Install the Nozzle

Do not install the nozzle before performing the initial system flush.

1.

Open and secure the lid.

Use care when opening or closing the lid to avoid injury. Never let the lid free-fall. Keep hand, fingers, or body parts away from the side of the table when closing the lid.

Figure 241  

2.

Place a piece of cardboard or other material on top of the slats to keep small parts from falling into the tank.

3.

Raise the Z-axis plate.

Hold the inlet body when loosening the hand knob. Do not let the inlet body fall and strike the cutting deck slats. Damage to the inlet body may occur, which may cause leaks.

4.

Install the nozzle filter [1] into the inlet body.

Figure 242  

5.

Carefully remove the protective cap from the nozzle assembly.

Always orient the orifice assembly so the brass [1] is visible from the top of the nozzle body. Inserting the orifice assembly in nozzle body in the incorrect orientation [2] may cause damage to the orifice assembly.

Figure 243  

6.

Insert the orifice assembly [1] into the nozzle body and adjust the orifice to ensure the it is seated correctly in the chamber bore [2].

Figure 244  

Do not use a brush or cotton swab or foam-tipped applicator to apply lubricants because they may leave fibers and clog the nozzle.

7.

Apply a light coat of Blue Goop to the second and third threads [1] of the inlet body, then spread the lubricant evenly around the inlet body threads.

Use care when applying lubricants around high-pressure water routes. Lubricants can enter the high-pressure water system and clog the orifice and/or mixing tube.

Wipe the excess Blue Goop from the end of the inlet body [1].

9.

Apply a light coat of blue goop to the first and second nozzle body threads [1], then spread the lubricant evenly around the nozzle body threads.

Attach the nozzle [3] to the inlet body [1].

Figure 249  

Remove the thumb screw [1] and mixing tube [2] from the nozzle body if necessary to fit the torque wrench prior to tightening. Hold onto the mixing tube [2] so that it does not drop out of the nozzle body when the thumb screw [1] is removed.

Figure 250  

12.

Verify the mixing tube is properly seated into the nozzle body and the thumb screw is tightened.

Figure 251  

13.

Place the nozzle splash guard onto the mixing tube, then fold the splash guard cup.
