Machine Inspection
WARNING
To prevent serious injury, inspect your Jetter. The
following inspection procedures should be per-
formed on a daily basis.
1. Check engine crankcase and pump oil level. If low,
add oil (see enclosed Engine Owner’s Manual for de-
tails). Also check pump and gear box oil level and add
oil if low.
2. Check engine fuel level. If low, add unleaded gasoline
with a pump octane rating of 86 or higher. (See en-
closed Engine Owner’s Manual for details).
Use caution when handling gasoline. Re-
fuel in well-ventilated area. Do not over-fill fuel tank and do
not spill fuel. Make sure tank cap is closed properly.
3. Inspect the Jetter for any broken, missing, misaligned
or binding parts as well as any other conditions which
may affect the safe and normal operation of the ma-
chine. If any of these conditions are present, do not
use the Jetter until any problem has been repaired.
4. Check inlet filter screen for debris that can restrict
water flow into the pump resulting in poor perfor-
mance. If filter screen is dirty or clogged, remove,
clean and replace.
5. Use accessories that are designed for your Jetter
and meet the needs of your application. The correct
accessories allow you to do the job successfully and
safely. Accessories suitable for use with other equip-
ment may be hazardous when used with this machine.
6. Clean any oil, grease or dirt from all equipment han-
dles and controls. This reduces the risk of injury due
to a tool or control slipping from your grip.
7. Check the jetter nozzle orifices for debris. If an orifice
is blocked, use nozzle cleaning tool to clear and re-
move debris.
8. Inspect hoses for wear and damage. Hoses should be
replaced when they become damaged.
Damaged hoses can burst causing seri-
ous injury. Inspect hoses and pressure components for
pressure ratings. Do not use components rated for less
than 3000 psi.
Ridge Tool Company 5
Install positive battery cable before negative.
4. Make certain insulator boots are slipped over ends of
cables.
5. Connect the positive (red) battery cable to the positive
(+) terminal on the battery. Tighten securely with 5/16″
wrench.
6. After positive (red) cable is securely attached, connect
negative (black) battery cable to the negative (-) ter-
minal on the battery.
7. Coat the terminals and cable ends with grease and in-
stall rubber insulator boots over the terminal ends.
Instructions for Engine and Pump
1. Engine is shipped without oil. Fill with oil prior to start-
ing engine (see enclosed Engine Owner’s Manual for
details).
Failure to fill engine with oil will result in
engine failure.
2. Remove plug in pump and replace with dipstick/
breather cap. Check the pump oil level (jetter is
shipped with oil). If oil is low, fill with SAE 30W de-
tergent oil.
3. Remove the plug in gear box and replace with dipstick
/breather cap. Check the gear box oil level. If low, fill
with 90W gear lube (gear box is shipped with oil).
NOTE! In order to access gas cap and air filter, dis-
connect the hose reel latch and rotate the hose
reel forward until it rests on the front cross bar
(Figure 3).

Machine and Work Area Set-Up
WARNING
To prevent serious injury, proper set-up of the
machine and work area is required. The following
procedures should be followed to set-up the ma-
chine:
1. Check work area for:
•Adequate lighting.
•Flammable liquids, vapors or dust that may ignite.
•Adequate ventilation for engine exhaust.
Exhaust contains poisonous carbon mon-
oxide gas. Exposure may cause loss of consciousness
and may lead to death.
•Water supply
NOTE! If a connection is made to a potable water sys-
tem, the system should be protected against
backflow in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
2. Connect the quick coupling fitting to the water supply
hose. Connect water supply hose to the jetter inlet
and close the inlet supply valve (Figure 4).
Figure 4 – Connect water supply hose to jetter. Close
inlet supply valve (shown in CLOSED position)
3. Connect the other end of the water supply hose to the
water faucet and turn the faucet ON. Make sure
there are no kinks or unnecessary bends in the sup-
ply hose.
Hot water improves the jetter’s performance,
particularly when clearing grease blockages. Limit water
temperature to below 140°F.
4. Make sure the hose reel’s connection hose is at-
tached to the jetter’s outlet quick coupling (Figure 2).
•If a separate hose reel is used, attach hose to jet-
ter’s outlet quick coupling as shown in Figure 2.
