WARNINGS, CAUTIONS AND NOTICES
HydraMaster uses this WARNING symbol throughout the manual to warn of
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.

1-5: General Information
Warnings and Cautions specic to the TMTG 4000 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. 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 other than the gas
tank included as part of the TMTG 4000. Serious injury or death may result.
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.

General Information: 1-6
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.
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.
Never operate the truckmount with the vehicle doors closed. Doing so results in
extremely high temperatures inside the vehicle and will lead to serious component
or engine damage.
Never use concentrated acids or solvents (including d-limonene) in the truckmount
water system or chemical system. Use of these products will cause serious
component damage.
Never operate the truckmount with a water hardness reading measuring 3.0 grains
per gallon or higher. Using reading than 3.0 grains per gallon will cause scale
to build up inside the truckmount water system. Scale build up causes serious
component damage. Test all water prior to use and use water softening equipment
if necessary.

1-7: General Information
Never allow water to freeze inside the truckmount. Serious component damage
will occur. Perform all freeze guarding procedures outlined in this digital Owner’s
Manual.
Many vehicles have critical components mounted directly below the oor that can
easily be damaged. Before drilling holes in the oor of the vehicle inspect the
underside of the vehicle for critical components. Failure to do so may result in
damage to the vehicle.
Use of the vacuum recovery system when stripping or otherwise removing wax
from oors is specically excluded as an approved use of the truckmount. Failure
to follow this exclusion may lead to component failure and will invalidate your
warranty.
Use of the vacuum recovery system for “dry cleaning”, without corresponding
solution application (i.e. duct cleaning), is specically excluded as an approved
use of the truckmount. Failure to follow this exclusion may lead to component
failure and will invalidate your warranty.
If concentrated acids or solvents are used to pre-treat surfaces before power
washing, do not recover them through the vacuum system. Failure to follow this
exclusion may lead to component failure and will invalidate your warranty.

SYSTEM CONCEPT
The system utilizes an internal combustion engine to provide the power necessary to
turn both a vacuum pump and a high pressure water pump.
The heat of the engine and blower exhausts is transferred to the high pressure water in
the nned tube heat exchanger of the system.
Finally, the chemical is injected into the pressurized water stream and the heated solu-
tionis delivered to the cleaning tool. The solution is recovered by the vacuum generated
by the vacuum pump This solution is collected in the recovery tank for proper disposal.
Features
• TMTG is not limited to water extraction like other mobile systems. It provides deep
cleaning and water extraction capabilities. Most restoration job sites require compre-
hensive deep cleaning needs after the ood waters have been extracted
• Proven power, vacuum, and cleaning solution delivery platform used on HydraMas-
ters most popular slide-in mounted truckmount systems
• Sturdy platform with forklift guides for exible application
• Store and ship in container or pod for quick delivery. Lightweight enough the unit can
be permanently mounted on an industrial cart for easy transport through college and
industrial campuses, amusement parks, golf courses and resorts.
The HydraMaster Truckmount to Go is a mobile, high performance cleaning and extrac-
tion system designed for restoration and cleaning contractors, facility managers, and
disaster emergency response teams who need an easy to operate and easy to transport
unit. It can be directly delivered to the job site for immediate and on-going deep cleaning
and extraction of carpets, upholstery, hard surface oors, sidewalk, porch and entry way
cleaning; water and ood extraction, and pressure washing where immediate collection
of cleaning solutions and soiling are benecial.
The complete self-contained, turn-key system can be transported via atbed or pick-up
truck, van, trailer, or even an industrial cart that is rated for a ¾ to 1 ton capacity. As the
unit provides its own power, no electricity is needed. The complete system includes: a
wastewater recovery tank; high capacity automatic wastewater disposal system (for
pumping wastewater to an on-location sanitary sewage access point); fuel tank; vacuum
hoses on hangers and garden and solution hoses mounted on a high capacity hose
reel; and a cleaning and extraction wand. In addition, the TMTG uses a state-of-the-art
heat exchange system to heat the cleaning solution, eliminating the need for a second
fuel source required for hot water pressure washers.

General Information: 1-12
The TMTG does not require the contractor or facility to permanently tie up a vehicle.
The unit is simply forklifted into the transport vehicle for delivery to the job site, or
shipped by container or crate to the work site.
HydraMaster is one of the largest manufacturers of truck mounted and high perfor-
mance portable cleaning and extraction machines. For over 48 years, HydraMaster has
innovated uncompromising deep cleaning, extraction and drying solutions.

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.

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 e󰀨ectiveness. This inuences the reliability and e󰀩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 liters]) 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
e󰀨ectiveness 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 a󰀨ected parts.
