4. FILTRATION
N.B.: MAKE SURE THAT YOU USE ORIGINAL DRESTER FILTERS, NR. 8701 (MAIN FILTER), AND NR. 8702 (PRIMARY
FILTER). THESE FILTERS HAVE BEEN TESTED AND APPROVED BY THE PAINT MANUFACTURERS.
Open the drain-valve (No 9 in Picture 1) and drain the wash-basin (No 2 in Picture 1) completely into the filter. Clean the
inside of the wash-basin thoroughly with the cleaning brush (i.e. with recycled water), so that any remains of residual flocks
are completely drained into the filter. When this is done, close the drain-valve and the machine is once again ready for use.
CHANGING THE FILTER
The primary filter (No 2 in Picture 5) collects most of the coagulated sludge, while the main filter (No 1 in Picture 5) collects
the finer paint particles.
Remove the sludge from the primary filter after each coagulation process (once it is completely dry, the sludge is easy to
remove from the filter). By doing so the primary filter can be re-used up to 10 times.
The main filter will gradually become blocked after trapping the finer paint particles. In general, the main filter can be used for
up to 5 coagulation processes. The main filter must however be changed every 1-2 months, otherwise there is a risk that mould
will develop.
N.B.: THE COAGULATION SLUDGE MUST BE HANDLED IN ACCORDANCE WITH REGULATIONS FROM THE
APPROPRIATE AUTHORITY. INFORMATION FROM THE PAINT SUPPLIER MAY BE NECESSARY.
OPERATION WITHOUT A TAP-WATER CONNECTION
If you wish to use only recycled water (obtained from the filtering process) for the cleaning brush as well as the rinse-gun, the
machine should be reconnected as follows:
Remove the sticker covering the symbol for the rinse-gun (No 1 in Picture 4). Reconnect the hose to the rinse-gun (No 2 in
Picture 4). The machine will now operate with recycled water only.
Turn the lever (No 5 in Picture 3) to "Rinse-gun" position (No 1 in Picture 4). As long as the foot pedal (No 7 in Picture 1) is
depressed, recycled water will be pumped to the rinse-gun.