•If necessary, use trap hose. (Refer to Jetter Hose
Selection Chart).
5. Insert jetter hose 6″–8″into drain without a jetter
nozzle.
6. Open the inlet supply valve and run water through the
jetter and hoses.
7. Continue to run water through the jetter until all air has
been purged.
8. Close the inlet supply valve.
9. Attach a jetter nozzle to the jet hose. (Refer to Jetter
Nozzle Selection Chart). Hand-tighten for a snug fit.
Over-tightening can interfere with water flow through
the nozzle orifices causing reduced flow and poor per-
formance.
Nozzle should not be removed from the
drain while pressurized. Conspicuously mark the hose at
a distance of 24″(60 cm) from nozzle to indicate the lo-
cation of the nozzle.
10. Insert the jet hose into the line several feet.
11. Open the inlet supply valve and verify that water
flows freely through the nozzle by pulling jetter hose
back towards inlet slowly.

•Turn the key to the START position to start engine.
Release key after the engine is started.
NOTE! Electric start engines can also be started manu-
ally: make sure the ignition key is turned to the ON
position. Pull the starter grip lightly until resis-
tance is felt, then pull briskly.
6. As the engine warms up, gradually move the choke
lever to the OPEN position and adjust the throttle
lever for the desired engine speed.
NOTE! For further details on engine operation, see the
enclosed Engine Owner’s Manual.
7. Insert the jetter hose several feet into the drain and ad-
just the unloading valve to the desired pressure, up to
3000 PSI maximum (rotate clockwise to increase
pressure) (Figure 6).
Do not operate above 3000 PSI or 140°F
water temperature. Do not operate with nozzle outside of
drain.
Figure 6 – Adjusting the Unloading Valve
8. If the jetter will not generate 3000 PSI:
•Make sure the engine throttle is adjusted properly.
•Make sure the water faucet is completely OPEN
and the inlet supply valve is OPEN.
•Check the filter screen at the inlet port to the jetter.
Make certain it is clear of debris.
•Check inlet line strainer. Make certain it is clear of de-
bris by removing bottom bowl and cleaning screen.
•Make sure the pulse actuator is in the OFF posi-
tion.
•Cycle the pulse actuator ON and OFF several times
while the jetter is running to clear any trapped air in
the system.
•Rotate unloader valve clockwise to make sure it in-
creases pressure.
Normal Jetting
1. For normal jetting, turn the pulse actuator to the OFF
position and guide the hose into the line by hand. The
thrust created by the nozzle will propel the hose down
the line.
2. When the jetter nozzle encounters a bend, its ad-
vance will usually slow or stop. The jetter hose has a
slight bend or set to it. The reverse thrust of the noz-
zle will advance the jetter hose, but it is also necessary
to manually feed and rotate the jetter hose to work the
set around the bend.
3. If the hose will not advance, pull back on the hose
slightly and rotate the hose a quarter to a half turn so
the set will align itself with the bend. Then advance the
hose forward.
Using The Pulse Mode To Negotiate
Bends And Traps
In some cases, simply rotating the hose will not be enough
to negotiate a bend or trap. In these instances, it will be
necessary to induce some pulse action. In the pulse
mode, the pump induces large pulsation and jetter hose vi-
bration which will ease hose advancement.
1. Rotate the pulse actuator lever clockwise to induce the
pulse (Figure 7).
2. While in the pulse mode, again rotate the hose to align
the set with the bend. This technique will normally
overcome stubborn bends and traps.
NOTE! In the pulse mode, the jetter’s pressure gauge
will read approximately 2000 –2200 PSI.
Figure 7 – Pulse Actuator ON
3. Once through the bend or trap, return the pulse con-
trol actuator lever to the OFF position. Continue the
jetter head’s advance.
NOTE! Leaving the jetter in the pulse mode for an ex-
tended period of time can cause premature wear
on hoses and system.
KJ-3000 Water Jetter Machine
WARNING

Ridge Tool Company 9
Encountering Blockages
1. If the jetter nozzle does not pass right through the
blockage, combine the pulse action of the pump with
manual manipulation of the hose.
2. Once through the obstruction, pass the jetter nozzle
back and forth several times (preferably with pulse
OFF) through that section of the drain to ensure thor-
ough clearing. Then advance the nozzle several feet
further down the line before retrieving the hose.
