DO NOT OPERATE THE ECOGUM PRX1 WITHOUT READING AND UNDERSTANDING THE
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS. IF THE ECOGUM PRX1 IS OPERATED INCORRECTLY IT CAN
POSE DANGER TO THE OPERATOR AND OTHERS AND WILL INVALIDATE THE
MANUFACTURERS WARRANTY. BEFORE USE, READ AND UNDERSTAND THE FOLLOWING:
1. A risk assessment for the works to be undertaken.
2. ECOGUM MSDS Chemical Data Sheet.
3. Risk Assessment for ECOGUM Chemical use.
4. ECOGUM LPG data sheet.
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
Before inserting the LPG Gas and gum removal chemical correctly fit the rucksack to the
operator by adjusting the straps to fit. The rucksack has been designed to be kept upright at all
times when the LPG and gum removal chemical are inserted. This is important to the operation
of the Ecogum PXR1 Workman.
Cautions when using the ECOGUM PRX1:
Keep the unit upright at all times when operating or when chemical or gas is inserted.
The rechargeable battery has been designed to be fully charged BEFORE each use.
Only use the ECOGUM approved solution and ECOGUM LPG for the safe use of the
ECOGUM PRX1. Using other consumable items in the ECOGUM PRX1 invalidates the
warranty and will lead to damage of the internal parts of the ECOGUM PRX1.
Make sure the operator has read and understood these instructions before attempting
to use the ECOGUM PRX1 and is fully trained in its operation.
ECOGUM LPG gas consumption will vary slightly according to atmospheric pressures. The
service pack contains 2 x ECOGUM LPG gas bottles, which will last approximately 8 hours.
ECOGUM chemical (2 Litre) will last for approximately 2 hours of continual use. 4 x ECOGUM
chemical bottles will last for approximately 8 continual hour’s operation.
Brass brushes will wear according to the surface being cleaned. Each brass brush will last for
approximately 1 to 1.5 hours. 6 x brass brushes will last for 8 hours continual operation of the
ecogum PRX1.
Choose a brass brush for solid urban surfaces such as concrete, natural stone, tarmacadam,
asphalt and other common urban surfaces. Choose a nylon brush for surfaces such as wooden
flooring, entrance matting and heavy-duty carpet.
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
Always complete a test patch on the above surfaces to make sure no damage occurs to the
flooring or surface.
Operators Instructions ECOGUM PRX1:
Consumable Items:

Remove the cap from the ECOGUM chemical bottle.
Insert the ECOGUM solution bottle into the square hole in the unit.
Screw the black cap onto the bottle (which is attached to the unit by a tube) and make sure
the tube is pushed as far down as it will go into the bottle.
Screw the 2 ECOGUM LPG gas bottles onto the gas valve manifold ensuring that it is tightly
connected and place these into the unit.
Turn the 2 gas valves on.
Replace the lid securely by the 2 clips either side to ensure pipes/cables are not snagged.
Screw a brass or nylon gum removal brush onto the end of the nozzle of the Lance.
Ensure that the battery has been fully charged before each use.
Place the brush on the piece of flattened gum and wait 5-10 seconds.
Agitate the flattened gum with the brush until you see it disintegrate by using circular
motions – do not scrub or apply pressure. The weight of the lance with agitation is all that
is required.
Remove the Ecogum PXR1 lance from the gum and use a broom to sweep across the area
to ensure the gum has been destroyed or if further cleaning is needed.
As gum deposits are all different there will be varying times taken to destroy each piece.
Turn the red switch of which will isolate the machine.
Remove the Gas and Chemical bottles from the Ecogum system.
Turn the switch on to drain the unit until there is no fluid coming from the nozzle at the end
of the lance.
Turn the red switch off so the pump is no longer working.
Make sure the speed controller is at zero (0).
Turn the pump/gas/fan on by pushing the red switch on the right hand side of the rucksack
and then after 5 seconds push the red starter button until you hear the unit ignite.
The unit will take about 3 minutes to heat up.
Once the unit is up to temperature turn the speed controller to number one (1). (¼ past 12)
A small adjustment may be required on the speed controller depending on what type of
surface you are removing the gum and how much fluid is required.
