13. Now allow the steam stripper to cool completely, carefully store
the steam hose and cable and replace the steam plate. If work is
completed and the steam stripper is to be stored prepare the machine
as detailed in Maintenance and Servicing.
STRIPPING TECHNIQUE
1.
To help steam to penetrate more quickly and speed up stripping
perforate the wallpaper covering with a Hiretech HTP-2 Wallpaper
Perforator. This is important where papers are in multiple layers,
painted over or are a vinyl type. To save even more time perforate
the covering while waiting for the steam stripper to produce steam.
2.
Start at the top of the wall and work across and down-wards. Place
the steam plate against the surface of the covering to be stripped.
3.
Wait about 15 seconds, then move the steam plate across the wall
to the next area slightly over lapping the area just steamed.
4.
Loosen the edge of the covering with a stripping knife. A broad
blade stripping knife is recommended for best results. If the covering
is difficult to strip allow a little longer to steam, you will quickly learn
how long you need to steam the wallpaper to make it easy to strip.
5.
Using the stripping knife in a downwards direction at a 45oangle
towards the steam plate, begin to strip the covering from the top of
the wall and downwards all the time moving the steam plate ahead
of the area just stripped.
6.
During stripping steam will be collecting in the trough at the bottom
of the steam plate and condensing into water, which should be
drained away from time to time.
7.
On completion of stripping the wall or ceiling surface should be
washed down to remove any remaining pieces of covering and glue.
OPERATING HINTS
1.
Care should be taken to check the condition of the surface to be
stripped. Should plaster on the wall be loose, it is probable that when
the covering is removed the plaster or parts will come away. Check
by gently tapping the wall all over, a hollow sound will indicate that
the plaster is loose. In such circumstances repairs should be made.
2.
Clean the steam stripper while it is still warm to the touch. When
cold any pieces of paper stuck to the steam stripper will be difficult to
remove.
3.
When not in use ensure that the steam stripper is empty and dry.
Always store in a dry place.
MAINTENANCE AND SERVICING
1.
On completion of work allow the steam stripper to cool completely
for a MINIMUM OF 4 HOURS. Remove the steam cap, turn the
machine over and drain off remaining water by depressing the
rubber safety valve located at the base of the tank filler neck. Replace
cap, wipe down body and replace the steam hose, cable and steam
plate. Store in a dry place.
IMPORTANT. The filler cap and filler neck must be maintained in
good condition. Inspect both regularly and ensure that the filler cap
locates properly and that both cap and filler neck are not worn
or damaged in any way. If damage is noted do not use the steam
stripper under any circumstances, return it to you dealer for service.
FAULT FINDING
FAULT
Machine does not heat up
ACTION
Check power supply and fuse in plug. If fuse blows more than once return
your steam stripper to nearest dealer for service.
FAULT
Steam escaping from filler cap.
ACTION
Switch off and allow to cool for a MINIMUM OF 2 MINUTES. Using a
glove and at arms length carefully remove the filler cap. Inspect the filler
cap and filler neck for signs of damage or dirt. If problem persists return
machine to dealer for service.
On no account attempt to adjust or tighten the filler cap when the machine
is switched on and steam pressure remains.
FAULT
Steam stops prematurely (could be accompanied by an escape of steam
from below machine - safety vent).
ACTION
CAUTION steam hose or steam outlets could be blocked. Disconnect
from power supply. First check to see if hose is kinked or flattened. If not
proceed with caution. Allow the machine to cool for a MINIMUM OF 2
HOURS to allow steam pressure to drop. Remove filler cap using gloves
at arms length.
If cause can not be found return the machine to nearest dealer for service.
FAULT
Filler cap rotates past 'stop' position.
ACTION
CAUTION Do not use machine, return to nearest dealer for service.
FAULT
Machine overheats.
ACTION
Check machine is on a level surface. If fault continues return to dealer for
service.
FAULT
Escape of water and/or steam from below machine as steam stripper
heats up - safety vent.
ACTION
Machine has been over filled. Avoid over filling.
CAUTION Carpets and flooring should be protected to avoid damage as
water and liquids are present at all times during stripping.
