MAINTENANCE (Part V)

GENERAL MAINTENANCE REGULATIONS

All maintenance and repair work must be done in full compliance with safety regulations.

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

A) The Turbine "Speedy Rain" does not require any special maintenance. Turbine and gear unit are life
lubricated. Check the turbine from time to time and remove any scale (to do this, remove the 6 screws
fixing the cover).
B) From time to time lubricate the turbine mounts and the hose guide wormscrew mounts. To grease the reel
drive chain, remove the chain casing. Check to make sure the chain is always well tensioned. Tension the
chain with the chain stretcher on the reel wormscrew mount.
C) Before putting the machine away for the winter, empty the hose and unwind it completely. It is essential to
remove all residual water from the turbine. To do this, detach the hose from the fitting at turbine outlet. Tip
the machine up lifting the side where the water enters the reel. Do this until all the water in the turbine
casing has drained out. Open the drain valve on the turbine.
D) Spray a small amount of very fluid oil inside the turbine and on the outside of the aluminium casing.
E) Once a year dismantle the water in-feed mount on the reel and grease it thoroughly.

RM DECLINES ANY AND ALL LIABILITY FOR DAMAGE CAUSED BY INCORRECT
