COUPLINGAND BASE SERVICE PROCEDURE
TOOLS REQUIRED
1/8, 5/16Allen(hex) wrench
Loctite #271 thread locking adhesive
oxyacetylene torch
GENERAL: Occasional replacement of hose gaskets is recommended. Replace
GASKET GRABBER [13c or 3b] if severe impact has caused damage. Coupling
service kits which include all hardware and Loctite® #271 are available for all stan-
dard 1.5” or 2.5” couplings. Special configurations or model changes to a nozzle
can be made by selecting the desired coupling or base. Couplings with special
or standard threads are interchangeable and may be exchanged on new nozzles.
Please specify desired threads when ordering.
COUPLING AND BLITZ BASE REMOVAL: All couplings and blitz bases are re-
tained with a ball race and set screw. Heat and then remove the ¼”-28 SOCKET
SET SCREW [5c, or 1b] from the coupling using a 1/8”Allen wrench. Turn coupling
so that hole faces down and rotate coupling back and forth to allow 3/16” STAIN-
LESS STEEL BALLS [4b, 15c or 5b] to drop out. When all the balls are out of the
groove,thecoupling can be removed. Remove GASKET GRABBER/ debris screen
[13c, or 3b] from the coupling.
NOTE: On couplings [6c, 9c, 11c and 12c] and Base [2b], O-RING 141 [14c and
4b]willbefound adjacent to the GASKETGRABBER[13c, or 3b]. On coupling [2c],
O-RING 151 [3c] is used. Replace and grease the proper O-Ring before installing
the coupling.
COUPLING AND BLITZ BASE INSTALLATION: Insert the GASKET GRABBER/
debris screen [13c, or 3b] into the coupling, raised end pointing toward the front of
the nozzle. Put the coupling onto the mating part and load the correct number of
balls into the ball groove (SEE PARTS LIST ON EXPLODED VIEW OF NOZZLE
TO DETERMINE CORRECT NUMBER OF STAINLESS STEEL BALLS [4c, 15b
or 5b] FOR YOUR COUPLING). Insertion of the balls is easier if the coupling is ro-
tated slightly back and forth as the balls are loaded.Apply Loctite® #271 and install
proper¼”-28SOCKETSET SCREW [5c, or 1b].The set screw should be flush with
the surface of the coupling. If the coupling is difficult to turn, or feels rough when
turned,theset screw is in toofar.Backset screw offaturnor so and try again.Ifthe
feel is still not correct, recheck the number of balls in the coupling. On TIP ONLY
COUPLINGS and BLITZ BASES run the screw into the slot on the ball groove until
it bottoms out without applying pressure.
TIP ONLY BASE SERVICE: The TIP ONLY BASE [8b] is attached to the TIPONLY
BARRELASSEMBLY [7f ] by a threaded joint which is retained by Loctite® #271.
Apply heat to the knurled rib nearest the front of the nozzle. Damage to seals and
labelscanbereducedbyprotecting themwithawetcloth.TheTIPONLYBASE[8b]
can now be unscrewed. Remove and replace O-RING 143 [9b]. Clean all threads,
apply Loctite® #271 to threads and screw together.
TWIST TYPE VALVE SERVICE PROCEDURE
STO SLEEVE SERVICE:Toremove the STO SLEEVE [14b], first heatand remove
the CAM SCREWS [15b] and DETENT SCREWS [16b]. The detent screws contain
SPRINGS [18b] and BALLS [17b]. Then, STO SLEEVE [14b] can be slid off. Ser-
vice to interior STO valve should be done prior to reinstalling STO sleeve. Inspect
O-RINGS [19b] and replace if damaged. Installation is reverse of removal. Before
reassembly, grease O-Rings. Clean screw threads and apply Loctite® #271.
STO VALVE SERVICE: Heat the back end of the STO BASE [20b] with a torch and
unscrewthe STOTAILPIECE [11b].The STO SLIDER [13b] may nowbe removed.

