Unpacking
Your Elliott Roto-Jet II® is shipped in a well-packed carton with the electric supply cord attached and
the foot pedal detached. Upon receiving your new machine, inspect the unit for damage. If damage is
discovered notify Elliott and the carrier. DO NOT discard the carton or any packaging. Inspectors will
need to examine both the carton and the contents.
Connecting Instructions (See diagrams on pages 13 & 15)
1. Uncoil the air tubes that are attached to the foot pedal and insert the air tube into the air
port. In the case of a reversing unit, attach the tube of the “right” foot pedal to the “right”
barbed air port on the machine and the tube of the “left” foot pedal to the “left” barbed air
port.
2. Uncoil the flexible shaft. Never operate a flexible shaft that is coiled. Install the drive
coupling onto the flexible shaft. (See diagram 1) Remove the protective cap from the
manifold. Make certain the o-ring is properly installed in the groove of the manifold. Insert
the drive coupling into the drive socket inside the manifold, tighten the manifold cap onto
the manifold. Firm hand tightening will be sufficient.
3. Connect a standard garden hose to the water inlet on the front of the machine. Make sure
the filtered washer is properly installed prior to connecting the water hose. The water
supply may be turned on at any time after connection is made, water will not flow through
the manifold until the flexible cable is activated.
4. Select and install the appropriate cleaning attachment to the tool coupling of the flexible
shaft.
5. Uncoil the power cord and plug the GFI plug into a properly wired, grounded outlet.
6. Move the power switch located on the opposite end of the unit to the “ON” position.
Depress the foot pedal to test the operation of the flexible shaft.
NOTE: Once the flexible shaft is activated water will begin to flow through the shaft
casing and exit at the tool end. Make certain that no water is leaking from the manifold
connection or from inside the machine.
Your Elliott Roto-Jet II® is now ready to brush tubes clean.
