K. Kline lists six areas that cause most water system trouble that could be prevented. Owners who can not check their own sys­ tems probably Will save money by calling a serviceman. Water system motors that re** quire lubrication wilt need a good grade of oil such as SAB 30 or 20, They, should be oiled, about every 3 months. Stuffing box adjustments wi l l - save lenakge from packing that is too loose or wear from packing that is too tight, When, the cap on the end of the box is correctly ad­ justed, a. few drops of water a min­ ute will leak through and lubricate the packing. Correct tension of V-beltn On water pumps is about the same as that on an automobile inn belt, KJinc says a correctly ad­ justed belt can be pushed' % to J4 inch from a straight line between pulley faces, Boose belts waste power. Belts that are too tight cause excessive wear on bear­ ings. If water faucets "spit", there probably Is too much air la the tank. Too little air will cause the pump to start and stop too fre­ quently.

Mo­ tors need external cleaning a t least once a year. Some neglected motors may need to be taken apart and cleaned inside. Carbon tetrachloride is a good nonflam­ mable solvent to use, Presure relief valves in water systems need checking once a year. This valve is in the line on the d i s c h a r g e side of reciprocating pumps, Neither jet nor centrifugal type pumps need relief Valves, C s a f d b e s e v e r y p c a s s i i i g b r e e z e You have it "double exposure" Id nix the held when you’te wearing a pair of our Jnrmmi Mirnek Mesh styles that, cnlch every passing brCKte and keep you tool; and comfortable.
