Operation Manual
Maintenance Schedule
Daily
1. Walk around unit. Look for loose or missing nuts or bolts or exterior damage.
2. Inspect Supply Cord and Cart Plug for cracks or missing insulation.
3. Inspect inside plumbing compartment for loose wiring or missing covers.
4. Check for low tire pressure.

Monthly/Hourly
1. Check all hoses and lines for leaks.
2. Check aircraft fittings and plugs for functionality. All fittings must have plugs, caps, or stow flanges.
3. Check tire pressure - 50 psi recommended.
4. Clean the finish of the cart with soap and water.

Every 90 Days (perform these checks and all previous checks)


1. Test pump. Run the pump and check for leaks, adequate pressure, and flow.
2. If low pressure of flow, clean any filters, strainers or in-line flow meters.
3. Inspect hoses, fittings, and couplers for condition.
4. Replace all hoses, fittings, and seals on condition.

Semi-annually
1. Pack wheel bearings and replace wheel seals on condition.
2. Inspect frame and enclosure for loose or missing bolts.
3. Inspect hoses for damage or dry rot. Replace on condition.

Potable Water Tank Cleaning Instructions
Applies to all AERO Water Carts (WC15, WC30, WC40/60/80-RJ1, WC100, WC150, WC180-RJ2,
WC270-RJ3, WC270-Insert)
Recommended Frequency: AERO Specialties recommends that all of its water cart tanks be thor-
oughly cleaned every 30 days.
Recommended Cleaning Materials: AERO Specialties recommends using its Drox Cleaning Kit (Part
No. DROX Kit) for all tank cleaning. The kit contains the following items:
• Drox (1 quart; 1:10 dilution). Drox is a citrus-based,
powerful blend of inhibited cleaning agents espe-
cially compounded to remove scale, mineral and lime
deposits from stainless steel. Drox is NOT classified
HAZMAT, but you must clear its
disposal down storm drains with your local airport
authority.
• 3M Respirator (No. N95)
• Nylon scrub brush
• Scotch-Brite pads (2)
• Heavy-duty rubber cleaning gloves

Recommended Cleaning Instructions:


1. Fill tank one-quarter full of water.
2. Pour proper quantity of Drox into tank (WC30: approximately 10 ounces; WC40-RJ: 14 ounces;
WC60-RJ: 20 ounces; WC80-RJ: 26 ounces; WC100: 32 ounces; WC150: 48 ounces; WC180: 54
ounces; WC270: 68 ounces)
3. After covering nose & mouth with the respirator and donning the rubber gloves, scrub entire
inside of the tank with the Scotch-Brite pad. Use the nylon scrub brush for hard-to-reach areas.
4. Drain the tank and flush thoroughly twice with cold water.
5. OPTIONAL neutralizing procedure: fill tank one-quarter full with water and dissolve a small box of
baking soda. Slosh mixture around entire tank. Rinse twice with cold water.
IMPORTANT: Never, EVER, use any metal pads or brushes to clean the stainless tank. Metal pads,
brushes, or steel wool will irreparably scratch the stainless tank, causing the tank to rust. There is
no way to repair the tank if it rusts. FDA regulations prohibit any potable water tank from operating
if containing rust.
NOTE: These instructions are AERO Specialties’ recommendations for maintaining your AERO
Specialties Potable Water Service Cart. PLEASE CONTACT TO YOUR LOCAL REGULATORY AGENCY
FOR THEIR SPECIFIC CLEANING REQUIREMENTS.
