What types of Spray rigs do you use or like?

This is sort of a duplicate posting under textures I asked the same question. I use a AST gas 250 gal. trailer mount spray rig... modified with tool boxes, ladder rack, a high/low switch at the gun. Flex gun with a binks head... Love it! What do all of you use?

I Am New Here, I Have A Spray King. It Seems I Should Have Looked Closer When I Bought It. Everytime I Pull The Valve To Turn Stator On It Seems To Bind Up At The Transmission Box.
Has Any One Had This Similliar Issue Before ?

JCardoza · 07-10-2008, 02:07 AM

Ok good chance it's a relatively easy fix.

on the stator tube pumps often the rotor will bind inside the stator tube... On my American Spray Tech spray rig I fix it by removing the hose and turn the actual rotor (the rod that runs down the center of the stator pump) by hand with a tire iron or large socket I keep around for this reason. Then ideally run some watery mud through it first. My rig tends to bind a few times after I put a new stator tube on... till it's worn down a bit. Also never (or at least rarely) do a complete washout of a rotor stator pump with just water and if you do DON'T LET IT JUST SIT CLEAN it will be much more likely to bind up.

if you want to let it sit clean run a little dish soap in the water and leave it there as a lubricant. A clean metal on rubber pump is hard for the spray rig to get moving till it has some mud for lubricant. Now you may have a mechanical problem besides but this is the first place to check.

If you can turn the pump by hand and then switch the rig on and it still won't turn... then start looking elsewhere.
