Water/Spray Tanks UGE014/0999
5-2 MAINTENANCE
Normal operation of the WT/ST tank involves extended expo-
sure of many components to minerals and other water system
contaminants. These minerals and contaminants can produce
deposits, scales, slime or algae that will reduce tank perfor-
mance.
To maintain the best performance, you should follow this
maintenance schedule and develop an effective water treat-
ment program.
Weekly, or as often as needed.
Inspect gaskets.
Gaskets at the ends of the tank should be kept in good
condition. Replace any gaskets that are excessively
worn, cracked or torn.
Drain and clean the tank.
Remove any particles and wipe all surfaces thoroughly.
Monthly
Lubricate all threads, shafts, sliding components,
linear actuator and bearings.
Lubricate not only the grease fittings but coat shafts
and other sliding surfaces with a seize-resistant bearing
compound to prevent corrosion. You may need to
lubricate more often than monthly.
Drain and clean the reservoir.
If you have the optional recirculation system, remove
any particles and wipe all surfaces thoroughly.
Clean the spray bars.
Check for clogged holes. Rinse or use compressed air to
remove blockage.
Quarterly (every 3 months)
Lubricate water pump bearing frame, motor and
coupling.
Refer to manufacturers instructions. Recheck pump
alignment after performing any maintenance that
requires moving the unit.
Every 6 months
Inspect power cords, wires and electrical
connections.
Check for loose wires, burned contacts, and signs of
overheated wires. Check exterior power cords to the
main power source and from the electrical box to the
pumps. Check the ground wire. Replace any wire that
appears damaged or has worn or cracked insulation.
