WATER SUPPLY:
PRESSURIZED SUPPLY:
1. Select a water supply hose which is a quality grade of garden hose measuring at least ¾" ID and no longer than
50 feet.
2. Ensure the water strainer is clean and free of obstructions. If water flow becomes restricted to the pump, cavitation
can occur which will cause premature failure of the pump packings.
3. Connect one end of the water supply hose to the swivel with filter inlet and connect the other end to the pressurized
water supply.
NOTE: If there is a high mineral content in your water, it is recommended that a water softener be used to prevent the
possibility of excessive scale buildup inside the heat exchanger coil.
4. Follow the incoming water requirements listed below:
a. Water pressure must be between a minimum of 40 PSI and a maximum of 65 PSI.
b. Incoming GPM must be approximately one gallon more per minute than the outgoing GPM stated on the machine
nameplate. (You can check the GPM of yoursource by timing the filling of a 5 gallon container.)
c. Incoming water temperature must not exceed 125°F. Excessive pump damage may result if the water temperature
exceeds this level.
5. Never allow the unit to operate without the incoming water line attached and the water supply completely turned
on.
UNLOADER:
The unloader has been preset at the factory.
PRE-START INSPECTION PROCEDURES:
Before starting the unit, perform the following procedures:
1. Check the oil level in the pump.
2. Inspect the water inlet strainer. Clean or replace if necessary. See "Water Supply".
3. Check all hose connections to ensure they are securely tightened.
4. Inspect for system water leaks, oil leaks and fuel leaks. If a fuel leak is found, DO NOT START UNIT! See "Risk of
Explosion or Fire" warnings. Be sure that all damaged parts are replaced and that the mechanical problems are
corrected prior to operation of the unit. If you require service, contact Customer Service.
5. Inspect high pressure hoses for kinking, cuts and leaks. If a cut or leak is found, DO NOT USE HOSE! Replace
hose before starting unit. See "Risk of Injection" warnings.
6.
Be sure that all damaged parts are replaced and that the mechanical problems are corrected prior to operation of
the unit. If you require service, contact Customer Service.
