Service002 - lance, leak
Service003 - feeding valve, leak
Service004 - filter, weak liquid flow
Service005 - maximum pressure not available
Service006 - not continuous liquid flow
Service007 - lack of pressure in TITAN, block of pump handle


Service001 - handle, valve, leak, most often after winter:
Symptom:
The handle of lance is leaking after winter season.
Reason:
A) Broken handle or valve - the unit has been blown up from inside by the frozen water.
You should always leave your sprayer empty for winter storing.
B) The valve or hose nut is not tightly enough screwed.
Solution:
A) Replace the unit (R020j)
B) Screw the elements or replace the seal

Service002 - lance, leak
Symptom:
The lance is spraying despite the feeding valve (R020j) is closed.
Reason:
The upper seal of piston in feeding valve is damaged. This happens mainly if it has not been smeared with silicone smear (Z05).
Solution:
Replace the seals or piston (alternatively whole valve R020j).
Smear with Marolex silicone smear Z05.
The silicone smear is available in the following kits: Z05, Z06, Z08j, Z08jV, Z08b, Tit37, Tit37v, Z08m

Service003 - feeding valve, leak
Symptom:
The feeding valve leaks.
Reason:
The upper seal of piston in feeding valve is probably damaged, most likely because of not smearing periodically with silicone smear Z05
Solution:
Replace the seals or piston (alternatively whole valve R020j).
Smear with Marolex silicone smear Z05.
The silicone smear is available in the following kits: Z05, Z06, Z08j, Z08jV, Z08b, Tit37, Tit37v, Z08m

Service004 - filter, weak liquid flow
Symptom:
Weak liquid flow despite maximum pressure in the tank.
Reason:
Polluted filter R40
Solution:
Unscrew the hose, take out the filter R40, clean or replace it.
The filter R40 is available in the following kits: R40, Z08j, Z08jV, Z08b, Tit37, Tit37v.

Service005 - maximum pressure not available
Symptom:
Block of pump handle, the handle cannot be moved in any direction.
Reason:
Probably the rubber valve balls have swollen in contact with aggressive chemicals in the sprayer` s pump.
Marolex have eliminated this problem by introducing, in March 2006, balls made of technical glass / (GVS - System).
Marolex patent pending no. P - 379370. Technical details
Solution:
In older models with rubber balls in pump` s valve you should:
Demount the pump unit by removing the lever tie(T20) from the pump and unscrewing the pump nut. Remove the pump unit and the mixer, disassembly the pump into two parts: white element (T24 pump cover) and black element (T5 pump). Unscrew the nuts from these elements (T16 and T15) under which the balls are placed. Replace the rubber balls with glass ones and mount the pump - follow the above instructions in reverse order. While mounting back the pump smear the O-ring (T11) with silicone smear (Z06)
This problem occurs very rarely (ca. 1/300 users of older Titan).

Service006 - not continuous liquid flow
Symptom:
Water bubbles in the hose or the flow of water is not continuous.
Reason:
The intake pipe (M08) is not fully pushed into the hose end tip (R82c)
Solution
Unscrew the hose from the tank, take the intake pipe out and  push it into it - if necessary use appropriate glue.
