WHEN YOU DO NOT GET THE “CLICK”
PROCESS TO CHECK IGNITION SYSTEM BY A TESTER OR METER:
1.)
Turn the pump and ignition switch to the “ON” position with the unit plugged in.
The gas tank should NOT be hooked up to the machine at this time.
2.)
Make sure the wand control is open and water is flowing through the machine.
3.)
Check for 24 volts at the transformer. (Left side of the transformer as you face it.)
If there is no voltage reading, change the transformer.
4.)
To check for 24 volts on the terminal strip, start on line 4. Touch one wire of the
volt meter to the wire on the terminal strip at position four and the other wire on a
ground or neutral wire. If you get a reading, then go on to line five and continue
until the power is interrupted. Every switch has 2 wires, one accepting the power,
and the other feeding back from the switch after it has been energized. Once the
faulty switch is determined, then replace.
TEMPERATURE RISES TOO QUICKLY
1.)
The air has not been purged from the system. Shut down and allow air to escape.
To speed up this process, take the nozzle off and turn the pump “ON” and “OFF” a
few times. Once there is a steady stream of water and there is no sputtering, then
the pump should run smoothly also. Replace nozzle, turn on pump and machine
should be ready to light. IF YOU LIGHT THE MACHINE AND HEAT AN AIR POCKET,
YOU COULD BLOW A COIL. CAUTION IS ADVISED.
FUSES KEEP BLOWING
1.)
If your circuit trips, then move to a different outlet. You may be overloading that
circuit.
2.)
If the fuse on the machine is blowing again and again, you most likely have a
problem with either your pump or motor, or you may be using too long of an
extension cord. Try not to exceed 50 ft. of heavy-duty extension cord. Or you may
be using the wrong size fuse. Check the machine specification table for correct
fuse size.
PILOT BURNER DOESN’T SHUT OFF
1.
The pilot solenoid may have debris in the valve not allowing it to close all the way.
To repair: Remove any debris that may be lodged in the brass section of the valve.
EXCESS CARBON FORMS ON COILS
1.)
Check position of coils to insure clear area around top of burner.
