Operation

Pressure Relief Procedure

Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure whenever 
you see this symbol.

1.

Lock the Hydra-Clean

®

 gun trigger safety.

2.

Close the pump air regulator.

3.

Close the red handled bleed-type master air valve 
(required in your system)

4.

Unlock the gun trigger safety and trigger the gun to 
relieve pressure.

5.

Lock the gun trigger safety.

6.

Open the pump drain valve, having a container 
ready to catch the drainage.

7.

Leave the drain valve open until you are ready to 
spray again.

If you suspect that the dispensing valve, extension, or 
grease fitting coupler is clogged, or that pressure has 
not been fully relieved after following the steps above, 
VERY SLOWLY loosen the coupler or hose end 
coupling and relieve pressure gradually, then loosen 
completely, now clear the clog.

Before Using

Prepare cleaning solution as instructed, observing all 
safety precautions. Pre-mix powered cleaners in a 
separate bucket of hot water before adding to water in 
the supply drum.

See F

IG

. 2. Open the main air supply valve, hold the 

spray valve open and slowly open the air petcock until 
the pump is running slowly. After solution is coming from 
the spray nozzle, open the ball valve (24) all the way 
and adjust the air line lubricator (3) to deliver about one 
drop per minute. Refer to the separate lubricator 
instruction manual.

Release the spray valve trigger and let the pump run. 
The pump will charge the accumulator with liquid 
pressure, then stall.

NOTE: Protect surfaces that might be damaged by the 
cleaning solution and rinse before the solution dries on 
both surfaces. You can clean stubborn dirt off better with 
a stronger, heated solution.

WARNING

To avoid serious injury, including fluid injection and 
splashing in the eyes or on the skin, never point the 
gun at yourself or anyone else.

Fluid under high pressure can be injected through the 
skin and cause serious injury. To reduce the risk of an 
injury from injection, splashing fluid, or moving parts, 
follow the Pressure Relief Procedure whenever you:

are instructed to relieve the pressure,

stop spraying,

check or service any of the system equipment,

or install or clean the spray nozzles.

WARNING

Take care not to get spray containing cleaning 
chemicals into your eyes, ears, or nose. If any spray 
does get on your skin or in your eyes, flush 
immediately and thoroughly with water. Seek 
immediate medical attention.
