PRO 400 Station Operator Manual

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This unit must be grounded. Grounding provides the path of least resistance for electric current, in the event of malfunction or breakdown, to reduce the risk of electric shock. This unit is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be inserted into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

WARNING! Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance — if it will not fit the outlet; have a grounded outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

SET UP INSTRUCTION

1. Attach handles to chassis with the handle wheels facing to the rear of the unit, using the four wing nuts provided for this purpose.

2. Fill out Warranty Card and return it to CFR.

Filter Installation

There are three filters in the Pro 400: inlet filter, main filter and pump protection filter. It is imperative to the efficient operation of the Pro 400 Station that the filters are installed properly.

Inlet Filter — Install inlet filter bag on removable inlet filter holder and mount holder in the tank vacuum inlet fitting using the black knob. Open side of filter holder should face vacuum inlet hose connection.

Main Filter — Wet the rim of the filter and position it on the filter mound. (white plastic disc) Twist and slide over the mound by pushing downward.

Pump Protection Filter — Position on brass fitting on the filter mound. Slide it down.

PRO 400 STATION Operator Manual

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Check inlet filter. Make sure the removable inlet filter holder and filter bag are attached to the tank inlet fitting before using the Pro 400.

2. Check main filter. Make sure the stainless steel filter is installed snugly.

3. Fill tank with water to a depth of 1/2 (1.25 cm) below the bottom of the upper level float switch. This depth indicates the 10-gallon fill level. Maximum water temperature to be used is 120 to 130 degrees F. Note: The two little dots on the float must point up (they point down on the lower float switch).

4. Add in-tank cleaner per chemical label use instructions. In addition, pre-spraying is often desirable and will assist in producing the fastest and best cleaning results. See chemical product labels for more information. Note: Use caution when moving machine (especially on inclines) with fluid in the tank to prevent fluid from entering vacuum standpipe at back of machine tank and flooding the vacuum.

5. Attach hose assembly to machine. Connect fluid hose to the quick-disconnect found on the front of machine.

6. Prime pump by re-circulating fluid through fluid hose (without a nozzle attached) into the tank for 15/30 seconds. Re-circulating the fluid primes the pump and expels trapped air from the system.

7. Attach the desired tool to the valve end of the hose assembly.

8. Close tank cover, turn on vacuum and pump switches.

9. Clean surface with tool attached to hose assembly.

10. During the cleaning process, the fluid level will be reduced and the lower level float switch will shut off the pump. When the pump shuts off, drain and rinse tank, rinse ultra filter, refill with fresh water and cleaning chemical, and continue cleaning.

CAUTION!

When cleaning, monitor foam in the machine’s tank. Areas cleaned with other cleaning equipment or chemicals may cause excessive foam to collect in the tank.

WARNING! EXCESSIVE FOAM IN THE TANK MAY CAUSE VACUUM MOTOR

FLOODING AND MACHINE DAMAGE. Pour one to two ounces of CFR

Defoam directly into the tank or into the vacuum hose while the vacuum is running

When finished cleaning, perform the daily maintenance procedure. Be sure that all filters are cleaned thoroughly and replaced in machine. Leave cover open for drying.

PRO 400 Station Operator Manual

MAINTENANCE

Daily Maintenance

To maintain optimum performance the equipment, tools and filters should be cleaned after each use. Replace any filters that cannot be cleaned or are damaged. Nozzles that cannot be cleared should be discarded. Wipe down the equipment with a damp cloth to keep clean and preserve the appearance.

1. Tools

Rinse tool head with water to eliminate any debris. Wipe tool with damp cloth and store with head up to prevent clogging of nozzle.

2. Filters

In-Line Strainer Filter — Disconnect the In-line Strainer Filter on the wand by using the quick disconnect coupler. Remove the filter and rinse with water. Remove any debris from the strainer. Keep o-ring and threads of the plug lubricated. CFR DeFoam is a good lubricant or use a non-petroleum based lubricant. This will ensure a tighter seal.

Inlet Filter — Remove the inlet filter from the holder using the black knob. Dump and clean debris at the end of each cleaning job.

Main Filter — Remove the main filter sleeve and rinse out and clean thoroughly.

Pump Protection Filter — This ball-shaped filter should be in place when the tank is cleaned and rinsed. Remove and rinse only after the tank is rinsed.

PRO 400 STATION Operator Manual

Periodic Maintenance

1. Check power cord for any breaks, separations, or cuts. Make sure the ground pin on the connector is intact or the machine will be unsafe. Make sure the ground pin on all three prongs on the twist lock connector are intact.

2.

3. Check for plugged nozzles when using tools. If streaking occurs during cleaning, a plugged nozzle may be the cause. A plugged or partially plugged nozzle can be identified by holding the tool 5-7" above the surface and checking for an even spray pattern. To clean a plugged nozzle, remove the nozzle and direct pressurized air backwards through the nozzle or backwash the nozzle with water. A convenient method is to insert the nozzle into a garden hose ball valve, tighten the ball valve to a faucet, and turn on the water. (CFR has ball valves available, part #7AX020). Inspect nozzle and repeat cleaning procedure, if necessary. Discard nozzles that cannot be cleared. Tool nozzles wear and must be replaced after 200-250 hours of use.

4. Occasionally open side panel(s) and inspect hose and other connections for leaks. Repair or replace any leaking parts. Always disconnect power cord, before removing side panels.

5. It is very important to monitor machine operating hours for proper maintenance of the motors and pumps. After 700 hours of operation, the vacuum motor brushes should be inspected by an authorized repair station and replaced if worn (length is .5 inches or less).

6. Check vacuum motor performance using a vacuum gauge (CFR #70412A). Place this gauge on the tank inlet fitting with the vacuum turned on. Water lift should be between 105 and

135 inches. If the reading is lower, check for air leaks in the tank, cover gasket, and drain hose.

7 . Check pump performance occasionally against built-in pressure gauge. Pump running pressure should be 400 + 10 p.s.i. When pumping fluid through one #04 nozzle, the pressure should be 340 + 20 p.s.i. If the pumping pressure is outside of this range, call your dealer or authorized station. After 400 hours, the pump valves should be replaced. After

700 hours of operation the pump cam bearing and plunger should be replaced. The pressure regulator should be rebuilt after 400 hours of operation.
