SCORPION ROD CLEANING PACKAGE
Prev ] Index Page ] Next ]



This scorpion system is made up of rods and snakes that are hollow and carry high pressure air to the interchangeable agitation devices. These rods have quick disconnects so they can be joined together quickly and allow you to push the agitation device up to 100' in the duct work and everything will go through a 1" hole (except for the SSFB). The rods are designed not to come apart inside the duct. Compressed air causes the tentacles on the predator and octopus whips to thrash in every direction at once hitting the duct work and wiping it clean. If there are pieces of heavy debris that will not become airborne, you will use either a forward or reverse blowing skipper ball to push or pull the debris to the suction hose. The Octopus Predator Whip has less “wallop” than the Mini Predator. The Mini Predator Whip has less “wallop” than the Single Predator Whip. The lighter the “wallop” the easier it is to clean fragile duct work. Eg. flexduct or insulated duct. This system cleans rectangular duct work better than brushes.
NOTE:   Higher air pressure is more productive and cleans easier.

    CARE AND MAINTENANCE OF SCORPION RODS


    Cleaning Female Quick Disconnects
    Dip fittings in mineral oil (varsol or paint thinner) and give them a blast of air from a blowgun which cleans the liquid and the dust out of them. Do this several times to get them really clean.


    Do not use any solvent that contains oil.
    Do not lubricate with oil as the film will only attract and hold on to the dirt, where as dry fittings stay cleaner longer.


    Trouble Shooting
    • If you are not able to connect the rods, the female quick disconnect may be in the locked position, (will not accept the male plug).(Fig. 1)


    • Take a pencil and depress the plunger inside the fitting about 1/4" and hold it there. (Fig. 2)


    • Then grab the outer sleeve and pull it back and hold there, (Fig. 3) then release the pencil. (Fig. 4) The outer sleeve should stay back which means the quick disconnect is unlocked ready to use. (Fig. 5)


    • Another way of telling whether the quick disconnect is locked is to compare the outer sleeve on an unlocked fitting. (Fig. 6) The outer sleeve on a locked fitting is more forward than the other fitting.



    Storage
    To keep rods straight in the truck, use 4' of PVC tubing and install at a 45 degree angle on the wall of your truck.
