Line marking equipment is a crucial investment for sports clubs, schools, and municipalities. Proper maintenance ensures that your equipment delivers precise results and lasts for years, saving you time and money. Here are five essential tips to extend the lifespan of your line marking gear, with a focus on Fleet Line Markers' products and solutions.

PERFORM REGULAR CLEANING

After every use, thoroughly clean your equipment to prevent paint build-up and blockages. Dried paint can clog nozzles and hoses, affecting performance and accuracy. Use appropriate cleaning solutions such as Fleets Kombi Klean which is designed to be run through your machine or to leave parts in to soak overnight. Never leave paint in the system overnight to ensure optimal performance.

STORE PROPERLY

Proper storage is key to keeping your equipment in good shape. Store your line marking machine in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Fleet Line Markers designs machines with durability in mind, but it’s still essential to drain paint from the machine before storage to prevent damage caused by paint drying in the lines or tanks. Their storage-friendly designs make maintenance easier for users. If you are storing your equipment for a long period of time make sure you charge and discharge your battery regularly.

INSPECT AND REPLACE PARTS REGULARLY

Frequent inspections can help you identify wear and tear before it becomes a significant issue. Check hoses, nozzles, and wheels for signs of damage or degradation. Fleet Line Markers provides a wide range of replacement parts and accessories, ensuring that you can easily maintain your equipment. Replacing worn-out parts promptly avoids compromising the quality of your markings and prevents further damage to your machine.

USE QUALITY PAINT AND SUPPLIES

The quality of paint and accessories you use can significantly impact the longevity of your equipment. Opt for paints that are specifically designed for your line marking machine. Fleet Line Markers’ premium paint range is formulated for compatibility with their machines, reducing the risk of clogs, corrosion, or uneven application. By choosing Fleet’s high-quality supplies, you can extend the life of your equipment while achieving professional results.

FOLLOW THE MANUFACTURERS GUIDELINES

Every piece of equipment comes with specific maintenance instructions from the manufacturer. Adhering to these guidelines ensures optimal performance and extends the machine's lifespan. Fleet Line Markers provides comprehensive manuals and customer support to help you get the most out of your machine. Regular servicing, as recommended by Fleet, can also help catch potential problems early, keeping your projects on track.

Taking care of your line marking equipment not only enhances its performance but also maximises your return on investment. With regular cleaning, proper storage, timely part replacements, quality supplies, and adherence to manufacturer recommendations, you can keep your equipment in top condition for years to come.

Fleet Line Markers’ innovative products and dedicated support make maintenance straightforward and effective. By incorporating these tips into your routine and relying on Fleet’s trusted solutions, you’ll ensure that your line marking projects continue to be precise, efficient, and hassle-free.
