Title: Snow foam lance set up
Post by: mad_pete on March 04, 2013, 02:01:01 pm

Stupid question but how do people set their lance up ? I have the nozzle that controls the 2 small plates at the front and the valve with plus and minus on the top. I was getting some nice foam but I played with the settings today and can't get the foam back.

The nozzle controls the width of the spray.

The dial on top controls the air mixture - adjust it fully one way and then the other to see which setting suits you.

If it still doesn't work, there might be a problem with the lance itself. May require servicing depending on how old it is.

Thanks it's new. Maybe I need to get the air mixture right before I change the spray width.

Yes mines defiantly not picking up from the bottle. I found a service guide I may try that.

Left it in hot water for 10 minutes and if
it was much better.
