Locate the knurled adjuster ring nut, arrowed in Fig. 5 which is located on
the Detergent Tank side of the machine.
Turning the Ring Nut clockwise, from the position shown in Fig. 5, will
decrease the mixture strength - similarly, screwing in an anticlockwise
direction will incr ease mixture strength. Reassemble the machine and test.
If more adjustment is required....repeat the operation, remembering to
switch OFF and unplug the machine before removing the cover.
Dept. when de-sooting is required.
Poor grades of fuel oil or inadequate combustion will cause heavy build
up of soot on the heating coil. This deposit will insulate the coil and reduce
efficiency. It will restrict air flow through the coil, further aggravating the
soot build up. Contact your CLARKE dealer or CLARKE International Service

Periodically, check the heating coil for limescale buildup. This will be
dependant upon the relative hardness of your water supply.
When de-scaling is required, use a large water tank as your water supply
and add de-scaler according to the manufacturers instructions.
Remove the lance extension from the handle assembly, place the handle
