has stopped working, it will prime no problem but will not work. also possibly related, my psi takes about 2 to 5 seconds to register on the meter after i have switched the truckmount on. any ideas anyone?

[Tony Gill Carpet Smart]

Had this problem when I first installed my Truckmount traced it back to a diaphram in the last step injection pump

Cheers Tony

De-scale or clean filters ?

Derek, I have known the plungers to stick in.


You know the numpty that adjusts the metering? wind it anti clockwise till it completely comes off, pull the spring and plunger out, lube it all up with silicone lube and put back together, it's worth a try.

K n o b turns into numpty!!??

k n o b is a legitimate word.

Agree with tony, same happened to mine

[Andrew Briscoe]

Had same problem myself last couple of days,
in my brass diaphragm it has about a 2" seal, is this what prob generally is.
Mine will draw solution when i purge it, but mot in the on position ?

[Tony Gill Carpet Smart]

You got it sorted Derek ??

[derek west]

no not yet Tony, will get a diaphram ordered tomorrow cos i'm off thursday so far, will fit that and see. now got oil coming out of my psi gauge 

[Simon Gerrard]

Derek,
Check your water pump oil hasn't got oil in it.

Think Simon means water in it

Think Simon means water in it 

Pressure water pumps have oil filled gear boxes.

[Tony Gill Carpet Smart]

  Yes I know that

[Simon Gerrard]

I did mean water in it....doh!

pressure gauges are filled with oil to stop the needle bouncing around so it might be that whats leaking out.
