Rig Setup & Equipment

Heated hoses, proportioners, generators, and gun maintenance. Get the rig running clean.

120 min 7 modules
Lesson

From a cold rig to a dialed spray — every step of getting equipment running clean and safe.

We cover the proportioner: priming, pressure balancing, and reading the gauges that tell you the rig is healthy before you pull the trigger.

Then hoses and heat: choosing hose length, setting temperatures for the material and the weather, and managing pressure drop over a long run.

Next the gun: mix chambers, nozzle selection, cleaning, and the maintenance that prevents spitting, surging, and off-ratio foam.

We finish with generators, power management, and the daily start-up and shut-down sequence that keeps the rig alive season after season.

This is the course to take before you run your first set, or to fix the bad habits you picked up on the fly.
