  • Page 2 HIGH-PRESSURE WASH EQUIPMENT AND THE SPRAYS THAT THEY GENERATE CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY. THINK SAFETY FIRST! The forces generated by high-pressure sprays can penetrate clothing or skin and cause severe personal injury. Additionally, the high-pressure spray and material dislodged by it may be deflected back toward you and/or persons or objects nearby.
  • Page 3 This manual contains operational information that is specific for the Electrically Heated Industrial Hot Water Fully Electric Models. Read the following instructions carefully before attempting to assemble, install, operate, or service this pressure washer. Failure to comply with these instructions could result in personal injury and/or property damage.

  • Page 8 Our goal is that you will be satisfied with the performance, quality, and service you receive from Easy-Kleen and that if you need to replace this machine in years to come, you will give us the opportunity to continue supplying your equipment.
  • Page 9 The electrical single heater consists of a, single coil heat exchanger, control components, thermo probe, float switch, high pressure hoses, and connections. THIS MACHINE SHOULD BE PROTECTED FROM FREEZING AT ALL TIMES. (SEE MAINTENANCE) Place system in any suitable location. Adjust the leg bolts to level the unit. It is recommended to provide ample room and support for installation, maintenance, and operation of elevated systems.
  • Page 10 The function of our heat exchangers is to enhance an existing high pressure cold water wash system by enabling it to create hot water downstream of the height pressure pump. It also allows the system to operate automatically, virtually eliminating the problems that are often associated with “hands-on” controls.
  • Page 11 The high pressure pump motor is to be connected to the motor contactor overload connections labeled T4, T5, and T6. Be sure that the motor current (see FLA rating on motor plate) is within the current rating of the motor overload, and that the overload is set to the proper current level. A ground lug is also provided for the motor circuit.
  • Page 12 CAUTION: Pressure cleaning gun must be HELD ONTO SECURELY when the pump is turned on as serious personal injury may be inflicted if spray wand is allowed to move freely. High pressure spray can cause SERIOUS BODILY HARM - HANDLE WITH CARE - NEVER POINT SPRAY AT ANY PART OF THE BODY.
  • Page 13 FAILURE TO MAINTAIN YOUR PRESSURE WASHER/EQUIPMENT, INCLUDING REGULAR MAINTENANCE OF PUMP AND SYSTEM COMPONENTS, WILL VOID MANUFACTURER’S WARRANTY. PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSES SOLUTIONS Excessive pressure and/ - Check pressures and/or temperature. Reduce to acceptable or temperature of fluid level. Reduce pressure. being pumped.
  • Page 14 Regular inspection and maintenance of your system is the best defense against equipment failure and costly downtime. Additionally, the high-pressure wash systems can create safety hazards. Simple checks, performed by the operator of the equipment or maintenance personnel on a regular basis, will help to ensure safe operation and that the system’s maximum performance and life cycle is achieved.
  • Page 15 MONTHLY 1. Update your record of inspections, problems, or any potential problems. 2. Check for any oil leaks at the crankcase, crankshaft, or piston seals. 3. Check controls are working within specifications. QUARTERLY 1. Change the pump oil every 3 months or 500 hours of use, whichever occurs first. 2.
  • Page 16 If the equipment will be used or stored in areas where it will be exposed to temperatures below 0° Celsius (32° Fahrenheit) for any period of time, precautions must be taken to prevent damage due to freezing. DRAINING THE SYSTEM DOES NOT OFFER ADEQUATE PROTECTION. Use of a high quality plumbing antifreeze or automotive windshield washer antifreeze is recommended.
  • Page 17: Heat Exchanger

    The design feature of our Heat Exchanger allows high pressure cold water to be heated in an unpressurized tank. Cold water entering the heat exchanger passes through a coil submerged in heated water. Electrical controls for the exchanger and pumping package are mounted on the outside of the tank.

  • Page 23 PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION Make sure pump is operating. Check drive belts and couplings, make necessary No power adjustments. Trigger gun valve Check trigger gun, repair or replace. No water source Ensure water supply is not restricted and hoses are in good repair and not kinked. No Flow Clogged spray nozzle Check spray nozzle, repair or replace.
  • Page 24 PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION Inspect places where air can enter the system. i.e. fittings, hose, Air in system connections, etc. If the chemical valve is on, ensure that the chemical line is fully submerged in Chemical line not submerged the chemical. All inlet connections should be snug and not kinked to reduce the chances of Inlet line restricted pump starvation.
  • Page 25 PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION Any variation in flow from what the orifice is sized can cause cycling. Improper flow System must produce the rated flow constantly. Nozzle too small A nozzle that is too small can cause the flow to be reduced. Nozzle clogged A distorted spray pattern indicates a clogged nozzle.
  • Page 26 ANY LEAKS SHOULD BE REPAIRED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO THE SYSTEM. PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION From inlet Garden hose washer Ensure the washer is present and in good condition. From low pressure (inlet) Loose clamps or connections Low pressure line should be properly sealed on barb and tightly clamped.
  • Page 27 PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION If water flows through discharge hose without gun, check trigger gun valve piston Broken piston rod in trigger gun rod and replace if necessary. No nozzle flow from nozzle when trigger Missing metal insert in trigger gun Inspect to assure insert is in place.
