The float switch in the suction cycle relay  

 

holding circuit causes this circuit to drop out  

 

at a predetermined liquid level in the tank,  

 

preventing overfilling and pump damage.  

 

The discharge circuit has no such float switch,  

 

therefore, the cleaner must be plugged into  

 

outlets that are uniformly phased, so that  

 

operating the SUCTION button rotates the  

 

motor and pump in the correct direction.  

 

Connection to improperly phased outlets  

 

can void the warranty on this machine. 

B.  Test the outlet phasing by pushing the  
 

SUCTION button and verifying whether  

 

the cleaning tool is actually sucking. If not,  

 

the outlet phasing must be modified by  

 

authorized service personnel. 

5.   For suction operation: 

Open the inlet ball valve, 

V1, fully. Make sure all female quick disconnect 
caps are on the male fittings on the clean side 
and the dirty side discharge port. Place the float 
switch selector toggle switch on the control panel 
to the “Filter” position, then press the SUCTION 
button to start the motor and vacuum coolant  
and chips from the sump. 
A.  IMPORTANT! Be sure the toggle switch on  
 

the control panel is in the Filter position so  

 

the float switch in the dirty side will be in the  

 

suction circuit to shut the unit off when full.  

 

Failure to do so will allow the unit to overfill  

 

and spill fluid out the mufflers onto the floor. 

6.   As soon as fluid stops passing through the hose, 

press the STOP button to turn off the motor. 

 

A.  The compartment’s maximum capacity is, at  

 

 

most, 10% above the rated capacity. The float  

 

 

switch described in Paragraphs 3 and 4  

 

 

 

above, and located near the compartment  

 

 

suction fitting, will shut off the motor if  

 

 

overfilling starts to occur.

7.   To return filtered chip-free coolant to  

the sump, or wash down the machine, or 

discharge dirty coolant into your recycling  

or disposal system:

 close the suction inlet ball 

valve V1, attach the 1-1/2" hose to the discharge 
port, place the discharge nozzle in the machine 
sump, push the DISCHARGE button, and depress 
the discharge hose nozzle valve. 

A.  Be sure the suction inlet ball valve is  
 

fully closed before operating in the  

 

DISCHARGE mode! 

 
B.  IMPORTANT! Be sure the suction inlet ball  
 

valve is fully closed or fully open, depending  

 

on the desired operation (closed-discharge,  

 

open-suction). Failure to do so will allow  

 

particulates to enter the valve seat and  

 

seize the valve. 

C.  Stop the motor as soon as fluid stops passing  
 

through the hose. 

D.  The sump cleaner will discharge all but  
 

about an inch of fluid in the bottom of the  

 

compartment. This is unimportant if the  

 

compartment cleaner is used for one type  

 

of coolant only. If different coolants are to be  

 

handled in that compartment, remove its drain  

 

plug to empty it completely. 

 

8.  To fill the clean side with clean fluid:

 

A.  Close the suction inlet valve V1, fully, attach  
 

1-1/2" hose to the clean side inlet port, remove  

 

the discharge nozzle from the other end of the  

 

1-1/2" hose and attach it to a clean fluid tank,  

 

select “Auxiliary” position on the float switch  

 

selector toggle switch, and press SUCTION. 

B. IMPORTANT! Be sure the suction inlet ball  
 

valve is fully closed or fully open, depending  

 

on the desired operation (closed-discharge,  

 

open-suction). Failure to do so will allow  

 

particulates to enter the valve seat and  

 

seize the valve. 

C. IMPORTANT! Be sure the toggle switch on  
 

the control panel is in the Auxiliary position  

 

so the float switch in the clean side will be in  

 

the suction circuit to shut the unit off when full.  

 

Failure to do so will allow the unit to overfill  

 

and spill fluid out the mufflers onto the floor. 

D.  As soon as fluid stops passing through  
 

the hose, press the STOP button to turn  

 

off the motor. The compartment’s maximum  

 

capacity is, at most, 10% above the rated  

 

capacity. The float switch described in  

 

Paragraphs 3 and 4 above, and located near 

 

the compartment suction fitting, will shut off  

 

the motor if overfilling starts to occur.
