SOLUTION VALVE CABLE ADJUSTMENT
The solution valve cable has been factory set so that
action of the solution lever moves the valve from fully
closed to fully open. As the machine operates the cable
will stretch and the lever will not be able to fully open the
valve. The play in the solution lever should be checked
periodically and adjusted when needed as described
below.
1.
Loosen the lock nut at the point where the cable
enters the lever housing on the machine handle.
2.
Turn the threaded end of the cable sleeve to
adjust. Threading the end further into the
housing will slacken the cable, increasing the
play in the lever. Threading the end out of the
housing will tighten the cable, decreasing the
play in the lever.
3.
Tighten the locking nut against the housing after
adjusting the play as required.
4.
If there is not enough thread adjustment
available, the cable length can be adjusted
directly at its connection to the solution valve.
This is accessed by removing the back control
panel.
SPRAY JET
Note: To prevent a clogged jet due to alkali build-up,
the spray system should be flushed with 1 to 2 gallons
of clean hot water at the end of each day.
1.
Situate machine in order to access bottom cover.
2.
The machine is equipped with a "Quick Change"
jet that can be easily removed for cleaning. To
remove- push jet in and rotate 1/4 turn.
3.
Wash jet and blow dry. Do not use pins or wire
to remove obstruction as this will change spray
pattern.
