• Never leave wash down station unattended without
releasing pressure.
• Never use foreign means to hold trigger in open position.
• Never over tighten connections/threads. Use appropriate
size wrench for tightening connections/threads. Never use
wrench extensions of any type.
BEFORE
nozzle spraying and during
nozzle spraying
ALWAYS
• Hold nozzle firmly before pulling trigger.
• Adopt a proper body stance to anticipate high recoil force by
spray nozzle.
• Exercise care and caution when spraying.
• When spraying hot liquids avoid hand or body contact with
non-insulated parts of the nozzle.
• Wear protective clothing including heavy- duty insulated
gloves, boots, aprons and safety glasses.
• Stop spraying before becoming fatigued.
BEFORE removing nozzle — OR —
attempting service
ALWAYS
• Shut off water supplies.
• Discharge contents of hose and nozzle to eliminate
pressure.
• Do not operate the equipment if there are any leaks from spray nozzle, fittings, or hoses. High pressure leaks can
penetrate the skin causing serious injury.

PRE-INSTALLATION:
1. Unit is rated for water pressures up to 150 PSI. Pressure gauge installation (upstream, prior to water
inlet) is recommended to determine proper and constant water pressure during all operation of
mixing unit.
2. Strainer is highly recommended (upstream, prior to both inlets) to prevent damage from debris.
3. Both water supply lines should be thoroughly flushed prior to installation to rid lines of foreign
debris which can affect the performance of the mixing unit.
4. Check to make sure that both globe valves or ball valves are fully closed by turning hand-wheels or
handle clockwise until it stops.
5. Mixing unit is ready to install.
INSTALLATION:
1. Place the mounting plate on the wall and mark the 4 holes to be used to mount the plate to the wall.
2. Drill 12mm or equivalent holes on wall and install anchor bolts (supplied). Make sure that holes are
deep enough to accommodate anchor bolts so that they do not stick out too much and interfere with
the mounting of the mixing unit.
3. Mount plate to wall and mount using anchor bolt nuts (supplied).
4. Mount mixing unit to plate and loosely secure with top bolt (supplied).
5. Mount hose rack to mixing unit and secure with 2 bottom bolts (supplied).
6. Secure unit to mounting plate by tightening all 3 supporting bolts.
7. If temperature gauge was supplied, remove front plug and install temperature gauge. (Pipe thread
sealant or alternative such as Teflon tape is recommended on temperature gauge thread)
8. The mixing unit is now ready for piping.
9. Install water supply lines to mixing unit inlets. (Pipe thread sealant or alternative such as Teflon tape
is recommended on piping thread)
10. Attach hose to ¾” NPT outlet of mixing unit. (Pipe thread sealant or alternative such as Teflon tape
is recommended on fitting thread)
11. Attach spray nozzle to the other end of the hose. (Pipe thread sealant or alternative such as Teflon
tape is recommended on fitting thread)
12. Check and make sure that hot & cold water supply globe valves or ball valves are turned off.
13. Gradually open cold water globe valve or ball valve to pressurize mixing station and check for leaks.
If there are visible leaks, immediately turn globe valve or ball valve off, depressurize mixing unit by
spraying nozzle. Disassemble and reseal leakage points. Once complete, reassemble and restart
procedure to check for leaks. If no more leaks, continue. If leaks, repeat procedure.
14. Gradually open hot water globe valve or ball valve to pressurize mixing station and check for leaks.
If there are visible leaks, immediately turn globe valve or ball valve off, depressurize mixing unit by
spraying nozzle, allow mixing unit to cool down prior to disassembly, and reseal leakage points.
Once complete, reassemble and restart procedure to check for leaks. If no more leaks, continue. If
leaks, repeat procedure.
15. With both globe valves or ball valves fully open, unit is ready.

REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS:
CAUTION: Check and make sure that hot & cold water supply globe valves or ball valves are turned
off prior to disassembly. Depressurize mixing unit by spraying nozzle and allow mixing unit to cool
down prior to disassembly. Unit is now ready for maintenance.
Check Valve Replacement (For Globe Valve Units Only):
1. Remove check valve connection nut.
2. Remove check valve from globe valve.
3. Reverse instructions to install new check valve.
Globe Valve Stem Guide Filling & Poppet (For Globe Valve Units Only):
1. Remove globe valve stem nut using crescent wrench or box end wrench by turning it counter-
clockwise. Once completely loosened, entire stem will simply fall off along with globe valve poppet
and stem nut gasket. Please note that globe valve poppet is “free floating” and thus will simply fall
off its guide.
2. Remove hand wheel nut, lock washer, and name plate from globe valve hand wheel.
3. Gently tap hand wheel outward and then wiggle off by hand.
4. On globe valve, remove push down cap and push down sleeve from stem guide and Teflon stem
guide filling will be visible.
5. Turn hand wheel stem guide clockwise until it can be extracted through the inside.
6. Using a pick or equivalent, remove as much packing material as possible from the inside of the globe
valve.
7. Reinsert the hand wheel stem by turning it counter-clockwise.
8. Insert new Teflon filling into stem.
9. Insert push down nut into stem and begin to tighten. Please only hand tighten at this moment.
10. Insert new globe valve poppet and gasket on globe valve stem.
11. Reverse instructions to reassemble.
12. Once reassembled and reinstalled onto unit, operate unit as usual, if there is minimal leakage through
stem packing, tighten push down nut slowly until leakage disappears.

Frequently asked questions:
Question:
Answer:
Is a strainer required at both inlets of the mixing unit
to prevent debris from entering the unit?
SuperKlean recommends the use of strainers at the
inlets simply because they prevent debris entering
the unit. Debris affects the operation and can
potentially damage the unit. It is recommended that
all inlet supply lines are thoroughly flushed prior to
installation to rid them of debris.
What is the output pressure of the mixing unit?
Output pressure is very similar to input water
pressure.
