OPERATIONS
PRIMING THE CHEMICAL PUMP
1. Connect water hose to water inlet connection
and turn on water supply.
2. Connect cleaning and vacuum hoses to the
desired cleaning tool and console.
3. Insert chemical inlet and prime tubing into
chemical container.
4. Turn ignition key to start.
5. Set throttle to low speed.
6. Fill chemical container and inspect chemical
filter.
7. Turn chemical prime valve to prime and allow
chemical to circulate. After all air bubbles have
been removed from chemical tubing, turn the
valve to the horizontal (off) position and open
the chemical metering valve, and the simulation
valve. Set the desired chemical flow rate while
observing the flow meter indicator. Simulator
valve must be in the open position to set
chemical flow. When desired flow is reached
turn simulator valve off.
8. Set throttle to maximum position with vacuum
ports blocked off for quick unit heat up.
WASTE PUMP (OPTIONAL)
1. If your unit is equipped with an automatic waste
pump, connect one end of a garden hose to the
pump-out connection on the console and the
other end to an appropriate waste disposal.
2. Turn the pump-out switch on the control panel to
the ON position. Turn the toggle switch on the
pump unit to "ON". The waste pump will operate
automatically throughout the cleaning operation.
