Spray Nozzles

Each machine is equipped with one or more spray 
nozzles, depending on the model. Different spray 
nozzles are calibrated for each machine, depending on 
the flow and pressure of that particular model. Spray 
nozzles vary in bore size and angle of spray. Popular 
spray angles are 0°, 15°, 25°, 40°. When ordering, 
please specify size and angle of nozzle. Nozzle size for 
each machine is located on the serial plate.

Unloader Valves

Unloader valves relieve pressure in the line when a 
spray gun is closed. Unloader valves are preset and 
tested at the factory before shipping. Occasional 
adjustment of the unloader may be necessary to 
maintain correct pressure. For valve adjustment 
contact your nearest dealer or call technical support. 
Tampering with the factory setting may cause personal 
injury and/or property damage, and will void the manu-
facturer's warranty.

Winterizing Procedure

Damage due to freezing is not covered by warranty. 
Adhere to the following cold weather procedures 
whenever the washer must be stored or operated 
outdoors under freezing conditions.

It is necessary to protect your machine against freezing 
when temperatures drop below 32° F. Siphoning a 
small amount of antifreeze into the system is recom-
mended. This is done by pouring a 50-50 mix of anti-
freeze and water into the float tank and then siphoning 
100% antifreeze through the detergent line with the 
pump on. If compressed air is available, an air fitting 
can be screwed into the float tank strainer fitting, and by 
injecting compressed air, all water will be blown out of 
the system. The use of a draft diverter will prevent the 
wind chill factor from freezing the coil.

Low Pressure Diagnosis

(Machines with spray gun)

Refer to Troubleshooting Chart for low pressure. If the 
trouble is found to be either the unloader or the pump, 
your next step is to determine which is the problem. 
This can be done by eliminating the unloader from the 
system and attaching the 50' discharge hose directly to 
the pump. If high pressure is developed in this manner, 
the pump is good and the unloader needs to be 
repaired or replaced. If low pressure is still present, 
then the pump needs repairing. 

CAUTION: When using this procedure to test 
components keep the spray gun open at all times.

ATTENTION: Lorsque cette procédure est utilisée 

pour tester les composants, garder le pistolet 
pulvérisateur ouvert en tout temps.

High Limit Hot Water Thermostat

For safety, each machine is equipped with a high limit 
control switch. In the event the temperature of the water 
should exceed its operating temperature, the high limit 
control will turn the burner off until the water cools.

Pumps

Use only SAE 10W-40 weight non-foaming oil. Change 
oil after first 50 hours of use. Thereafter, change oil 
every year or at 500 hour intervals. Oil level should be 
checked through use of the dipstick found on the top of 
the pump or by the red dot visible through the oil gauge 
window. Oil should be maintained at that level.

Heating Coils
To Check Water Heater Coil for Leaks

With the main burners “OFF” start the pumping unit and 
allow it to run for a few minutes. Check into the burner 
compartment with a drop light or flashlight. If no leaks 
are visible, then water dripping from coils is condensa-
tion from the flue gases when the burners are on.

Condensation from Heating Coil

When cold water is being pumped into the water heater 
coils, and the burners are on, condensation will form on 
the coils and drip down into the burner compartment, 
giving the appearance of a leaking coil, particularly on 
cold humid days.

Descaling Coils

In alkaline water areas, lime deposits can accumulate 
rapidly inside the coil pipes. This growth is increased by 
the extreme heat build up in the coil. The best preven-
tion for liming conditions is to use high quality cleaning 
detergents. In areas where alkaline water is an extreme 
problem, periodic use of Landa Coil Descaler (part # 
8.914-296.0) will remove lime and other deposits 
before coil becomes plugged. (

Periodic descaling of the heating coil is recom-
mended so please consult your local Landa Dealer 
for instructions.
