Maintenance Instructions
The unit should be cleaned regularly to ensure that it is in a clean
condition. Cleaning schedule will depend on frequency of use and types of
soils. Follow daily maintenance instructions to keep the unit clean; clean
more often if necessary. Clean parts by any method suitable for the material
type and safe for the facility environment. For example: use food-safe cleaner
and food-safe material in a food processing facility. Always wear appropriate
personal protective equipment (PPE) when operating or servicing unit.
Before performing any maintenance, disconnect the unit from the compressed air
supply. After maintenance is complete, reconnect compressed air, verify
suction line and fittings are secure, and re-prime the unit according to the
Priming Instructions.
Daily Maintenance for SS2, SS2-FMH, and SS2-MBS Units:
-
Inspect the stainless foot grate (FS-GRATE) and shroud (SS2-SH) for soil and wipe clean.
-
Wipe clean the polycarbonate spray guard (SS2-SPGRD).
-
The basin (SS2-H) should be emptied and cleaned each time the chemical supply container is changed or refilled. Follow instructions on how to clean collection basin
(SS2-H). -
Verify that the nozzle assembly is free of any debris or blockage. Rinse with low pressure water if necessary.
-
Inspect all tubing for leaks or excessive wear. Make sure all hose clamps and push fittings are in good condition and properly secured.
Daily Maintenance for SS2-MBS Unit Only:
- Remove brushes (BR10 and BR10S) by lifting them out from the brush bracket. Remove debris and clean. Brushes should be replaced every 6 months depending on wear.
- Slide out debris tray (DBTR). Empty debris and wipe clean.
- Lift up on debris shield (DBSH) to remove.
- Base assembly of the unit is fully stainless and can be cleaned in place by any method suitable for stainless steel.
How To Clean Collection Basin (SS2-H):
- Empty collection basin (SS2-H)
- Lift up on the shroud (SS2-SH), rotate the top half of the unit, and slide top half of unit from the bracket (FS-GUARD) to release from the base.
- Stand top half of unit on short end. Setting unit down in other position may cause damage to nozzle assembly.
- Grab handle on front of collection basin and tip up to empty.
- Slide top half of unit back into place on collection basin.
Other Maintenance for SS2, SS2-FMH, and SS2-MBS Units:
- Inspect all parts of the unit regularly, and clean if necessary.

Troubleshooting Instructions
If footwear sanitizing unit will not spray:
- Check valve stem (SS1B2WV valve stem) and roller cam (RCA) to ensure proper movement and compression (Refer to Figure 1 below)
- If the pump is cycling, but the unit does not spray, the pump may be air locked.
- Check the suction line and strainer for debris and clean if necessary.
If footwear sanitizing unit sprays irregularly:
-
Verify that the unit is connected to an appropriate compressed air source. This unit requires 40 psi (2.8 bar) with 1 CFM (28.3 l/min) to operate. To maximize unit lifespan and performance, compressed air should be clean and dry.
Note: If air source has a high moisture content, install a water separator (WS-20CFM) before the unit. -
Verify the pump is cycling regularly. The pump can be disassembled and the o-ring can be relubricated with a silicone-based lube.
-
Check the spray tips (FCN120) and make sure they are not clogged or blocked by debris. The spray tips may be removed and cleaned if necessary.
-
Check hose clamps and ensure that barbs are secure.
-
Check all tubing connections and verify that none are loose, broken, or leaking.
