SOLUTION
1. Remove Sure-Flow Metering Tip (17) from
Stainless-Steel Pick-Up Ball (13), soak in hot water, then
gently agitate insertion end with a soft bristle brush. Rinse
clean then reinsert tip into pick-up ball.
2. If issue persists, replace Sure-Flow Metering Tip (17)
with new tip. Replacement tips available for purchase
separately (Item# B3006 – Sure-Flow Metering Tips, Set
of 6) in Pink, Aqua, and Purple.
1. Press Nozzle Retainer Pin (1) out of black Nozzle
Adjuster (2) with pick or small flathead screwdriver and
set in a secure location. It may require a light tap of a small
mallet.
2. Remove Nozzle Adjuster (2) from cannon barrel and set
aside.
3. Using a 22mm box wrench or adjustable wrench carefully
remove the Fan-Jet Assembly (3) from the Secondary
Manifold (6) by firmly turning counterclockwise. This may
require additional torque. Should this present a challenge,
soak manifold assembly in hot water for 5 minutes.
Additional opposing force may be required, applying a
24mm wrench or suitable adjustable wrench on the
Secondary Manifold (6).
4. Once the Fan-Jet Assembly (3) is removed, rest on
workbench and carefully insert small flathead screwdriver
through the Fan-Jet (3a) side and press out the
Stainless-Steel Mesh Pill (4) from the barrel end. Another
option is to insert a j-hook pick on the opposing side and
remove the pill by pulling it out.
5. Inspect the mesh pill for corrosion, soap scum, or other
visible wear and clean or replace as necessary. Should
foaming performance be diminished, the mesh pill will most
certainly require replacement. Insert cleaned pill, or new
Stainless-Steel Mesh Pill (4) from rebuild kit and firmly
seat it into position by applying pressure with small flathead
screwdriver.
6. Reinstall in reverse order.
