The high-pressure pump (A) is located to the rear and below the engine bell housing. Once water flows through this valve with no air, the pump supply is primed. FIGURE 11 A CAUTION: DO NOT OVERFILL RECLAIM TANKS. WATER CAN SPILL ONTO THE GROUND, which defeats the total recovery principal of this machine. WARNING! FUEL The burner and engine use DIESEL FUEL. The diesel fuel tank is located on the left side of the NILFISK CYCLONE. 18 - FORM NO. 56041819 - Nilfisk Cyclone ENGLISH / 19 OPERATING THE MACHINE START-UP Operating the pump without sufficient water in the tank will void the warranty on the pump and any other equipment damaged due to this action. 1 2 Turn the key to the "ON" and "START" positions on the control panel. Once the engine starts, allow engine to warm up for 3 minutes before increasing RPM. To prime the water filters: Rotate the air bleed valves on top of all 4 filter housings to "OPEN" position. With the engine running and the pump float control switch in the "UP" position in Reclaim #3, water will flow into the filter housings Run the engine until water flows through each valve. Note: This filter priming process must be done after every filter cleaning, before resuming cleaning. Failure to bleed the filters will cause a decrease in cleaning time. WARNING! CLEANING OPERATION Make sure that all floor grates and covers are secured to the floor, as the Cyclone Cleaning Head could project any loose objects that could cause physical injury and property damage. Do not operate on loose or broken concrete or asphalt as damage to the surface could occur, as well as damage to the cleaning head itself. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Drive the unit to the area to be cleaned, and ensure the engine water temperature is 130 degrees or above before cleaning. The cleaning results will be improved if the area is swept of debris before cleaning. Switch the throttle to high speed, move the speed control level forward. After forward motion starts, turn on the Cyclone switch, then the Pump switch, lastly the Burner switch. Operate the unit for 3 to 4 minutes to allow the cleaning water temperature to rise. This unit must be kept moving whenever the high pressure pump is on; standing still will cause the surface to become scarified. Depending on the severity of the dirt/oil/grease on the surface being cleaned, you may need to decrease your speed and double scrub very soiled areas. (Cleaning the least soiled area first will extend the duration of cleaning time before debris filters need to be serviced. ) Once you have cleaned as much area as desired, turn the heater off. It is recommended to run the pump for a few minutes WITHOUT HEAT after your cleaning is complete. This will run fresh water through the burner to allow it to cool before turning off the system. Lastly, turn off the pump, keeping the Cyclone spinning to recover residual water. WARNING! FORM NO. [. . . ] Check for plugged Cyclone spray tips.