SHELL SERVICE PROCEDURE
SHAPER REMOVAL: The rubber bumper is permanently bonded onto the stream
shaper as a single unit referred to as the SHAPER [10f]. The shaper is attached
to the SHAPER GUIDE [4f, or 5f] by a threaded joint that is retained by Loctite®
#271. Grip rear portion of the nozzle in a vise with padded jaws, or clamp SHAPER
GUIDE [4f, or 5f] using TFT special tool TH502 held in a vise. Direct a hot narrow
flamearound the rear portion ofthe shaper and heatfor approximately 20seconds.
Damage to BUMPER [10f] and LABELS [1f, 2f, or 6f] can be reduced by protecting
them with a wet cloth. Use a strap wrench to unscrew the shaper from the shaper
guide. Remove the shaper. Inside the shaper are (48) 13/16”ACETALBALLS [8f],
some of which may fall free as the Shaper is removed. If Shaper is to be reused,
clean ball track and replace 336 O-RING [9f] if damaged.
SERVICE TO CAM GROOVES AND BALLS: When Shaper is removed, check
to see if the stream shaping GUIDE BALLS [3f] and CAM GROOVES [7f - part of
BARRELCONE ASSEMBLY] are damaged. Replace Balls if sheared or missing. If
the CAM GROOVES are badly damaged, the BARREL CONE ASSEMBLY should
also be replaced.
BARREL CONE ASSEMBLY SERVICE: This assembly is permanent and cannot
be taken apart. Check to ensure that the flush spring is not damaged by pushing
down on the Barrel Cone with both hands (about 50 lbs force). The Barrel Cone
AssemblyshouldbereplacediftheBarrel Cone does not push down or spring back
up by itself. Lightly grease the CAM GROOVES before re-installing the SHAPER
GUIDE.
SHAPER INSTALLATION: Install 336 O-RING [9f] in front groove of SHAPER
[10f]. Grease the seal and ball groove heavily. Place (48) 13/16” ACETAL BALLS
[8f] into greased ball groove. Apply Loctite® #271 to male thread on SHAPER
GUIDE[4f, or5f].StartshaperontoSHAPERGUIDEthreads. PlacethreeSHAPER
GUIDE BALLS [3f] into the grooves on barrel and screw down shaper until threads
bottom out.

WARRANTY
Task Force Tips, Inc., 3701 Innovation Way, Valparaiso, Indiana 46383-9327 (“TFT”) warrants to the original purchaser of its Ultimatic,
Mid-Matic, and Handline series nozzles (“equipment”), and to anyone to whom it is transferred, that the equipment shall be free from
defects in material and workmanship during the five (5) year period from the date of purchase.
TFT’s obligation under this warranty is specifically limited to replacing or repairing the equipment (or its parts) which are shown by
TFT’s examination to be in a defective condition attributable to TFT. To qualify for this limited warranty, the claimant must return the
equipment to TFT, at3701 Innovation Way, Valparaiso, Indiana 46383-9327, within a reasonable time after discovery of the defect.
TFT will examine the equipment. If TFT determines that there is a defect attributable to it, TFT will correct the problem within a
reasonable time. If the equipment is covered by this limited warranty, TFT will assume the expenses of repair.
If any defect attributable to TFT under this limited warranty cannot be reasonably cured by repair or replacement, TFT may elect to
refund the purchase price of the equipment, less reasonable depreciation, in complete discharge of its obligations under this limited
warranty. If TFT makes this election, claimant shall return the equipment to TFT free and clear of any liens and encumbrances.
This is a limited warranty. The original purchaser of the equipment, any person to whom it is transferred, and any person who is
an intended or unintended beneficiary of the equipment, shall not be entitled to recover from TFT any consequential or incidental
damages for injury to person and/or property resulting from any defective equipment manufactured or assembled by TFT. It is agreed
and understood that the price stated for the equipment is in part consideration for limiting TFT’s liability. Some states do not allow the
exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above may not apply to you.
TFT shall have no obligation under this limited warranty if the equipment is, or has been, misused or neglected (including failure to
provide reasonable maintenance) or if there have been accidents to the equipment or if it has been repaired or altered by someone
else.
