6.
Make sure the water supply line valve located on the
driver’s side under the front of the debris body is
open.
Figure 4-16
7.
Make sure all drain valves are closed. There is one
located at the back of the heat exchanger, two
located at the front of the water pump, and one
located under the front bumper.
NOTE
Any time the sewer or leader hose is added on or
removed, the footage counter parameters should be
reset.
8.
Release the containment shield clamps and raise the
shield.
DANGER
9.
Slip the hose guide (tiger tail) over the jetting hose.
10. Lower the containment shield before pressurizing the
hose.
NOTE
Operators may prefer to put the tiger tail on the sewer
hose rope end first, but for difficult areas, the tiger tail
can be put on the hose rope end last to help lift and
direct the nozzle into place.
11. Fasten the nozzle and the 1 in. nozzle extension
hand-tight onto the jetting hose. Always make sure
the nozzle is the proper pressure and flow rating for
the water pump to avoid personal injury and provide
maximum efficiency. Never attach any type of spray
device to the jetting hose.
12. Lower the sewer hose and tiger tail into the bottom of
the basin, allowing for a few extra feet of hose. The
normal procedure is to jet up-stream, against the flow
of water. Use care to avoid hose tangles, and, with a
swinging motion, position nozzle into the line being
cleaned. Open the sewer hose water valve. Slowly
increase the water pressure on the jetting head and
pay out 2 feet of hose into the sewer line. Make sure
the tiger tail is aligned properly with the lower
entrance to the line. The tiger tail will protect the
jetting hose from wear and tear and possible
damage. Secure the tiger tail rope to the truck and
turn off the water pump. Place the jetting hose in the
hose guide and lower the hose guide roller into
place. Tighten the wing nut on the roller. The hose is
now secured in the guide. Lower the Lexan
containment shield. It is not necessary to lock the
containment shield clamps at this time. Now prepare
to set up the vacuum system.
NOTE
The variable pressure dial for the water pump allows
use of various flow nozzles. Turn off the water
pressure first and slowly increase the pressure up to
the nozzle rating. Do not exceed the pressure rating
of the hose or nozzle.
Body Flush Valve Decal
Water Supply Line Valve
OPEN
CLOSED
Never pressurize the sewer hose when the hose
is lying on the street or not properly oriented in
the sewer and the sewer nozzle is inside the pipe.
The pressurized nozzle will cause the hose to
whip uncontrollably and could cause personal
injury or death.
Operating without the containment shield in
place can cause serious injury or death.
