TUNINGADUMP&FILLMACHINESECTION
Tuningisessentialforpropercleaning;donotskipthisIMPORTANTPROCEDURE
Thekeytounderstandingpropertuningistorealizethatthedrainsequencecannotbechanged.Itisafixed
timefunctionandtheregulatorofthecyclebetweenwashandrinse.Therefore,alltuningisaccomplishedby
settingoradjustingthefillcaminrelationshiptothefixeddraincam.Thegoaloftuningistoeliminateall
soiledwashwaterthroughthedrain,beforethedraincloses.Asignthatsoiledwashwaterhasexitedthe
tankwillbethetypicalhollowsoundofapumprunningwithoutwater.

ItisatthispointthattheH2O(FILL)camshouldbeadjustedsothewatersolenoidturnsthefillwateron.That
functioniscontrolledbytheadjustmentofthefillcam.Foroptimumresults,allowthefillwatertoflushthe
interiorofthemachineforafewsecondsbeforethedraincloses.Oncethedrainisclosedthefillcyclebegins.
Fillmustcontinueuntilfullsprayarmpressureisreached.Thiscanbeverifiedwiththeuseofasprayarm
pressuretester(Kit#088‐1048)attachedwhereoneoftheendplugsareusuallyscrewedintothelowerwash
arm.Thetestergaugewillindicatefullsprayarmpressurewhentheneedlestopsfluctuatingandremains
steady.AdjustthefillcamtoturnthewaterOFFwhenthispointofsteadypressureisreached.Itisimportant
thatthemachineisnotoverfilled.UsejustenoughwatertoreachFullSpray‐armPressure(FSP),nomore
thanthatisneededforproperoperation.


Ifapressuregaugetesterisnotavailable,anapproximationoffullsprayarmpressurecouldbedeterminedby
thesoundofthesprayarms.Therewouldbeatypicalcontinuousswishingsoundofthewaterspraying.
Again,whenthissoundisheard,thatwouldbethepointtoturnthewaterOFF.Sevensecondsoffullspray
armrinsepressureisrequiredbyhealthcode.Intheeventthatairistrappedinthepumpduringfill,avapor
lockcanoccurwherethepumpisturningbutthereisnospraying.

Ifthisvaporlockoccurs,checkincomingwatertemperatureandreducethetemperatureifitisabove140‐
150F.Operatingtemperatureof120Fdegreesistheminimum,130‐140Fdegreesisrecommended.Ifthe
problemiscausedbylowwaterpressuretothemachine,thenseethePlumbingSectionabovetocorrectthat
condition.Ifvaporlockisstillpresent,electricallystoporpausethepumptoreleaseair.Thismachinehasa
