• Operating above maximum rated pressure and flow.
• Not draining, and allowing water to freeze inside the nozzle.

• Prolonged exposure to temperatures above +130 degrees F, or below -25 degrees F,
• Operating in a corrosive environment.
• Other misuse that might be unique to your specific fire fighting environment.
There are many "tell tale" signs that indicate nozzle repair is in order, such as:
• Controls that are either inoperable or difficult to operate.
• Excessive wear.
• Poor discharge performance.
• Water leaks.
If any of the above situations are encountered, the nozzle should be taken out of service and repaired, plus tested by
qualified nozzle technicians, prior to placing it back in service.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
• To change the spray angle, push the toggle switch to either SS (straight stream) or fog.
• To change the flow on an adjustable flow version, you must shut off the flow, adjust the spray pattern past fog until it stops, then
manually push the baffle head in and rotate it until the roll pin aligns with the desired flow setting . For fixed flow versions, the
baffle head must be removed and the flow spacer changed for the desired flow . The flow options and spacer information can
be found on the parts list .
• To flush the nozzle push the toggle switch towards the fog position until it stops. This gives you the maximum orifice for clearing
small debris . (30-125 gpm nozzle only)
MAINTENANCE
• Under normal conditions, periodically flushing the nozzle with clean water and cleaning grit and dirt from around exterior moving
parts will allow the nozzle to operate as designed .
• Over time the seals and turbine teeth may need to be replaced. This can be accomplished by purchasing the appropriate Akron
repair parts. Use Qualified maintenance mechanics or return the nozzle to Akron Brass for repair.
