DAILY SYSTEM SHUTDOWN FOR ALL REFILLABLE SYSTEMS
•
LEAVE CHEMICAL IN HOSE! DO NOT SPRAY AFTER SHUTTING OFF CHEMICAL SUPPLY.
•
Engage the Handi-Gun
trigger is released.
•
Clean face of Handi-Gun or Handi-Gun II; apply petroleum jelly to gun face. A used nozzle must be placed
onto the Handi-Gun and Handi-Gun II in order to keep the outlet ports clean and free from any dust, dirt or
chemical that can affect the proper sealing of the nozzle.
•
Close all the On/Off valves from the gun hose assembly to the cylinders:
• Magnum Heated Hose: close valves #8, #7, #6, #5 and #4
• 100' Gun Hose Assembly (non–heated): close valves #5 and #4.
•
Turn off the main valve (clockwise) on the nitrogen bottle.
•
Turn both regulator knobs counter-clockwise until they spin freely. Do not overturn the knobs or they may
come loose from the regulator.
•
Unplug Magnum hose from power supply (If applicable).
•
If the nitrogen cylinder is to be transported then the nitrogen regulator (#1) MUST be removed from the
nitrogen cylinder and the cap for the nitrogen bottle replaced.
NOTE: Polyurethane hoses and guns are not intended to be stored for long periods of time while charged
with chemical; therefore fresh chemical must be dispensed through the hoses every 7-10 days to prevent
loss of performance.
CYLINDER STORAGE AND REUSE
• Proper chemical temperature is CRITICAL to the performance of any low pressure polyurethane foam system.
• A temperature controlled hot box or heat blanket is recommended for applications in order to store the refill
system at a consistent, controlled temperature prior to and during use. An acceptable storage hot box is
nothing more than a small room that is large enough to hold the system(s) being used or conditioned and
is sufficiently insulated and heated to maintain a consistent temperature of 80°F (27°C).
• Condition cylinders at ambient conditions to bring chemical that is too warm or too cold to optimal chemical
temperature for several days (see figure 1 on page 3).
• NEVER store cylinders above 90°F (32°C) or below 60°F (16°C).
• Anytime you reuse, before attaching pressure test gauge: Hook up nitrogen lines and add a small amount of
nitrogen to cylinders. This will avoid any accidental spill of chemical caught in the nitrogen inlet.
RETURNING CYLINDERS
• Return Bill of Lading is located in the Shipping Packet (#11,
#8) inside A-side cylinder collar for Systems 17 & up or on
the side of the A-side cylinder on System 8's.
• For Systems 17 and 27, keep cardboard sleeves on the
cylinders for cylinder return and DO NOT palletize cylinders.
• For System 8, keep cardboard shipper boxes on the
cylinders for cylinder return and return with pallet
• Keep cylinders upright at all times.
• In preparing the bill of lading, please complete the following information: date, shipper's
name and address, number of cylinders, total weight (below), shipper's signature and
cylinder serial numbers.
• Replace the PLUG and CAP on the proper cylinder outlet (#5). NOTE: You can find an
additional cap and plug located in the Shipping Packet (#11, #8).
• Using the Pressure Test Gauge (see image on the right), open the valve to reduce
the pressure in the cylinder to 75 to 100 psi.