3. Know the approximate total distance of the drain you
are jetting and use enough jetter hose to clean the
complete line.
“Jet Cleaning” or “Jetting” the Line
The jetter’s cleaning action occurs by the nozzle orifices di-
recting high pressure water at the walls of the drain line
restoring the drain to the full inside line diameter. (This
same pressure produces the thrust that pushes the nozzle
down the line.) The slower the jetter hose is retrieved, the
better the results.
1. Make sure the pulse actuator is OFF. This will maxi-
mize the pressure and flow at the nozzle.
2. Slowly retrieve the jetter hose and clean the inside
walls of the drain.
3. Retrieve the jet hose about one to two feet at a time.
Several passes back and forth with each pull will as-
sure a properly cleaned drain.
Never permit end of hose to rotate out of
the pipe being cleaned. Hose can whip and nozzle spray
can penetrate skin causing serious injury.
NOTE! If at any time during the jetting process the pres-
sure oscillates up and down between 500 and
3000 psi, stop the jetter:
•Turn the jetter and water supply OFF. Remove
the jetter nozzle and check the nozzle orifices.
(They are probably blocked). Clean them with the
nozzle cleaning tool by pushing the proper size
wire completely through each thruster orifice.
•If the problem persists, remove the nozzle and
insert the hose into the drain. Check the inlet fil-
ter screen at the inlet port and make sure it is
clean. Restart to flush the system of any trapped
air or debris that could be hampering the unit’s
operation.
Indoor Applications
The KJ-3000 can be used for indoor or remote applica-
tions where the operator must be away from the unit.
NOTE! For safety reasons and to ease operation, oper-
ator should have an assistant stationed at jetter at
all times.
1. Position the jetter in the appropriate outdoor location.
2. Disconnect the hose reel connection hose from the jet-
ter quick connect and remove the entire hose reel.
3. Move the hose reel and the foot valve to the indoor or
remote drain access area. Connect the hose reel
connection hose to the foot valve quick connect
marked OUT.
4. Attach the 50′interconnect hose (or any other hose
rated for at least 3000 PSI) to the jetter quick connect
(as shown in Figure 2) and connect the other end to
the foot valve fitting marked IN (Figure 8). Use thread

Lubrication
Before each use:
•Check engine crankcase oil level. If low, add SAE
10-W-30 detergent oil.
•Check the oil level in the jetter pump. If it is low, fill
with SAE 30W detergent oil. The pump manufac-
turer recommends an oil change after 40 hours of
break-in operation and every 500 hours thereafter.
•Check the oil level in the gear box. If oil level is low,
fill with 90W gear lube.
Inlet Line and Filter Screen
Before each use:
•Check inlet line strainer inlet filter screen for debris
that can restrict water flow into the pump resulting in
poor performance. If filter screen is dirty or clogged,
remove, clean and replace.
Jetter Nozzles
Before each use:
•Check the jetter nozzle orifices for debris. If an ori-
fice is blocked, use nozzle cleaning tool to clear and
remove debris.
•If using the Root Ranger Nozzle, remove turbine
barrel to clean debris. Ensure that outlet is not
damaged or obstructed. Replace ceramic insert if
damaged or severely worn.
Jetter Flushing
After use:
•Run clear water through the jetter and hose(s) in
order to flush out debris or detergent. Make sure
nozzle is removed from hose for maximum water
flow. Flushing should always be done after using the
injector in order to flush out detergents.
Winterizing
Freezing temperatures can cause serious
damage to the pump. If such cold conditions are to be en-
countered in storage, charge the jetter with RV (non-ethy-
lene glycol) Anti-Freeze.
The winterizing kit (H-25) includes RV Anti-Freeze and a
delivery hose that attaches to the inlet valve.
EPA mandates that no substances con-
taining ethylene glycol can be used in a drainage system.
Machine Storage
Gasoline engine-driven equipment should
be kept indoors or well covered in rainy weather. Store the
machine in a locked area that is out of reach of children
and people unfamiliar with drain cleaners. This machine
can cause serious injury in the hands of untrained users.

•Utilisez les dispositifs de sécurité appropriés.
Portez des lunettes de sécurité systématiquement.
