed away and
a fresh, inexpensive, replacement kit can be purchased from your dealer or Newstripe.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
1. Make sure the trough is closed.
2. Check the paint hose for a kink. If the hose is kinked, open the trough and
rotate the hose to unkink it. Replace the hose if necessary.
3. Check that the pump drive wheel is contacting rear wheel when the
control lever is pulled. If it is not, adjust the cable at the frame.
4. Check that all pump rollers spin freely. If not clean the rollers of debris or
paint, and lubricate them with a light oil.
5. Check to see if your paint is "Set Fast" or "Fast Dry". These paints are not
recommended and require thinning, which may cause the paint to dry
slower, or may diminish the overall line quality.
1. Check that the mandrel moves up and down freely in the J-Yoke and is
not binding. Adjust the J-Yokes if needed. Clean any debris or paint off of
the J-Yokes.
2. If the mandrel is riding up on the mandrel carrier sides, grease the
mandrel tube end and O-Ring with a light oil.
1. Make sure that you are using the proper regulating discs.
2. Periodically release the control lever every few feet during striping to
avoid oversaturating the roller cover.
1. Make sure that the mandrel and roller cover are rolling freely. If not,
lubricate the O-Ring end of mandrel tube and the mandrel tube O-Ring.
Your machine is designed to be simple and safe to operate.
