Problems with my Multisprayer

[Kevin De Medeiros]

I just got a new multiplayer a few weeks ago and this morning it stopped drawing solution from the tank. Not sure if there is a way to prime the pump cause at this point all I hear is a hum from the pump. Anyone have this happen to them?

Unhook the spray wand at the small quick connect just past the trigger. Then turn it on and pull the trigger unti it primes.

 

[Mikey P]

yes

 

[Kevin De Medeiros]

K I'll try. Thanks

 

[Kevin De Medeiros]

I left some flex in it for a few days. I'm hoping that didn't mess it up. Overall though I love it.

 

[hogjowl]

It didn't.

 

[Kevin De Medeiros]

Awesome.

 

[hogjowl]

Some protectors will react to your prespray and gum up the strainer on the suction hose.

 

[Kevin De Medeiros]

Do u ever rinse it out or ignore recommendation like I do? Also do you find that you go through a lot of prespray with the jets it comes with? The upholstery wand is fantastic compared to my hand pump sprayer.

 

[hogjowl]

Only time I clean it out is when I'm spraying protector. Otherwise, it's sits with prespray in it until the pump dies 2 or three years later.

Mine just had a meltdown.

Housing and jug melted not sure why.

 

[Mikey P]

Flames?

I just ordered 2 more today.

We have a few that are old and look it. They still work fine and we will use them here in the shop but they didn't look presentable any longer for homes and businesses.

 

[steve_64]

Flames?

No, it just melted. Not even 6 months of use.

Glad I had my hydraforce with me.

 

[Mikey P]

How does that happen?

 

[hogjowl]

He was charging the battery with jumper cables.

 

[steve_64]

I have no idea what happened or why. Looks like the wand may have accidentally touched a wire or something while it was.charging. it melted in the direction the wand was angled.

I have 2 for sale. Probably need batteries.

I melted the case of one on an exhaust pipe. Called Gene @ Multisprayer. Said send him $80 and my old case and he would send me a new one. Reckon he didn't trust I just wanted a replacement and wasn't going to build my own sprayer in a new case. Just bought a new sprayer.

Im thinking of getting a plug in.

Im thinking of getting a plug in.

That's what we get M-1s

Just bought two new ones. I've never been much for batteries. They always have power or we wouldn't be cleaning or processing a WDR loss.

 

[hogjowl]

All I use are corded ones.

Good man! Stick with me and I'll blaze you a path through the darkness. fooker!

 

[hogjowl]

I thought about you today, Reeko. I pulled mine off the van and it was white with dried on overspray. Way too busy to clean it.

 

[Desk Jockey]

That's why I buy a couple of new ones every year. They nice on the job. We go through fix the old ones, add the new thicker lances, new gun and hose and use them in shop or store them as back up.

I had 4 broke the other day. Simple stuff, a switch, a cord, a new supply hose, a new valve and they are all back up and running.

 

[steve_64]

Looks like mine is getting replaced by the manufacturer. I really didnt think they would but I guess the rep pushed for it.

Guess I dont need a new one yet. Maybe we can get a groujp buy going?
