of which model you have. Assembly for the front wheel(s) is described on the
following pages for the 3-wheel and 4-wheel models.

USING THE VARIABLE FLOW CONTROL
The Streamliner’s Variable Flow On/Off Control gives
youtotalcommandoftheowofyourdrylinematerial.
Somedrylinematerialwillowrapidlywhileothersow
more slowly and can “bridge” within the hopper.
With this in mind, the Variable Flow Control was designed
for the operator to adjust the opening according
toeachmaterial’sowrate.
The off position is in the center. Move the
spring-loaded lever upwards to mark a 2" line
and downwards for a 4" line. The further
away from the off position you get,
the wider the opening gets for chalking
materialtoowthrough.
Three preset notches on both the 2"
and 4" end of the control allows the
operatortolockinthechalkow
andadjustonthey,asnecessary.

If your Streamliner will sit idle for a month or longer, the hopper should be
emptied completely. To empty the hopper, simply open the hopper cover and tip
the unit over a large bucket. Spin the wheels to help remove any material that is
clingingtotheexiblebrushagitator.
A more thorough cleaning is needed at the end of the season
or if the Streamliner will be idle for several months. Empty the
hopperrst,thenreturntheStreamlinerit’snormalposition.
Move the Variable Flow Control lever to the widest 4"
line notch.
Use a hose to thoroughly spray the entire unit with water
— including the hopper — inside and out. Be sure to
rotate the brush agitator as you spray the interior of the
hopper by rolling the Streamliner forward.
Be sure to allow the Streamliner to dry thoroughly
before using it again.
3-WHEEL STREAMLINER 353
Hopper holds between 35 - 40 pounds of dry line marking material.
4-WHEEL STREAMLINER 70
Hopper holds between 70 - 75 pounds of dry line marking material.

The optional Double Play connects to the vertical shaft of the Streamliner handle.
If your Streamliner came with the Double Play already attached, skip to Step 5 for
set-up instructions.
➊Remove the right handle grip
on the Streamliner and insert the trigger
onto the handle shaft. The longest side
of the triangle shaped trigger should face
toward the front of the Streamliner
chalker unit and the small slotted hole
should be on the bottom. Then, reinstall
the handle grip.
➋To attach Double Play start by
unscrewing the tension bolt (red knob)
untiltheendoftheboltisushwiththe
inside of the unit.
➌Wrap the Double Play around the
vertical handle shaft of the Streamliner so
it nestles into the u-joint. The Double Play
can be located anywhere on the lower end
of the vertical handle shaft.
An adjustment for proper height will
be made in Step 6. Retighten the tension
bolt to hold it to the vertical handle shaft.
