Hydro Streamline 8691 Quick Start Manual

Troubleshooting Chart:
Problem Cause
1. No discharge a. No water
b. Magnetic valve not functioning
c. Excessive water pressure
d. Eductor clogged
e. Clogged water inlet strainer
2. No concentrate draw a. Clogged foot valve
b. Metering tip or eductor has
scale build-up
c. Low water pressure
d. Discharge tube and/or flooding
ring not in place
e. Concentrate container empty
f. Inlet hose barb not screwed
into eductor tightly
g. Clogged water inlet strainer
h. Air leak in chemical pick-up tube
3. Excess concentrate draw a. Metering tip not in place
b. Chemical above eductor
4. Failure of unit to turn off a. Water valve parts dirty or
defective
b. Magnet doesn't fully return
c. Push button stuck
5. Excess foaming in discharge a. Air leak in pick-up tube
* In hard water areas, scale may form inside the discharge end of the eductor, as well as in other areas of the unit that
are exposed to water. This scale may be removed by soaking the eductor in a descaling solution (deliming solution).
To remove an eductor located in the cabinet, firmly grasp water valve and unthread eductor. Replace in same manner.
Alternatively, a scaled eductor can be cleaned (or kept from scaling) by drawing the descaling solution through the unit.
Operate the unit with the suction tube in the descaling solution. Operate the unit until solution is drawn consistently, then
flush the unit by drawing clear water through it for a minute. Replace concentrate container and put suction tube into
concentrate.

Installation and Operation:
Repeat the following procedures as necessary for the number of eductors your unit contains.
1. Remove cabinet screws and cover. Drill holes for the three wall anchors with a 9/32" drill, using the cabinet back as a template
for proper spacing of the mounting screws. Install mounting anchors, and then screws in top two anchors. Slide key holes in cabinet
back over screw heads. Tighten screwsand install third (bottom) screw. Do not mount more than 6 ft. (1.8 m) above bottom of
concentrate container, nor below the highest concentrate level (never mount your concentrate higher than the Streamline unit).
2. Select a metering tip for each eductor and insert the tip into the hose barb on the eductor body.
3. Supply tube should reach from hose barb on eductor to bottom of concentrate container. If using more than one eductor, cut supply
tube provided to lengths required. Slide ceramic weight over one end of the tube and slide foot valve into the same end of the tube.
4. Slip open end of supply tube through an opening in either side of the cabinet and push over the hose barb/metering tip on the
eductor.
5. A short discharge tube is used with 1 GPM (grey) eductors; minimum tube length is 8" (20 cm) for proper operation. Longer (4
ft.) tubes are used with 3.5 GPM (yellow) eductors. Do not remove the flooding rings from inside the tubes. Slide end of tube with
flooding ring over eductor discharge outlet. Hooks on opposite end of longer tubes are provided to allow discharge tube to con-
veniently hang from the side cabinet openings. Hang up the discharge tube after each usage to prevent continuous siphoning
of concentrate.
6. Place foot valve end of supply tube into concentrate container. REMEMBER TO CHECK FOOT VALVE STRAINER PERIODI-
CALLY FOR CLOGGING: CLEAN IF NECESSARY.
7. Replace cabinet cover and screws.
8. Connect water supply hose of at least ½" ID to water inlet swivel. (Minimum 25 PSI pressure, with water running, is required for
proper operation.) Connect other end of hose to water supply. Turn on water supply.
9. Push button to start flow of desired water/concentrate solution, and hold until supply tube is primed (filled). Then push the button
whenever dispensing is desired, and release button to stop flow of solution. Optional twist-to-latch buttons are available for con-
tinuous dispensing without holding button.
