5. 

Never  run  pump  without  water  in  it. 

Operating  the  machine 

without water will cause the pump to fail and void the warranty.  

6. 

Check  for  worn  hose  and  components  before  each  use. 

Check  that  all  fittings  are  secured  before  using  jet. 

Worn or 

lose fittings can cause damage to the machine and injure the op-
erator. 

7. 

Protect machine and pump from freezing. 

Storing or operating 

the  jet  in  temperatures  below  freezing  can  damage  pump,  hose 
and other jet components. Store unit indoors or protect with anti-
freeze when not in use.   

8. 

Do not sit or stand on carrying case

9. 

General  Wire  Spring  Co.  will  not  be  liable  for  any  changes 
made to our standard machines or any components not pur-
chased from General Wire Spring Co.

 

AUTOMATIC UNLOADER 

The JM-1000 Mini Jet is equipped with an Automatic Unloader to pro-

tect the pump. It prevents pressure overload in the event that the noz-
zle is clogged or spray wand trigger is off. A water sensor in the pump 
will "sense" if the water is flowing and automatically turn off the power 
off if the water stops flowing to protect the pump from damage. The 
unit may shut off for 1 - 2 seconds while in operation to allow water to 

prime the pump. Do not run the jet for more than 5 minutes with the 
pump in bypass mode. Continuing to operate in bypass mode for ex-
tended periods will cause damage to the pump. Excessive tempera-

tures will damage the pump and void the warranty.

JET NOZZLES 

1.  A variety of jet nozzles are available for drain cleaning. Each has a 

different spray pattern and purpose. Some nozzles may have an 

orifice in the front to cut through the stoppage. All will have holes 
in the back to drive the hose down the line and clean the walls of 

the  pipe.  A  tight  spray  pattern  (15°)  has  more  driving  power  for 
long runs, a wide spray pattern (30°) does a better job of cutting 
the grease off of the walls of the pipe. A combination of nozzles 

may be required to clear a line. Always turn off the machine and 
turn off output valve before changing nozzles. 

2.  Make  sure  the  nozzle  you  are  using  matches  the  pump  size.  A 

3000 psi pump requires a different nozzle orifice than a 1500 psi 
pump. Mismatching nozzles  with pump size will either cause too 

little  pressure,  which  may  not  clear  the  drain,  or  too  much  pres-
sure, which may damage the machine. 

3.  Check nozzles before and after each use for clogged holes which 

can  cause  pressure  to  increase  to  dangerously  high  levels  and 
damage the pump. A clogged hole can be cleared by simply using 
the NCT Nozzle Cleaning Tool. 

4.  Use the nozzle selection guide to determine what nozzle you will 

need for various applications.  

JET HOSE 

When  selecting  hose  size,  consider  that  pressure  is  lost  as  the 

water travels down the length of the hose. As the length increases, the 
pressure  decreases.  In  addition,  the  smaller  the  diameter  of  the 
hose, the greater the loss of pressure per foot will be. As an exam-

ple, a 2 GPM a 1/4” hose will lose 180 lbs. of pressure over 100 ft. of 
hose,  yet  a  3/8”  hose  will  only  lose  25  lbs.  of  pressure  over  the 
same  length  and  at  the  same  flow  rate.  It  is  important  to  select  the 

largest possible hose size  in order  to  have  as  much  pressure  as 
possible  at  the  end  of  the hose.
