INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
Prior to starting the installation, first read the
ENTIRE "Installation” section of this manual. Since
the cleaning unit (with empty waste tank and
accessories) weighs approximately 810 lbs.
(900 lbs. if mounted on water tank), consider the
following recommendations before installing this
unit.
1. The unit should NOT be mounted in any motor
vehicle of less than 1/2 ton capacity, or 3/4 ton
if equipped with one or more auxiliary fresh
water tanks.
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 galvanized drip
tray under the console (Part #86050370, PRV
NO. 56-501845, or Part #86050380, PRV NO.
56-501930 for units mounted on a water tank.)
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 (without accessories or water)
should be on the tongue.
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. These engines are NOT
designed to use E-85 or Flex Fuels.
ENGINE OIL REQUIREMENTS
Use high quality detergent 10W-30 oil of at least API
(American Petroleum Institute) service class SG,
SH, SJ or higher.
NOTE: Using a lower service class oil or extending
oil change intervals longer than recommended can
cause engine damage.
NOTE: Synthetic oils meeting the listed
classifications may be used with oil changes
performed at recommended intervals. However to
allow piston rings to properly seat, a new or rebuilt
engine should be operated for at least 50 hours
using standard petroleum based oil before switching
to synthetic oil.
ALTITUDE REQUIREMENTS
Engines perform differently with
increases/decreases in altitude. Be sure to check
engine speeds during initial installation. See engine
speeds in Technical Specifications section.
NOTE: To ensure correct engine operation at
altitudes above 1525 meters (5000 ft), it may
be necessary to have an authorized Kohler
dealer install a special high altitude jet kit in
the carburetor. If a high altitude kit has been
installed, the engine must be reconverted to
the original jet size, before it is operated at
lower altitudes, or overheating and engine
damage can result.

OPERATION
86313050 LEGEND GT 09/12/08 3-3
CHEMICAL REQUIREMENTS
The 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 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, your dealer has a
model to meet your needs. Please contact your
nearest distributor for information, price, and
availability.

airflow. This airflow is used to do the work
necessary for the extraction process. A vacuum
nozzle applied to the carpet surface removes
moisture, dirt and spent chemicals. These
elements are conveyed back to a separating
tank utilizing hoses and the force of air.
Particles of moisture and dirt are separated in
the vacuum tank using a series of changes in
direction and velocity. The air is then filtered
and rushes into the vacuum pump.
The vacuum pump also heats incoming air as it
is compressed. The hot discharged air is forced
down stream into a silencer for noise abatement.
Exiting the silencer, this hot air is forced through
the heat exchanger
The vacuum pump speed is factory set to
maximize vacuum pressure and provide
sustained system life. Do not alter the vacuum
speed outside the recommended range shown
in the Technical Specifications section.

WATER PUMPING AND HEAT
TRANSFER SYSTEM
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 flows from the water box, into the solution
pump where it is pumped to the pressure regulator
manifold which provides and maintains the desired
pressure setting.
The pressure regulator manifold includes a pulse
hose, which helps reduce pressure spikes from the
pump.
A certain amount of water is by-passed from the
pressure regulator due to an over pumping capacity
of the solution pump. Water that is not called for in
the cleaning process is channeled through the
copper bypass radiator core in the front of the heat
exchanger. This bypass water may circulate several
times through the bypass heat exchanger core
allowing the water to be pre-warmed.
The gases coming from the vacuum pump and the
engine are forced through heater cores #2 and #3
creating the hottest area of the heater box,
increasing the heat transfer to the circulating water.
The hot water passes to the solution outlet manifold
where cleaning chemicals are injected from the
chemical pulse pump. This manifold serves as 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
HEAT EXCHANGER
The water temperature in the plumbing system is
raised for better cleaning. This happens in the heat
exchanger. The heat exchanger is made up of three
stages. These three stages are engine exhaust
stage, the mixing stage, and the pre-warming stage.
The angled rear heat exchanger core receives its
heat only from the engine exhaust gases. This core
becomes extremely hot and should not be touched
while the machine is in operation. Allow the machine
to cool down completely before attempting to service
this area.
The second core receives its heat from the mixing of
both the engine exhaust and the vacuum pump
exhaust. The vacuum pump heats incoming air as it
is compressed. This hot air is mixed with the hot
engine exhaust gases exiting the first core. This
mixture of hot air and gases is then forced through
the middle core and on through the front heat
exchanger core.
The third core continues to extract heat from the
mixed gases; but, this heat is used to pre-heat the
water box as a preliminary hot water reservoir.

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 sucked up from the container and
fed through the flow meter to the chemical pulse
pump where it is pressurized.
After being pressurized by the chemical pulse pump
the chemicals are the fed to the control valve which
directs the chemical either into a bypass loop to
purge air from the system or in to the solution
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 the chosen
cleaning application.
