Keeping your APOLLO FS3 Falcon Spray Turbine in excellent working order is straightforward with a few simple maintenance steps. Here's how to properly care for your spray turbine, ensuring its longevity and peak performance:
-
Filter Care: Regularly inspect and maintain your filters.
- Check and clean or replace the filters approximately every 10 hours of use, or sooner if needed.
- To access the filters, detach the dome nuts and the filter cover, then carefully remove the filter.
- Hold the filter up to a light to assess its condition. If more than half of the filter's surface area appears blocked, it's time for a cleaning or replacement.
- Gently tap the filters on a flat surface to dislodge debris. Alternatively, use compressed air, keeping the pressure below 50 PSI, to blow out any particles.
-
Yearly Servicing: Plan for annual maintenance.
- It's recommended to check the carbon brushes at least once a year, or after approximately 150 hours of operation. For guidance on inspecting the carbon brushes, consult an authorized Apollo repair facility.
-
General Safety and Care: Follow these guidelines for optimal performance.
- Always disconnect the turbine from the power supply before performing any maintenance or repairs.
- After each use, clean and inspect the filters to ensure the motor receives cool, clean air. This promotes efficient operation.
- To ensure the best performance, always use genuine Apollo filters.
- Ensure the turbine has adequate airflow; avoid covering or enclosing it.
By following these maintenance tips, you'll help ensure your APOLLO FS3 Falcon Spray Turbine continues to perform efficiently for years to come.
