S-Cam CS1000.22, CS1300.22 manual During operation, Accessory operation

During operation

The pressure was set at the factory during the testing procedure; no adjustments to the machine should be required for operation. During operation, do not leave the machine running for more than two minutes without the trigger gun being pulled. Although your machine has a by-pass valve on it and may have a thermal relief system, this pressure build-up can cause extensive pump damage. If machine will not be discharging water for more than two minutes, shut the machine off.

Hose and reels

Hose sizing

Use extreme caution when attaching devices to the discharge of this equipment. Allow only trained individuals to operate this machinery. The attachments must be rated to operate within the pressure range of the equipment or injury could occur. Only use attachments designed, rated, and sized for the equipment by the manufacturer.

The discharge hoses and fittings should be inspected before every use. Also inspect the connec- tions made on the hose reels. Refer to accessories listing and exploded views included for speci- fications and replacement parts.

For pressure wash applications, the ideal hose to deliver adequate water flow and pressure at dis- tances up to 300 feet is a 3/8” ID hose with a minimum burst pressure rating no less than four times the operating pressure of the equipment. For drain jetting and sewer cleaning, a hose should be selected for the adequate pressure range and length needed. The diameter of the hose should be chosen from the chart below for the application requirements.

Hose size	Pipe size	Typical application
3/8” or 5/16”	4” to 8” lines	Floor drains, septic lines, and long runs
1/4”	2” to 4” lines	Kitchen, laundry drains, and clean-outs
1/8”	1” to 2” lines	Tight bends, bathroom and trap lines

Hose size considera- tions

-Remember, when selecting a hose, the smaller diameter and longer the hose, the greater the pres- sure and flow loss will be.

-Do not couple hoses together for drain jetting. The long couplings will get caught in bends in the drain lines.

-When drain jetting, always attach a shut-off valve, trigger gun, or foot valve directly to the hose to be inserted in the drain. This ensures safe shut-off of the water flow at the user’s discretion.

Drain and trap hoses

In drain jetting applications, the hose must be inserted into the drain line at least five feet before starting water flow. Be sure machine is not powered on before hose is inserted into the drain. Be sure machine is shut down before removing the hose from the drain. Always be sure hose is marked at the point five feet from the nozzle to iden- tify nozzle position.

Drain and trap hoses listed in the accessory sheet are fitted with a twist-fast coupler. Your drain jetting equipment is shipped with an assortment of twist-fast couplers to make the necessary con- nections for the drain hose to be installed either on the existing hose, by removing the drain noz- zle, or by installing it directly to the foot valve included on some models.

Nozzles The nozzle, or tip, of the machine is used to restrict the discharge water flow to achieve the rated operating pressure of the equipment. Only use a properly sized nozzle for your equipment. The nozzle should be inspected before every use for obstructions and nozzle wear. New nozzles can be selected from the accessory sheet enclosed in the Operator’s Manual folder pocket.
