Controlling Horizontal and Vertical movement: The monitor movement is controlled using
the hand grip (Item 21) located on the end of the control arm assembly. Firmly grasp the hand
grip with one hand and release the vertical and horizontal locks with the other. Only release the
locks enough to allow movement in all directions. Pushing down on the hand grip will raise the
discharge of the monitor and lifting will lower the discharge. Pushing the hand grip to the left
will move the discharge of the monitor to the right and pushing the hand grip to the right will
move the discharge of the monitor to the left. Do not release the monitor controls without
engaging both the horizontal and vertical locks first.
Familiarize all personnel that will be using this equipment with the operation of all the monitor’s
locks and controls before flowing water. The water supply to the monitor should be increased
slowly to prevent whipping of the monitor due to nozzle reaction.
Maintenance:
The monitor should be moved through its entire range of motion and inspected for proper
function of all locks and controls monthly. The monitor should be greased through the two
fittings located on the monitor assembly (Item 16) every six months. General purpose petroleum
grease should be used. Maintain paint as dictated by the environment.
