IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When using this machine, basic precautions
must always be followed, including the following:
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS MACHINE.
Read the operator's manual before installing or starting this unit. Failure to adhere to instructions
could result in severe personal injury or could be fatal.
Operate this unit and equipment only in a well-ventilated area. Exhaust fumes contain carbon
monoxide which is an odorless and deadly poison that can cause severe injury or fatality. DO NOT run
this unit in an enclosed area. DO NOT operate this unit where the exhaust may enter any building
doorway, window, vent, or opening of any type.
Gasoline is extremely flammable and its vapors can explode if ignited. Store gasoline only in
approved containers, in well-ventilated, unoccupied buildings away from sparks or flames. Never carry
any gasoline or flammable material in the vehicle. Fumes may accumulate inside the vehicle and ignite,
causing an explosion.
DO NOT store any type of flammable material in the vehicle.
This unit must be operated with the vehicle or trailer doors open in order to ensure adequate
engine ventilation.
DO NOT operate engine if gasoline is spilled. Avoid creating any ignition until the gasoline has been
cleaned up. Never use gasoline as a cleaning agent.
DO NOT place hands, feet, hair, or clothing near rotating or moving parts. Avoid any contact with
moving parts! Rotating machinery can cause injury or fatality.
Never operate this unit without belt guards. The high speed moving parts, such as belts and pulleys,
should be avoided while this unit is running. Severe injury, damage, or fatality may result.
DO NOT service this unit while it is running. The high-speed mechanical parts as well as high
temperature components may result in severe injury or severed limbs.
Never touch electrical wires or components while the engine is running. They can be sources of
electrical shock.
Engine components can get extremely hot from operation. To prevent severe burns, DO NOT touch
these areas while the engine is running - or immediately after the engine is turned off.
DO NOT touch the exhaust system while this unit is running. Severe burns may result.
Before servicing this unit, allow it to "cool down." This will prevent burns from occurring.
Water under high pressure at high temperature can cause burns, severe personal injury, or
fatality. Shut down machine, allow to cool down, and relieve system of all pressure before
removing valves, caps, plugs, fittings, filters, and bolts.
These symbols mean WARNING or CAUTION. Failure to follow warnings and
cautions could result in fatality, personal injury to yourself and/or others, or
property damage. Follow these instructions carefully!

EVEREST 980086 05/19/04 2-2
DO NOT leave the vehicle engine running while operating this unit.
Dangerous Acid, Explosive Gases! Batteries contain sulfuric acid. To prevent acid burns, avoid contact with
skin, eyes and clothing. Batteries produce explosive hydrogen gas while being charged. To prevent a fire or
explosion, charge batteries only in well ventilated areas. Keep sparks, open flames, and other sources of ignition
away from the battery at all times. Keep batteries out of the reach of children. Remove all jewelry when servicing
batteries.
Before disconnecting the negative (-) ground cable, make sure all switches are OFF. If ON, a spark will occur at
the ground cable terminal which could cause an explosion if hydrogen gas or gasoline vapors are present. When
disconnecting the battery, ALWAYS disconnect the negative (-) terminal FIRST.
DO NOT smoke around the unit. Gas fumes may accumulate and be ignited. The battery is also extremely
flammable. This will prevent possible explosions.
DO NOT damage the vehicle in any manner during installation. When routing fuel lines DO NOT place the
hose in any location where damage may occur to the hose or vehicle. Avoid any contact with moving parts, areas
of high temperature, brake lines, fuel lines, muffler, catalytic converter, or sharp objects.
DO NOT cut or splice any of the vehicle fuel lines during fuel line installation. This may result in fuel leaks
and potentially dangerous conditions. There is no fuel solenoid shut off on this unit. Use only the provided
abrasion resistant fuel hose for fuel lines. When traversing the vehicle floor with fuel lines, always use a bulkhead
adapter. This will prevent leakage and ensure that the hose is not punctured by vehicle vibration abrasion.
DO NOT exceed your vehicle's weight limit. The console with waste tank and accessories weighs
approximately 1840 lbs. Make certain to account for any additional accessories in your weight and balance
calculations. Make certain that the vehicle has the correct axle rating. This will prevent unsafe vehicle driving
conditions.
We require high-back seats on all vehicles in which units are to be installed for head and neck protection.

INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
DEALER RESPONSIBILITY
NOTE: Your distributor from whom you
purchased this mobile cleaning unit is
responsible for the correct installation of this
machine. The dealer is also responsible for
initial training of your operators and
maintenance personnel in the proper operation
and maintenance of this unit.
1. The unit should NOT be mounted in any motor
vehicle of less than 3/4 ton capacity.
The console with waste tank and accessories
must NOT exceed the vehicle's axle weight limit.
2. If mounting in a trailer, make certain that the
trailer is rated for the total weight of the UNIT
AND TRAILER. Electric or hydraulic brakes
should be provided, and a strict compliance with
any State and Federal vehicle laws must be
maintained.
3. The vehicle tires should have a load rating
above the combined vehicle and unit weight.
4. We do not recommend using flooring materials
that absorb water. This could result in rust and
corrosion of the vehicle floor.
5. Padding under rubber floor mats should be
removed before installing this unit.
6. We highly recommend using a drip tray under
the console (Part #790552).
7. If using a trailer, the console should be
positioned so that it balances properly with
respect to the axle. Ten percent (10%) of the
overall unit weight should be on the tongue.
Example: If loaded trailer weight is 2,000 lbs.,
tongue weight needs to be a minimum of
200 lbs. to tow properly.
FUEL REQUIREMENTS2. FUEL
REQUIREMENTS
Use unleaded gasoline ONLY. DO NOT use any
gasoline additives. We recommend the use of clean,
fresh, unleaded gasoline intended for automotive
use. High octane gasoline should NOT be used with
the engine on this unit.
ENGINE OIL REQUIREMENTS3OIL
REQUIREMENTS
Use high quality detergent oil of at least API
(American Petroleum Institute) service class SF or
SG. Select the viscosity based on the air
temperature at the time of operation as shown in the
following table. NOTE: Using less than service
class SF or SG oil or extending oil change intervals
longer than recommended can cause engine

20W-50.

