1. Spitfire 15 amp 22 kpsi Shotgun Swivel SPFR MP9 B MP9 S P8 B P8 S Z KERRICK Description The Spitfire is a self rotating swivel designed for handheld shotgun waterblast cleaning There are two inlet connection options available The P8 tool has a 1 2 female NPT inlet port and the MP9 tool has a 9 16 medium pressure cone and thread inlet port The P8 tool can be used at operating pressures up to 15 000 psi 1035 bar and the M9 tool at up to 22 000 psi 1500 bar The tools do not use any bearings seals or lubricating fluid Rotation is internally self driven and is not dependent on orifice size The nozzle inserts installed in the head determine the flow rate Operation The Spitfire should always be used with a gun that includes a dump or pressure shut off mechanism so that pressure can be rapidly released The gun barrel length including the Spitfire should be long enough that the gun operator cannot pass the jets over his feet or legs It is recommended that the thrust produced by the jets be no more than 1 3 the weight of the operator Install the desired nozzle size into the head we recommend using Parker Thread Mate and teflon tape on the nozzle threads Attach the Spitfire to the shotgun barrel Flush the high pressure hose before connecting to the gun inlet Check that the dump mechanism functions correctly before going to operating pressure To set the operating pressure the gun operator should close the dump o2. n the gun and the pump operator should slowly increase the pressure to allow the gun operator to compensate for the jet thrust The Spitfire head should be within 2 to 8 inches of the surface depending on how difficult it is to remove the material After using the Spitfire blow out any remaining water with compressed air and spray a light oil such as WD 40 into the tool to coat the internal surfaces Failure to follow this procedure may cause tool not to function properly with subsequent use Troubleshooting Head will not rotate Spray a light oil such as WD 40 into the tool and rotate head by hand until it turns freely again Make sure that the jets in the head are not plugged If the tool still does not rotate after trying this several times it may need to be disassembled and cleaned on the inside To do this requires a 7 16 hex socket wrench inserted onto the rear of the shaft to remove the head from the shaft Begin by removing the Inlet Nut SPF 002 P8 or SPF 202 MP9 from the Body SPF 003 For the S version remove the Shield SPFR 005 from the Body For the B version remove the Bumper SPFR 052 from the Head Using a hex socket unscrew the Shaft SPFR 001 from the Head SPFR 051 Make sure the two small holes in the side of the shaft are cleaned out debris plugging these holes is the most likely cause of the tool not rotating Inspect the stem of the Inlet Nut for galling this can be polished slightly ASSEMBLY NOTE Use an
