2 Installation
The K9000 Mini Dog Wash can be installed either indoor or outdoor.
2.1 Levelling and Positioning the K9000 Mini
The K9000 Mini needs to be placed in a level horizontal position to operate correctly.
There are 8 adjustable feet, place a level along the back of the K9000 Mini and adjust the
feet according to get the K9000 Mini Level, place the level along the top of the cabinet
running back to front to make sure it is not tilting forward or backwards.
There are 2 different types of adjustable feet, four* exposed that are adjusted by hand
turning the actual feet and four* inside the cabinet floor that have rubber grommet covers,
you will need to remove the rubber grommets and adjust these with a large flat head screw
driver.
*Note: depending on the model the number of adjustable feet numbers will vary. It will be
either 4 hand adjusted with 2 requiring a screw driver or 2 hand adjusted with 4 requiring a
screw driver.
ENSURE all doors open and close freely before securing the K9000 Mini!
Once the K9000 Mini is level, use the anchor screws supplied to bolt the K9000 Mini to the
floor/surface.
The picture left shows the
location and how to adjust the
feet within the cabinet.
Note: The hot water unit will
need to be moved forward to
allow access to the internal
feet adjusted with the large
flat head screw driver. It does
not need to be removed.

2.2 Connecting the Water Supply and Waste connection to the K9000 Mini.
Before connecting the K9000 Mini to water and waste ensure local regulations are
considered. Some sites may require an additional back flow prevention device. Local
regulations may also require sites to use copper pipes for waste.
2.2.1 Connecting the Water Supply
Flush the pipes prior to connecting to the K9000 Mini.
Maximum allowable inlet water pressure is 450kpa. (72 Psi / 0.5 Mpa)
The picture at left shows the hot and cold-water entry points for a K9000 Mini without an on-
board hot water unit. While the picture on the right shows the water entry point for a K9000
Mini with an on-board hot water unit.
Once connected the regulator can be adjusted to ensure the K9000 Mini has water pressure
of between 20 & 30 psi when the pressure gun is in use and between 40 & 50 psi when
pressure gun is not being utilised.
To verify the pressure when the gun is not being utilised you need to view the gauge at the
moment the pressure gun is turned off as it will give a true indication of the psi prior to
resetting to the hold psi of approximately 40.
 The psi verification can be done with the override key and a wash setting of stop or
with money/token and the rinse setting selected.
If adjustment required, you will need adjust the regulator. The regulator is adjusted using a
screw driver, where pressure needs to be increased turn the screw anticlockwise and to
decrease pressure turn in a clockwise direction.

2.2.3 Connecting the Waste
Connect the 50mm waste using the P-trap (supplied in the install kit)
The copper waste pipe connected to the hot water unit relief valves needs to be run into a
waste point or tundish (not supplied). The same waste point as the P-trap can be utilised.
Before connecting to the waste point or tundish ensure local regulations are
considered as some sites may require copper pipe.
If unsure with any of the above steps please phone [phone] for assistance.

4.1.2 Product Dosing Pump Factory Settings (Iwaki EJ Series Pumps)
Settings are guidelines/recommendations for Fido’s or other approved high-quality
concentrated products:
 Shampoo: 200 SPM*
 Condition rinse: 180 SPM*
*Note: Strokes Per Minute
To adjust settings, depress the up arrow* to the recommended SPM rate, as detailed above.
*Note: The pump must be in operation when making an adjustment. The arrow will only increase the
SPM, so to reduce the rate you must fully increase the rate to 360, release the Stroke Rate button and
repress it. This will reset the SPM to 1, you can then increase to the required SPM rate. Once the
required rate is reached press the start/stop button twice to save the required rate.

4.1.3 Bleeding Product Dosing Pumps (Iwaki - EJ Series Pumps)
The need to bleed product dosing pump will arise when products have run out or in some
case when products have been replaced and air has become trapped in the tube.
Bleeding procedure:
1. Select the product you wish to bleed by turning the rotary switch e.g.: shampoo
2. Release bleeder valve (item A below) by turning anti-clockwise as shown below; 3
turns maximum.
3. Once product reaches the clear waste tube (item B below) re-tighten the bleeder
valve by turning clock-wise;
4. After process is complete visually inspect the suction line for air pockets-if air pockets
are present repeat process.
NOTE: After pump has been bled, there will be a distinctive change in the sound of the pump
(pump will sound quieter).
If there are problems bleeding heavier concentrates rattle the suction line (item C
below), and/or squeeze it to assist with shifting the product up into the pump head.

Q: How do I check the current registration status of a chemical product?
A: Your supplier can check the registration status of chemicals, or you can access the
information on the database of all registered agricultural and veterinary products
in Australia from the Public Chemical Registration Information System – PUBCRIS,
accessed through the APVMA website.
Q: How do I know if a product has been registered?
A: The APVMA (known before March 2003 as the NRA) allocates a unique
registration number which is printed on the bottom of the product label. The
APVMA uses this approval number to verify the registration status of products. The
words "NRA Approval No." always appears in front of the number. The last four
digits tell you when the product was last assessed by the APVMA. However, some
older chemical products may not have an NRA number. In this case, ask your
supplier to check that the product you want is registered.