OPERATIONS
EVEREST 980086 02/18/03 3-3
CHEMICAL REQUIREMENTS4.
C
This cleaning unit, due to its chemical injection pump
design, can be used with a variety of water-diluted
chemical compounds (either acidic or alkaline),
depending on the job to be done. However, to obtain
optimum results with this unit, we recommend using
the PROCHEM line of chemicals. For information on
using the cleaning compounds, refer to the
PROCHEM chemical manual.
WATER REQUIREMENTS
Hard water deposits will adversely affect the
plumbing and heat exchange systems on this unit.
The map below will give you an idea of where areas
of high water hardness may occur. However, any
water supply obtained from a well is almost always
hard water and a water softener will be needed to
protect your equipment.
NOTE: Equipment malfunction or component
failure caused by hard water scaling is NOT
covered under the warranty.
If you are operating this unit in an area where the unit
will be using water in which the hardness exceeds
3-1/2 grains, we highly recommend a suitable water
softener be installed. If using a water softener, it must
have a five (5) GPM (or greater) flow capacity without
any hose constrictions.
Using a water softener will reduce maintenance and
decrease down time caused by hard water scaling. It
will also allow cleaning chemicals to be more
effective in lower concentrations.
If you require a water softener, PROCHEM has a
model to meet your needs. Please contact your
nearest distributor for information, price, and
availability.

liquid chemical is being introduced in the water
system. The quantity can be increased by
turning the chemical flow knob counter
clockwise.
29. CHEMICAL PRIME CONTROL VALVE
This valve allows the chemical to circulate
through the chemical system with little or no
restriction. It also purges out air that may be
trapped in the lines and cavities of the chemical
pump. By turning the valve clockwise the
injection system is enabled.
30. CHEMICAL METERING VALVE
The chemical metering valve regulates the
amount of chemical that is injected into the
system. Clockwise rotation of the knob closes
the valve. Counter clockwise rotation opens the
valve, allowing more chemical to enter the
system.
31. FLOW SIMULATOR VALVE
This valve allows solution to move through the
machine and chemical to be injected simulating
the cleaning process. This allows the operator
to set the chemical flow level without connecting
tools to the machine. It is also useful in
troubleshooting. The valve is turned off by
rotating the knob clockwise and opened by
turning the knob counter clockwise.
32. PANEL LIGHT
This light is useful if the machine is used in a
poorly lit area or night use. It is helpful in
reading the instruments and gauges.

WATER PUMPING AND HEAT
TRANSFER SYSTEM
Cold water enters the console through the water
inlet. When the water box is full the valve will
automatically shut off.
Water then flows from the water box, through a
strainer, into the water pump where it is pumped to
the pressure regulator manifold where the pressure
regulator provides and maintains the desired
pressure setting.
The pressure regulator manifold includes a nitrogen
charged accumulator which helps reduce pressure
spikes from the pump.
A certain amount of water is by-passed from the
pressure regulator due to over pumping capacity of
the water pump. Water that is not called for in the
cleaning process is channeled through a heat
exchanger box into the first heater core from the
front of the unit. This bypass water may circulate
several times through the bypass heat exchanger
allowing the water to be pre-warmed.
The next stage of heating and water flow is to the
helicoil, when water is called for in the cleaning
process it flows to the helicoil under pressure. Heat
from the engine coolant is exchanged to the
cleaning solution through a series of spiraled copper
tubing. This allows the engine coolant to travel in a
counter rotating direction to the cleaning water
during the exchange process creating a very
efficient transfer of heat out of the engine and into
the cleaning solution.
The third stage of plumbing and heat exchange
takes place in the 2nd heater core located in the
heater box. This is the hottest point of the gases
coming from the vac pump and the engine. These
hot gases are forced through heater core #2 creating
the third stage of heat transfer to the cleaning
solution.
Finally, the hot solution passes to the outlet manifold
where cleaning chemicals are injected from the
chemical pulse pump. This manifold serves as a
temperature sensing point and a connecting point for
the high-pressure hoses. Also a check valve is
located in this outlet manifold prohibiting chemicals
from backing up into the system.
The cleaning solution then passes through high-
pressure hoses and is distributed by the cleaning
tool to a surface that is being cleaned, completing
the water pumping and heating cycle of the cleaning
unit.

CHEMICAL INJECTION SYSTEM
The chemical injection system is unique in that it
utilizes the pressure spikes generated by the high-
pressure water pump to move chemical into the
main pressure stream. The high pressure spikes
move the diaphragm in the chemical pulse pump
forcing small amounts of liquid chemical to be
moved in a single direction of flow with the aid of two
check valves.
The chemical is picked up from the container and
fed through the flow meter to the chemical pulse
pump where it is pressurized.
After reaching the chemical pulse pump the
chemicals can either go into a bypass loop to purge
air from the system. The chemical can then be
directed by the chemical selector valve to the
metering valve. The metering valve creates an
orifice allowing the correct amount of chemical to
enter the outlet manifold. The outlet manifold
assembly is complete with a check valve that will not
allow the chemicals to travel upstream into the
plumbing system of the unit.
The chemicals are then mixed with hot pressurized
water that make up a solution for cleaning
application.
