I just installed six new pumps and new belts on each. So far after two weeks I noticed that there is a large amount of black dust coming from the belts. The sides next to the pumps are almost covered in black dust. Is that normal for new belts? If not, what is the likely cause? I am using...

I only used Asco because I heard so many great things about them from here. Lasted 2 years before I had to replace the diaphragm. At my other wash I had been using Dema for years with very little trouble. I keep the extra Dema diaphragms and repair kits on hand and rarely need them. I only...

I just bought SO302273 from KR to repair my 8210. Are you saying that is not the correct repair kit? It was $87. I haven't received it yet, but if it's wrong, I'm going to make them pay to ship it back.

You will be amazed how good a cheap valve can work. I lost my mind trying to figure out what was wrong with the 573. Every time I tried something, I would just wait by the phone until I got another call saying there was no water coming out.

I had the same exact issue. Used 573 model for years, but then I kept having issues with the tank not filling. After trying 3 different 573 units, finally figured out that they cannot handle hot water. Switched to the $30 Hudson valve from KR and haven't had an issue since. Bought a spare...

Not a bad idea, I'll try it.

Based on my setup, I've thought about it and that has to be it. I'm sure that when FB is activated in the problem bay, it's running past the weep cv and into the weep manifold for all the FB and TF weep valves, then coming out of each one. I will check that out and confirm. Thanks!

I checked the voltages on the solenoids and they were zero if not activated. Also took off the airlines from the back and nothing was coming out unless that bay was activated. There is white foam coming out of both the brushes and TF guns, so it is not just air that is passing through. Same...

I will try the ultra lean as that is the easiest, but with the ability to simultaneously draw water from the holding tank to dilute it as it draws, I would rather do that as I I wouldn't have to pre-dilute or store large drums. I have a very small ER, so any room I can save the better.

I currently have the turtle wax dilution blocks for a lot of my chemicals, but want to replace them with something else as they break easily and I am out of replacement parts for them. They use standard large hydrominder tips, but each block has 2 tips. One for the chemical and one that draws...

I've been using the Paraplates for years and they last a long time. When they start to lose pressure or leak, a rebuild kit is $5 and takes a few minutes to install.

I'm sure that's it, the doors it came with did have a wash down switch/lock. cfcw, Regarding the ball valves, I have them about half way closed. Is that enough? I'm using hard water for now, so I'm sure that needs a bigger tip as well.

Bypassing the relay and just connecting the rinse wire seems to have fixed the issue. Solenoid only comes on for rinse. I am curious as to what the relay was used for. Now I just need to dial in the chemicals, seems like I need to use much larger tips than I used to before with this system.

Here are the relays and the wiring. I know that the purple is the rinse solenoid wire and the orange is the motor starter wire, but no idea what the other wires are or what function the relay had in the past. If I pull the relay off, the rinse solonoid won't kick on for any function, but I am...

It wasn't a complete system with the push button doors. It actually came with Jim Coleman doors that had a 10 function rotary switch. No idea what they could have combined as the switch stack could have done that, right?

I did not as I didn't touch the wiring in the control box other than to hook up the Ginsan decoder. I just had to attach the function wires to the corresponding functions, then connect the motor starter to the motor starter wire. There are a row of relays on the top next to the omron plc that...

Hmm. That's not a bad idea to get going. I have my hot water off anyway as I have been waiting to get everything running first. I guess I could just turn the water off to the solenoids since is it a separate supply and only feeds those and the weep. Would that work the same as unhooking the...

I finally installed my JC super saver and I have some functions working, but have an issue with HP soap, wax and presoak. The issue I am having is that when I select wax, soap or presoak, the rinse solenoid is also turning on. Because of that, water is not being drawn from the hot water...

I just installed my JC super saver and am almost ready to test it. Just need to finish wiring in the coin boxes and some of the tubing. I did turn it on last night and on the Omron PLC, under OUT-10ch the light on top of 07 was flashing and making a clicking noise. Anyone know what that means...
