Low Water Pressure:
Low water pressure is usually due to the
power supply delivering less then 12 volts. Other common low
water pressure problems include kinked hoses, vapor locked
hoses, plugged pump or the shower head being to high above
pump.
12 Volt Power:
Check that pump is connected to a good 12 volt
power source (battery or generator). Voltage below 12 volts will
cause the water flow to be reduced.
Kinked Hoses:
Check that pump hose and shower hose
are not kinked. Squeeze kinks from all hoses before use. Do not
use system with kinked hoses.
Vapor Lock:
If pump is workin ���� he hoses are not kinked, and
water is still not spraying from the shower head, your system is
vapor locked. Vapor lock can be released by applying suction to
the shower head while pump is on and submerged in water
(Heater must be off).
Plugged Pump:
Occasionally the pump will get plugged with
debris in the water - remove pump cap and clean out input area.
Shower Head Height: The shower hose is 16 feet long for con-
venience around camp. For best water flow keep shower head 6
feet or less above pump. To increase water flow reduce elevation
between showerhead and pump.
Gear Bag as Water Container: If using padded gear bag as
a water container, it is necessary to first position plastic bag
inside gear bag to hold water. Position pump inside plastic bag
with suction end of pump away from plastic bag to prevent
pump from attracting loose plastic bag around suction end of
pump, which may restrict water flow.
Low Water Temperature:
Several factors contribute to cool
water temperatures. The most common is a low or empty
propane tank. For best performance use a full propane tank
stored at room temperature. High water flow or wind also reduce
water temperatures.
Check Propane Source:
The X-40 is designed to operate with
a full propane tank stored at room temperature. If propane source
is low or if the propane temperature is very cold, the X-40 heater
will not heat as hot as normal and it may be needed to recirculate
water.
Wind & Altitude:
The X-40 is designed to operate in low wind
conditions and below 5,000 feet. For best performance, safely
shield X-40 from wind. Above 5,000 the X-40 may not heat as hot
as normal and it may be needed to recirculate water.
Re-circulate Water: The X-40 is able to instantly provide hot
water regardless of how cold the water source is, but sometimes
recirculating the water is helpful. To recirculate water, place the recirculating the water is helpful. T recirculating the water is helpful. T
showerhead and pump in a water container with 5 - 20 gallons
of water. Turn on the pump and then the heater. In just a few
minutes the water spraying from the shower head will be a com-
fortable temperature. By recirculating the water you are able to
still enjoy hot water with a cold or near empty propane tank or at
higher altitudes. Do not heat water over 100° or injury may result.
Follow directions found on page 4.
Condensation:
The water dripping from the bottom of the Hot
Tap during use is normal and will occur every time heater is on.
W ater must be flowing from X-40 showerhead before igniting propane burner.
Water must always be flowing from X-40 showerhead when propane burner is on.
If water flow drops or water temperature increases, immediately point showerhead away from body and safely turn off
heater until water pressure is regained. CAUTION - water may be hot when water pressure is regained - keep clear of
showerhead until desired water temperature is obtained.
Do not heat water over 100°F. System is not designed to heat water for human consumption.
Do not use indoors. The X-40 heater, like all propane systems emits deadly carbon monoxide fumes when operating.
Designed for outdoor use only. Improper use can result in injury or death.
Allow X-40 heater to completely cool before handling or storing & transport. Turn off gas valve on propane tank & discon-
nect regulator from propane tank between uses.
For best performance, shield system from wind and use propane tanks stored at room temperature.
In cold climates remove pump from water source and purge hoses with air after each use.
(To prevent damage to heating coil from freezing.)
Do not heat in confined areas. Heat only outside in well ventilated areas. Do not operate near any combustible sources.
Position propane tank clear of all heat sources. Do not store items on top of X-40. Keep clear of top and bottom covers
and housing during ignition and operation. Housing is HOT, do not touch.
Adjust water temperature with gas control knob located on front of X-40 near bottom of panel. If water is too hot reduce
gas flow using propane valve. If water is not hot enough, increase gas flow using propane valve on front of X-40 or recy-
cle water as defined on page 2. If using optional Garden Hose Adapter adjust water flow to 1 gallon or less per minute.
Water flows above 1 gallon per minute may result in lower then desired water temperatures.
If ignitor fails replace AA battery (tip end inserts first). If battery fails in field, place lit match through manual ignition hole
on back of system then turn on gas valve.
If using padded gear bag as a water container, it is necessary to first position plastic bag inside gear bag to hold water.
Position pump inside plastic bag with suction end of pump away from plastic bag to prevent pump from attracting loose
plastic bag around suction end of pump, which may restrict water flow.
