SYSTEM CONCEPT
This is how the TMT 3000 works:
Incoming water enters the water box and is pressurized by the high pressure water1.
pump. The water is heated by the engine and blower exhaust in the cross ow heat
exchanger.
Cleaning solution is then injected into the pressurized water stream and the heated2.
solution is delivered to the cleaning tool.
The solution is recovered by the vacuum generated by the vacuum pump and is3.
collected in the recovery tank for proper disposal.

possible injury or death.
This CAUTION symbol is used to warn of possible equipment damage.
This NOTICE symbol indicates that federal or state regulatory laws may apply,
and also emphasizes supplemental information.

General Information: 1-6
Warnings and Cautions specic to the TMT 3000 include the following:
During the operation of the truckmount many components are in motion. Never
touch any part of the truckmount that is in motion. Serious injury may result.
During the operation of the truckmount many surfaces will become extremely hot.
Never touch hot surfaces. Serious injury may result.
The operation of this truckmount can produce noise levels exceeding 85 decibels
to a distance of 10 ft (3.05 m). The Occupational Safety and Health Administration
(OSHA) recommends the use of hearing protective equipment if a person is
exposed to an average of 85 decibels over an 8-hour period. Check with local
and state agencies concerning hearing conservation rules.
During the operation of the truckmount carbon monoxide and other toxic fumes
are produced. Position the vehicle so that any fumes produced will be directed
away from inhabited areas and any points of building entry (doors, windows, air
conditioning units, fans, etc.). Do not occupy the vehicle while the truckmount is
in operation. Serious injury may result.
During the operation of the truckmount, chemicals known to the State of California
to cause cancer, birth defects and other reproductive harm are produced by the
engine exhaust.
Never operate the truckmount with a portable gas container inside the vehicle.
Doing so will increase the risk of re and explosion. Serious injury or death may
result. See page 1-10 of this Owner’s Manual for more information.
Transporting a vented fuel container that presently contains, or has ever contained
in the past, a ammable liquid is strictly forbidden by HydraMaster and by federal
and state regulations. Doing so will increase the risk of re and explosion. Serious
injury or death may result.

1-7: General Information
Never smoke in or around the truckmount. Doing so will increase the risk of re
and explosion. Serious injury or death may result.
During the operation of the truckmount the exhaust system will become extremely
hot. Keep all ammable materials away from the truckmount exhaust system.
Failure to do so will increase the risk of re and explosion. Serious property
damage may result.
Do not use a high pressure solution hose that is rated below the specications of
the TMT 3000. Serious injury may result.
Never operate the truckmount when the vehicle is tilted more than 10 degrees in
any direction. Doing so will result in improper lubrication of the internal components,
and will increase the risk of serious component or engine damage.
Never perform cleaning operations when the truckmount engine is running
at the IDLE throttle position. Failure to do so will increase the risk of serious
component or engine damage. Refer to Section 4 of this Owner’s Manual for
more information.

HIGH ALTITUDE OPERATION
Elevation plays a key role in how the truckmount will operate. Operation at high altitude
(above 5,000 ft [1,524 m]) may require a high-altitude carburetor jet. Use of this jet at high
altitude will improve power, reduce fuel consumption and help reduce excessive carbon
build-up in the exhaust and heat exchanger systems.
Contact the local Briggs and Stratton dealer or HydraMaster to obtain the proper jet size.
Find your local Briggs and Stratton dealer at http://vanguardengines.via.infonow.net/
locator.
LOCAL WATER PRECAUTIONS
The quality of water varies greatly. Many areas have an excess of minerals in the water
which results in what is commonly called “hard water.” These minerals tend to adhere to
the insides of heater coils and other parts of the machines causing damage and a loss of
cleaning effectiveness. This inuences the reliability and efciency of equipment in direct
proportion to the level of hardness.
Hard Water Advisory
HydraMaster recognizes that any hard water deposits which might occur within the water
system of our truckmounts is a serious problem. The precision technology of truckmount
heat exchanger systems is intolerant of any foreign material. Hard water deposits will
ultimately decrease the performance of the system and are expected to seriously lower
the reliability of the machine.
To validate a machine’s warranty, HydraMaster requires that all machines operating in
designated “Hard Water Areas” (3.0 grains or more per gallon [3.79 litres]) be tted with
a water softening system, or a properly installed magnetic-type descaler must be used
and maintained. Periodic descaling or acid-rinsing alone is not adequate in these areas.
HydraMaster does not recommend any particular type or brand; however, the relative
effectiveness of some types of magnetic descalers or softeners may require additional
periodic use of descaling agents.
HydraMaster also recommends, in the strongest possible terms, that machines in all areas
be tted with a water softening system for improved operation and reliability.
Failure to take appropriate measures to prevent scale build up can result in
system failure and loss of warranty on affected parts.
