Instructions for the CPA-2 and
CPP-2 Processors
10. Processing Instructions With
the JOBO Lift Accessory

1 Practice mounting and removing a tank or drum on
the JOBO Lift, before you start actual processing.
Note:
The retention clip may snap loudly when removing the tank
or drum. This sound is normal. When lowering the lift, the cog gear will mesh with the
transfer gear. They may make a 'thunk' noise as they engage. This sound is normal too.
2 Check that the correct chemical/wash outlet (on
the lift arm, looks like two horizontal nozzles one above the other) has been selected by
plugging the unused outlet with the bell-shaped red cap. (The upper outlet is only used
for 3000 series drums; all others use the lower outlet.)
3 Set the roller block assembly and rollers in the
proper position, for the tank or drum being used. Make sure the rollers are not under the
red locking ring (or black bands on the 3000 series) of the tank or drum.
Note:
Special black rollers with stainless steel shafts (#92167)
are available to reduce friction and wear. They are recommended for Expert Drum use, and
are suitable for use with any tank or drum.
4 To mount a tank or drum, push the lid assembly
straight into the outlet on the JOBO Lift. The retention clip will snap the lid into
place.
5 To remove the tank or drum, grasp the bottom end
of the tank or drum and pull up and toward you. The retention clip will release the lid.
Note:
Expert Drums should then be tilted vertically over the
upper trough, before leaving the processor, to drain the water from the bottom tempering
slots.
6 The final rinse of a process should have at least
the first three cycles of rinsing done with the JOBO Lift, even if you are planning to
finish the rinse off the processor. This action rinses the JOBO Lift and leaves it
prepared for the next process run. At the end of a processing session, or when switching
processes, flush the interior of the JOBO Lift by pouring about a liter (quart) of clean
water into the funnel on the top of the lift (with a large empty tank attached) and drain
the tank.
7 When raising and lowering the JOBO Lift, do not
stop the rotation motor.

8 When pouring liquids into the JOBO Lift funnel,
pour steadily so liquid does not overflow the built-in funnel. Pouring too rapidly can
cause some liquid to flow out the drain, or leak into the motor unit, causing damage. It
is normal for a few drops of chemicals to flow out the drain hose of the JOBO Lift when
pouring in chemicals. Always place the end of the hose into a drain or container when
pouring into the JOBO Lift.
