Page 15: Operating Instructions
• The Elite Soldier Water Jet will pull out past 350' but you will find the going slower because of the pressure loss from extra hose length . Unless longer operation is common, we recommend the hose extensions be added only when needed . If moving the jet before the job is done, the hose can be disconnected from the jet to avoid pulling hose completely out of pipe and restarting . - Page 16 • Although the Elite Soldier is capable of various high pressure cleaning operations, jetting pipes of 4" - 15" is typically the major work required of the jet . The hose reel is designed for outdoor applications . See sections on the mobile hose reel and 1/4" drain hose for indoor or remote applications and for lines smaller than 6"...

Page 17: Wash Down Kit - 73817300
Operating Instructions ENCOUNTERING OBSTRUCTIONS • When obstruction or corners are encountered it may be necessary to manually rotate the hose (See Fig . 19-1) to enable feed through that area . The rotation will cause the jetting nozzle to jump over or around those areas . Any rotations in one direction must be followed by an equal number in the opposite direction to prevent kinks from building in the hose . -
Page 18: 1/4" Drain Hose
1/4" Drain Hose The 1/4" hose and nozzle may be used to clean smaller diameter lines . Attach the 1/4" hose to the forward end of the wash down gun as described on the previous page . Use the 1/4" drain hose on lines 2" - 4" similar to the reel hose . Again, use care not to discharge water unless the hose is in the pipe . On inside lines, use short bursts of the gun to limit water backup . -

The VIN label will identify the units GVWR and GAWR . - Page 32 The proper air pressure may be found on the Certification/VIN label and/or the Tire Information placard . High speed towing in hot conditions degrades the life of the Elite Soldier's tires . The internal heat generated form high speeds breaks down the tire's internal structure . It is recommended to drive at moderate speeds .
- Page 33 Tire Safety Information Tire Balance and Wheel Alignment • Tires must be properly balanced to avoid vibrations and shaking of the trailer . A wheel alignment adjusts the angles of the wheels to position them correctly relative to the trailer's frame .
