TYPHOON HOT G2 MANUAL - WATER JETTER/DRAIN CLEANER
The manufacture reserves the right to modify design features and technical facts without notice: due to our principals of continuous improvement.
4. Inspect the jetter nozzle orifices for any damage or
blockage. CAUTION: In case of a nozzle blockage
never attempt to clean nozzle while high pressure line
is active and fully charged, refer to the pressure gauge
to check whether it is holding pressure in the line.
Blockages can be cleaned with a nozzle cleaning tool.
Use care not to enlarge nozzle orifices while cleaning.
Damaged nozzles or nozzles with enlarged orifices can
decrease jetter performance and should be replaced.
5. Inspect the hoses, connectors and fittings for wear and
damage. If there are any kinks, cracks, breaks or wear
through the outer jacket of the hose or other damage,
do not use the hose. Damaged hoses can burst or
leak high pressure water and cause serious injury.
Replacement hoses and fitting should be rated at or
higher than the unit pressure and temperature rating.
6. Inspect and maintain the engine per the engine
operator’s manual.
7. Check engine fuel level. If needed, add unleaded
gasoline. See engine operator’s manual for
requirements. Use caution when handling fuel. Work
in a well ventilated area. Never fill the tank while unit is
running or hot, do not overfill tank and do not spill fuel.
Make sure tank cap is securely closed.
8. Check diesel fired burner fuel tank level, if needed add
diesel. Use caution when handling fuel. Work in a well
ventilated area. Never fill the tank while unit is running
or hot, do not overfill tank and do not spill fuel. Make
sure tank cap is securely closed. Ensure burner on/off
button is located in off position and thermostat dial is
set to 0° C / off position.
9. Check the oil level(s) in the pump and gear box through
the sight glass and add oil if needed (see Maintenance
Instructions section). Inspect Engine as directed in the
engine operator’s manual.
Machine and Work Area Set-up
Always wear safety glasses, gloves and other
appropriate protective equipment when setting up
your jetter to protect against chemicals and bacteria
on the equipment. Rubber soled, non-slip shoes can
help prevent slipping on wet surfaces.
Engines produce carbon monoxide, a colorless,
odorless poison gas. Breathing carbon monoxide
can cause nausea, fainting or death. Do not start and
run engine in an enclosed area, even if doors and
windows are open. Only operate outside.
Set-up the jetter and work area according to these
procedures to reduce the risk of injury from high
pressure water, chemical burns, infections, carbon
monoxide and other causes, and prevent jetter
damage.
1. Check work area for:
• Adequate lighting.
• Flammable liquids, vapors or dust that may ignite.
If present, do not work in area until sources have
been identified and corrected. The machine is not
explosion proof and can cause sparks.
• Clear, level, stable dry place for machine and
operator.
• If needed, remove the water from the work area.
Wood or other coverings may need to be put
down.
• Jetter location that is in a well ventilated outdoor
area. Do not place the jetter indoors, even with
doors and windows open. Jetter can be located
remotely from the point of use.
• Suitable water supply. Clear path to transport the
jetter to the set up location.
2. Inspect the drain to be cleaned. If possible, determine
the access point(s) to the drain, the size(s) and
length(s) of the drain, distance to tanks or mainlines,
the nature of the blockage, presence of drain cleaning
chemicals or other chemicals, etc. If chemicals are
present in the drain, it is important to understand the
specific safety measures required to work around
those chemicals. Contact the chemical manufacturer
for required information.
If needed, remove fixture (water closet, etc.) to allow
access to the drain. Do not feed the hose through a
fixture. This could damage the hose and the fixture.
3. Determine the correct equipment for the application.
