To operate the flow return system, proceed as follows:
1. Ensure the paint/water changeover valve is in the ‘paint’ position
(lever pointing forward) (Fig 11)
2. Turn the flow return tap through 90 degrees (in line with hose. See
Fig 12)
3. Switch the machine on by switching the ON/OFF switch, paint will
now circulate around the system and back into the tank.

Setting the line width
The line width is determined by the width between the guide discs and
the nozzle height. Both must be adjusted correctly to obtain a good line
with the optimum paint usage. A ruler is located in the nozzle post for
measuring the line width and the nozzle height.
1. With the line forming discs resting on the ground, compress the
spring collars and slide the line forming discs in or out to achieve the
desired line width.
IMPORTANT: Both the line forming discs must be adjusted so that
the nozzle is central between them.
Setting the nozzle height
1. Hinge the nozzle post to the vertical position. Adjust the nozzle
height by squeezing the spring collar and sliding the nozzle post up
or down for the desired line width. A ruler is provided in the nozzle
post.
2. A reference guide is located underneath the bonnet and give approx-
imate nozzle height for a range of line widths. NOTE: this is only in-
tended as a guide. The operator must observe the spray pattern and
adjust the nozzle height to form a good line for the local conditions

3. On an area of the ground away from the pitch, briefly switch on the
pump. Observe the spray pattern, check that the spray fan just
reaches the line forming discs at the top of the grass height. For hard
surfaces the spray fan should just reach the line forming disc at the
ground surface. If necessary adjust the nozzle height. Turn off the
pump
4. Close the bonnet. Ensure the blue coiled hose is arranged with no
kinks and is not fouling on the guide discs. The Kombi Ranger line
marker is now ready for line marking.
