Operating the Hydro-Wiper
Opening and closing the wiper control housing
To open the wiper control housing, unscrew the lid in an anti-clockwise direction. If the lid
is tight, use the lid shifting tool supplied with your Hydro-Wiper. This tool fits into the
groove in the top face of the cap and allows greater leverage.
To close, screw the cap onto the battery housing until it is just hand tight.
Do not over
tighten or use the cap shifting tool to tighten the cap.
NOTE!
Always clean and service the O ring before closing the lid. Refer to the
maintenance section of this manual for instructions on doing this.
Installing the battery
Switch off the Hydro-Wiper using the power switch. Gently pull the battery connector off
the battery holder contacts. Remove the battery holder from the control housing and
insert 6 x AA batteries into the battery holder. Check all the batteries are correctly
orientated. Put the battery holder back into the control housing. Re-attach the battery
connector to the battery holder contacts. Switch on the Hydro-Wiper. The LED should flash
4 times and then a wipe is performed.
NOTE!
Use only good quality AA 1.5 volt alkaline batteries (eg.
Energizer
or
Duracell
brand).
