Illustrations (figures) represent equipment components for use in identifying parts or establishing nomenclature. These figures may or may not be drawn to scale. 1.4 Safety requirements The 1-Xs is installed and operated in a controlled environment involving hazardous situations. Proper maintenance is essential for safe and reliable operation. Procedures outlined in Peinemann Equipment manuals are the recommended methods for performing operations and maintenance.
Replacement parts not manufactured by Peinemann Equipment were utilized. 1.11 Hose sizes and pressures The 1-Xs is suitable for use with various hose sizes and pressures. However, the maximum throughput of the 1-Xs is Ø27 milimeter (1.06 in). The most common hose sizes (3/2 - 6/2), hose catchers, nozzles and end stops are available from stock. Different lengths and shapes for the front lances are also available.
1. GENERAL INFORMATION 1.12 SIR Regulations The 1-Xs is a semi-automatic high-pressure flex lance transit machine, and current SIR regulations regarding high-pressure cleaning apply (or the applicable rules in the country where you are currently working). It is recommended to comply with SIR regulations. The general safety regulations apply, just as for other high-pressure cleaning activities.
• High-pressure cleaning can damage pipes if the nozzles are not moved under pressure. Therefore, always ensure that there is a cleaning protocol stating maximum water pressure. PEINEMANN EQUIPMENT - USER MANUAL1-XS...
There is a risk of the hose coming through the hose catcher or getting stuck in the hose catcher when the stop sleeve and/or crimp fitting diameter is not significantly larger than the hose catcher diameter. The stop sleeve and/or crimp fitting is highly recommended to have at least a 3 millimeter (0.12 in) larger diameter than the hose catcher (=+1.5 mm around). If this is not the case, we recommend using a different configuration. PEINEMANN EQUIPMENT - USER MANUAL 1-XS...

5.3 Adjusting the oil lubricator The oil lubricator can be adjusted using a screwdriver. Unscrewing the screw will cause drops to be released more frequently. Unscrew the regulating screw to such an extent that 1 drop per 5 seconds is released. 5.4 Mounting the motor Mount the motor onto the machine. First, ensure the machine’s axle is aligned with the small fork of the air motor. Then push the motor over the axle, turn it counterclockwise and block it using the blocking clip.

Blow through the input air hose and connect it to the air supply unit and oil lubricator. Connect the output hose to the oil lubricator and motor. 5.6 Setting the air pressure Set the air pressure between a minimum of 3 bar and a maximum of 6.3 bar. 5.7 Greasing the chain Grease the chain by injecting the supplied special chain grease.

Pull the high-pressure hose to check whether the hose catcher is functioning. ! If the hose catcher is not attached correctly, the flex lance may pop out of the machine under high pressure. PEINEMANN EQUIPMENT - USER MANUAL 1-XS...

Close the bridge, tighten the friction control and close the protective hood. If there is too much slip on the flex lances during operations, then adjust the friction control. ! Too much friction can damage the flex lances or the 1-Xs. ! The chain is automatically kept at the correct tension. Always check the chain for wear and damage before usage.
6.1.3 Setting the friction for horizontal use Follow the instructions in Ch.6.1.2 to set the initial friction tension. Then hold the 1-Xs horizontally against the tube plate and perform a quick test against the tube plate. You can instantly find out whether the force is not too strong. The force is too strong when the operator is pushed away from the bundle.
The reverse movement can be stopped if the reducer sleeve on the flex lance touches the hose catcher in the machine and the 1-Xs starts to slip. When working with the 1-Xs, it is advised to use a stinger. ! When cleaning a “U bundle” using a small hose with no stinger, this must be adjusted so that it cannot leave the pipe.
It is possible to operate the 1-Xs by carrying it over your shoulders using a carrying strap. ! It is advised to use the 1-Xs with a balancer and anti-withdrawal device. This will take the weight of the machine out of your hands.
6. OPERATIONS 6.2 Usage in combination with the Orion Indexer 6.2.1 Required equipment Check whether the required equipment for combining the 1-Xs and Orion Indexer is present. • Adjustable tube guide • Automatic motor • Adapter Level Drain Adjustable tube guide Automatic motor Adapter PEINEMANN EQUIPMENT - USER MANUAL1-XS...
6.2.3 Installing the automatic motor and adjustable tube guide Remove the manual motor (if necessary) and mount the automatic motor. Make sure to lock the blocking clip. Then, mount the adjustable tube guide to the 1-Xs. 6.2.4 Setting up the 1-Xs and Orion Indexer...
This allows the oil to spread throughout the rotor, which prevents the blades from sticking. • Check the condition of the friction blocks. Replace if needed. Oil lubricator adjuster Water seperator drainage PEINEMANN EQUIPMENT - USER MANUAL 1-XS...
Apply grease if needed. 7.2 Major maintenance Check the 1-Xs by a qualified engineer every 500 service hours. If there is no record of service hours, then check the machine after one year. Contact Peinemann Equipment or one of our dealers for major maintenance and/or replacement of parts. PEINEMANN EQUIPMENT - USER MANUAL1-XS...
Both parties must agree on the chosen working method. This agreement must be demonstrable by means of a document signed by both parties. The following working methods for a flex lance are still permitted but are strongly discouraged because of the considerable risk. PEINEMANN EQUIPMENT - USER MANUAL 1-XS...

Level 5 If working with a flex lance and lead pipe is not possible, then it is possible to work manually with a flex lance, which must be fitted with a marking ring. Note that the nozzle should be longer than the diameter of the pipe or tube in order to prevent any boomerang effect. Manual cleaning with a lance also comes under level 5. The spray operator must wear comprehensive personal protective equipment designed to withstand the risks of this working method. Level 6 Stop! Manual cleaning using a flex lance without a marking ring is prohibited. PEINEMANN EQUIPMENT - USER MANUAL1-XS...
Peinemann will re-deliver spare parts at no cost by sending the spare parts to the Other Party. Peinemann will in principle not assemble the spare parts, unless parties explicitly agree otherwise in which case Peinemann will be compensated for all costs related to the assembly, travel costs included.
