Caution: DO NOT attempt to start the burner when excess fuel has accumulated, or when the heat exchanger coil is
full of vapors, or when the combustion chamber is hot.
Vapor-Filled combustion chamber: Allow the unit to cool off and all vapors to dissipate before
attempting an- other start
Oil flooded combustion Chamber: Shut off the electrical power and the oil supply to the burner, then
clear all accumulated oil before continuing
When changing nozzles, always cool down water coil then turn off the machine, release high pressure trapped inside,
latch the trigger lock on the gun. Always point the nozzle away from you during this process. Never point the nozzle
towards any other persons or animals. Ensure the replacement nozzle is firmly secured in it’s position before you
start washing.
Maintenance
To remove any loose rust or scale which could become loose and clog the outlet nozzle or affect normal pump
operation, flush the machine for about two minutes prior to using it for the first time and again if the machine has not
been used for a few days. Flush the machine by removing the nozzle from the wand or by removing the complete
gun/wand assembly from the output hose and then turning on the pumping module. (It is not necessary to operate
the heater while you are flushing the unit.)
High pressure nozzle replacement interval: replace the high pressure nozzle whenever there is a noticeable drop in
performance. Use the correct size orifice than matches the out flow rate and pressure of the pumping unit.
High pressure hose maintenance check: visually inspect high pressure hoses dally. Check for any sections of the
hose that have signs of abrasion on the out sleeve. Ignoring this could lead to a hose rupture, or high pressure pin
hole leak.
Water Hardness and Scale Buildup
Units operated in areas with "hard" or high mineral content water supply are often prone to developing a scale buildup
within the heat exchanger coil (similar to deposits seen in electric kettles used to heat "hard" water). The tendency
for scale to accumulate can be minimized by completely cooling the coil after each use. Allow water to flow through
the coil with the burner turned “OFF” until the coil has cooled to the temperature of the inlet water. When water
conditions are such that scale buildup is inevitable, we recommend checking for visible accumulation of scale in the
heater coil regularly. If there is any scale visible inside the pipe at the heat exchanger outlet, have the coil de-scaled
by a qualified service technician. Refer to the de-scaling procedure outlined later in the appendix.
Check for scale buildup in the coil. Remove the hose from the heat exchanger outlet and look for any visible scale
accumulation. Excessive scale build up will reduce the heat transfer from the burner to the water, thus reducing the
effectiveness of the heater module.
DESCALING THE COIL
WARNING: Coil de-scaling using acid should only be done by qualified personnel.
The best way to acidize the coil is with a circulating pump capable of handling acids:
1. Fill a plastic container with a suitable acid diluted with water to the desired strength.
2. Connect the discharge from the circulating pump to the hot water outlet on the water heater with a suitable hose.
Connect the inlet of the circulating pump to the acid container with the suction hose. Disconnect the water
