Maintenance
Routine Procedures
Daily
• Start every washday with a “Test Wash” to insure proper operation of all equipment.
• Inspect the component for clogged nozzles. This can best be done while running the “Test Wash” in
the morning. Nozzles can be cleaned by removing the nozzle bodies and tapping or inserting a thin
wire into the nozzle opening.
• Check operation to insure uniform foam is being applied where applicable. This is best be checked
while running the “Test Wash” in the morning.
• Check the chemical injection pump(s) to insure that the pump is properly primed if applicable. This
is done by checking the chemical inside of the clear supply tubing. There should be no bubbles or
breaks in the fluid (if applicable).
• Check overall performance for any abnormalities on the first few vehicles washed each day.
• Hose down the component and surrounding area at the end of each washday. This will remove the
majority of the dirt and other debris that builds up during a washday.
• Check for water and chemical leaks after equipment is turned off.
Weekly
• Check all mixing tanks periodically for sludge build-up on bottom. If too much sediment is evident,
drain tank and clean (if applicable).
Monthly
• Wash component down with a good degrimer such as Tide laundry detergent and hot water.
Quarterly
• Scrub down aluminum portions of the component with a fine steel wool such as S.O.S. pads and
wash with good degrimer such as Tide laundry detergent and hot water (whenever using steel wool
on aluminum, always follow the grain to prevent scratching the finish).
Semi-Annually
• There is a grease fitting located on the gearbox opposite of where the electric motor mounts. This
fitting is there so the shaft bearing can be greased, because there is not enough splash from the ring
gear to lubricate the bearing.
• It is recommended that one squirt of a general-purpose grease be applied every six months.