Un masque àpoussière, des chaussures de sécurité,
le casque et/ou une protection auditive doivent être
portés selon les conditions d’utilisation.
Utilisation et entretien de l’appareil
•Ne forcez pas l’appareil. Utilisez l’appareil prévu
pour l’application en question. L’outil appropriéas-
surera un meilleur travail et une meilleure sécurités’il
est utiliséau régime prévu.
•Lorsque vous ne vous en servez pas, rangez les
appareils hors de la portée des enfants et des
novices. Ces appareils peuvent être dangereux dans
les mains d’un novice.
•Entretenez vos outils consciencieusement. As-
surez-vous du bon fonctionnement des clapets,
des flexibles et des buses. Les outils bien entretenus
sont moins susceptibles de défaillir et de provoquer
des blessures corporelles.
•Assurez-vous qu’il n’y a pas de mauvais aligne-
ment ou de grippage des pièces rotatives, ou d’au-
tres conditions qui pourraient entraver le bon fonc-
tionnement de l’appareil. Le cas échéant, faites
réparer l’appareil avant de vous en servir. De nom-
breux accidents sont le résultat d’un appareil mal
entretenu.

Sécurité du dégorgeoir a pression
•N’utilisez pas cet appareil à une pression supé-
rieure à 3000 psi ou à une température d’eau
supérieure à 140°F. L’appareil sera plus efficace et
moins dangereux lorsqu’il est utiliséàla pression et
température d’eau prévues.
•Ne laissez jamais l’extrémité du flexible tourner à
l’extérieur de la canalisation. Le flexible risque de fou-
etter dangereusement, et l’eau sous pression émise par
la buse est capable de pénétrer la peau et provoquer
de graves lésions.
•Prenez les précautions nécessaires lors de la ma-
nipulation de l’essence. Faites le plein dans un
endroit bien ventilé. Ne remplissez pas trop le
réservoir et évitez le déversement de l’essence.
Assurez-vous que le capuchon du réservoir est
correctement fermé. L’essence est très inflammable et
peut même devenir volatile sous certaines conditions.
•Ne jamais faire tourner le moteur dans un endroit
clos ou restreint. Les gaz d’échappement contiennent
du monoxyde de carbone ; toute exposition risque
d’entraîner une perte de connaissance et peut même
entraîner la mort. Les gaz d’échappement contien-
nent également des produits chimiques qui, selon
l’état de la Californie, peuvent être cancérigène ou
endommager le système reproductif.
•Ne touchez pas le pot d’échappement tant qu’il
est chaud. Afin d’éviter les risques de brûlures
graves, laissez refroidir le moteur avant de trans-
porter ou de ranger l’appareil à l’intérieur. Le pot
d’échappement devient brûlant durant le fonction-
nement de l’appareil et reste brûlant pendant un certain
temps après l’arrêt du moteur.
•N’orientez pas le jet d’eau en direction d’autrui.
Sa pression élevée peut occasionner de graves
blessures. Si le liquide semble avoir pénétréla peau,
consultez un médecin immédiatement.
•Faites particulièrement attention lors du curage
d’une canalisation qui a été préalablement traitée
aux produits chimiques. Evitez tout contact direct
avec la peau ou les yeux. Certains produits de net-
toyage peuvent provoquer de graves brûlures.
•Ce dégorgeoir est prévu pour le curage des canal-
isations d’évacuation. Respectez les instructions
du mode d’emploi. Toute autre utilisation risque d’être
dangereuse.
•Ne pulvérisez pas de liquides inflammables. La
pulvérisation de liquides inflammables risque de provo-
quer un incendie ou une explosion.
•Ne pulvérisez pas de produits toxiques tels que les
insecticides ou les désherbants. Ce type de produit
peut être dangereux.
•Ne jamais tenter de laver la machine à l’aide de son
propre jet. La pression élevée de la machine risque
d’endommager ses composants.
•Gardez les étincelles, les flammes ouvertes et les
cigarettes loin de la batterie. Prévoyez une venti-
lation adéquate lors du rechargement de la batterie.
La batterie émet des gaz explosifs.
•La batterie contient de l’acide sulfurique (l’élec-
trolyte). Evitez tout contact avec la peau ou les yeux.
Cet acide peut provoquer de graves brûlures.
