Could someone please advise me on the procedure on how to remove the airlock from the blanket wash device tank.
It run low now it says it has no pressure etc.
I think it is airlocked.
The machine is fairly new to me.
Help appreciated

Hi sir:

Follow this procedure:

1. Demount the wash cartridge.
2. Loosen the Allen screws on the
D.S. and O.S..
3. Move the spray tubes towards the
D.S.. This loosens the hoses for the water and
washing fluid .
4. Carefully remove the spray tubes from the
press.
Warning – Risk of injury when cleaning
the spray tubes
Wear protective glasses and protective
gloves for the following work!
5. Clean the spray tubes (look his operating
manual).
see and tight clamps, and any loose parts.

I’ve not seen an “air lock” situation, I’d be inclined to say you have a faulty pressure switch.

What do you mean by airlocked??

 

[Alistair Tinsley]

Airlock means air in the system.
Have this problem sorted now.
It was a faulty sensor
