SCORPION G2 MANUAL - WATER JETTER/DRAIN CLEANER
1. Water Control Valve. Choose the valve to be used to
control water ow.
If using a foot valve to control water ow, route a hose
from the jetter pump to the IN tting on the foot valve.
Connect the hose on OUT tting of the foot valve to the
hose reel to be used. Connect so that the foot valve
hose feeds into the ball valve on the hose reel. (See
Figure 8.)
Figure.8 - Standard Remote Reel
1. If not using the foot valve, use the ball valve on the reel
being used to control water ow. Route a hose from
the jetter pump into the ball valve on the hose reel.
Make sure quick connect ttings are secure.
2. Position the reel for accessibility. You must be able to
control the jetter hose and the water control valve.
3. Mark the jetter hose near the end to indicate when
the nozzle is getting close to the drain opening when
withdrawn. This will help prevent the nozzle from
coming out of the drain and whipping around. The
distance depends on the conguration of the drain, but
should be at least 4’/1.2 m
4. Select a nozzle and attach. Use nozzles specically
sized for the jetter being used. Using incorrect nozzles
can cause poor performance (low operating pressure
or low ow) or may damage the jetter with excessively
high pressures. Make sure the nozzle orices are clear
and open. See Jetter Nozzle Selection Chart.
Many nozzles attach to the hose with a quick connect.
To attach, pull the collar back, fully insert the male
end of the quick connect mounted on the nozzle and
release the collar (See Figure 9). Conrm that the
connection is secure. This will reduce the risk that the
nozzle is lost during use.
Only use nozzles for the pipe sizes they are rated for. Using
a nozzle designed for smaller pipe sizes in larger diameter
pipe increases the risk of the nozzle changing direction in
the drain, exiting at the user and causing serious injury.
If using the Reverse Root Cutting nozzle for drains larger
than 6”/150 mm and up to 10”/250 mm, an extension must
be used to reduce the risk of the nozzle changing direction
in the drain, exiting at the user and causing serious injury.
For drains 6”/150 mm and smaller, no extension is needed.
If needed, rmly hand tighten the extension to the nozzle –
do not over tighten. See Figure 10.
