CASTORS (MODEL SC165 OPTIONAL)
The castors are packed separately. Turn the boiler upside down and insert the 3 castors. These should be
pushed in hard until they stop. Once installed these remain in place permanently.
FILLING
SC75
(see Fig.1)
Remove elbow filler cap and fill unit to Max. level indicator with clean - preferably hot water.
Ensure that the ‘O’ ring is seated correctly on the elbow filler cap and place elbow filler cap lugs into filler hole
with the tongue pointing to the TWO O’CLOCK position. Turn the elbow filler cap clockwise to the SIX O’CLOCK
position so that the tongue locks into place between the two teeth.
SC77, SC125 & SC165
(see Fig.2)
Remove filler cap and fill unit to Max. level line or indicator with clean - preferably hot water.
Replace filler cap.
If the unit requires refilling, unplug and allow to cool for at least 2 minutes before removing filler cap - Beware
of steam - and re-filling. When finished, allow to cool completely and empty unit. Always store unit empty.
SAFETY CUT- OUT
A safety cut-out is fitted to prevent overheating of the element if water boils below the Min. level.
If unit stops boiling during use this may be the cause. Wait for 2 minutes before removing filler cap then re-fill
with water. The cut-out will self reset and steam be produced again within 20 minutes.
The cut-out will not protect the element if a part filled unit is tilted during use in a way which enables
part of the element to be out of the water for longer than 15-20 seconds.
CHANGING TOOLS
Never remove the hose or change tools when the unit is plugged in. Wait 2 minutes after unplugging before
changing tools. Screw the nut, which is on the end of the steam hose, onto the outlet of the tool -
hand tight
only.

SC75
SC77 SC125, SC165
Do not overfill the unit or hot water will be forced up the steam hose.
Screw hose onto threaded outlets of boiler and accessory, hand tight is sufficient.
Do not over tighten
but do check for hand tight fit from time to time during use.
Connect mains lead from unit to power socket and switch on. It can take approx 20 mins before steam is
produced - depending on fill water quantity and temperature.
Do not leave unattended and keep children & pets out of the room.
Just before full steam production a small amount of bubbling and water will occur at the accessory.
Beware of
hot water discharge prior to steam emission.
