Safety First!
Instructions and Precautions
Read and understand these safety warnings before using
the M30 jetter. Drain and sewer cleaning can be dangerous
if warnings are ignored. Follow appropriate safety
procedures, your company’s policies and applicable safety
codes and/or laws while operating this machine.
Environment
• Use caution in confined, wet areas. Drain cleaning
professionals often work directly through non-trapped
openings into sewers — make sure that there is
adequate ventilation into the work area.
• Neutralize or remove corrosive chemical drain
cleaners from drain before starting.
• Do not operate machine in areas where combustible
gases, liquids or dust are present. Fire or explosion
may occur.
Keep bystanders or unauthorized persons away
Insist they keep a safe distance before operating
high pressure equipment.
• Never hold on to nozzle or point it at anyone with
machine turned on. High pressure water streams
can cause serious bodily harm.
Always insert hose at least 3-4 feet into pipe opening
and hold onto hose before turning the machine on.
Shut the machine down:
• When changing nozzles, hose or reels.
• Before disconnecting water supply. Running a water
pump “dry” will seriously damage the water pump.
• If it will be unattended.
• If machine fails to run properly.
Common Sense
Don’t operate equipment while smoking, under the
influence of drugs, alcohol or if taking medication that
alters alertness.
Keep all labels, decals, warnings, cautions, and instructions
with machine. For new decals or labels contact Mytana.
• NEVER run flammable liquids or toxic chemicals
(such as insecticide or weed killer), acids or hard
caustics (such as lye) through the pump. Only water!
• NEVER use chemicals or agents that are not
compatible with the Buna-N and PVC (polyvinyl
chloride) or neoprene covering of the hose.
• NEVER clean the machine using its own spray.
The machine is water-protected, but not water
proof. High-pressure spray could damage machine
components.
Gas Jetters
• Operate machine in well ventilated environment.
Exhaust fumes can be potentially lethal to the operator.
• Do not allow flame or sparks in the area of operation.
• Do not refuel engine when it is running or hot.
Spilled gasoline or gas vapor can ignite if it comes
in contact with hot engine.
• Be careful not to touch engine block or the manifold/
muffler during operation. These areas will become
very hot during normal operation.
• Do not operate the machine with the air cleaner
cover removed, this can cause a fire.
• Do not lay jetter unit on its side or tilt it backwards
more than 30° when transporting. This can cause
gas to leak out the cap vent.
u
DO NOT fill the gas tank all the way. Leave several
inches of space between the gas and the top of
the tank to prevent gas from leaking out when
transporting.
Use of diesel fuel in the gas tank may damage the engine.
In case of fuel spill use a cloth to clean up the spilled fuel
and move the machine to another area until all vapors
have cleared.
Gas jetters with an electric starter package will have
a battery attached. Batteries contain sulfuric acid.
Avoid direct skin contact.
• Wear protective gloves, clothing and eye wear
when handling your battery.
