Start washing, making sure to move your washing gun only
from top to bottom (for a vertical surface) or towards you
(for a horizontal surface), dispensing the detergent all the
time to provide for best washing eects.
While washing, your vacuum cleaner should be kept switched
on all the time, so that it can draw in the condensed steam
from the surface being washed.
Upon completion of washing, empty your vacuum cleaner
container, disconnect the hose from the machine, and
proceed as in the “Switch-O Procedure” Section.
The volume of steam being dispensed using the washing gun
can be adjusted by means of the valve placed under the HOT
cover near the safety valve. In its vertical position, the valve
is completely open, and then the volume of steam being
dispensed is the highest. In its horizontal position, the valve
is completely closed, and then the steam is not dispensed
at all. Intermediary positions in between extreme positions
mean that the valve is partially open.

Clean the machine if dirty. By cleaning the machine each
time after you nish your work, you will keep it in very good
technical condition for a long time.
Place the machine so that the boiler draining outlet is
directed into the open space. Carefully open valve no. 19,
paying special attention to the steam that is coming from
the outlet. High-pressure steam jet may lead to serious
burns!
Leave the machine in dry, warm area that is free from dust.
Drain the boiler completely, leaving valve no. 19 in its open
position. This valve can only be closed just before you start
your work.
If the machine is to be stored in
temperatures below 0ºC (32 F), it
must be drained from all uids (water,
detergent, fuel) using valves no. 15,
16, and 17. Then, all the water must be
pumped out from the water system,
by entering the maintenance mode
by pressing the Maintenance mode
button that occurs for several seconds
in the upper part of the display when
the machine is started.
Afterwards, by pressing the DETERGENT 2 button, the water
pump will be run for 5 seconds pumping out any remaining
water from the water system into the boiler. Repeat this
procedure several times, watching if any water is still present
in the tube that supplies water into the water lter, and in
the lter itself. If you cannot see any water coming out, do
not start water pump any more to avoid dry running.
The last step is to remove the water from the water lter by
unscrewing its plastic dome and draining the rest of water.
When dry, re-install the dome on the water lter.

element 9). When the machine is stopped and emptied,
unscrew the coupling that connects the four-terminal
network with the copper tube (Fig. 3, element 1, and Fig. 4
element 1). Using a syringe, inject some VAPOR into
the copper tube. Wait till it starts to boil, and slowly
add small portions in order to thoroughly dissolve
the mineral deposit inside the tube. After approx.
20 minutes, re-connect the coupling to the four-terminal
network. Close the boiler drain valve and the water tank
drain valve. Pour approx. 1-2 litres of VAPOR into the
water tank. Start the machine, wait till the water pump
sucks the entire VAPOR in from the water tank.
As soon as the machine stops and begins to squeal, add
water into the tank. Pour the water in until the machine
starts both the burner and the boiler.
Replace water lter, replace water pump.
Replace tanks and level probes in uid tanks.
This indicates that the machine has been left in freezing

When the boiler is heated up (16 bar), leave the
machine for approx. 5 - 30 minutes, depending on
the system’s scaling degree, in order to completely
dissolve the scale. When the scale dissolving process
is completed, ow the steam several times by
pressing the trigger at the successive hoses in order
to ush the silicon / Teon steam line and couplings
from any remaining scale. Completely empty the
boiler using the drain valve. Start the machine
2-3 times by lling the boiler, and heating and draining
it through the individual cleaning and washing hoses.
The machine is descaled now.
Obviously, depending on the hydraulic system’s ow
capacity (or scaling), scale can also occur in elements
Fig. 3 elements 1-13 and Fig. 4 elements 1-9, which
should also be cleaned within the descaling process,
depending on situation. Pay special attention to the
steam presence sensor (Fig. 3, element 11) which should
be installed / dismantled with special care and caution.

Regularly descale and protect the FORTADOR washer water line against freezing. Do not allow the water pump to
be run dry.
Fill them water tank to the full, so that the water level in the tank is above the water lter height. Loosen the water
lter cup, so that the lter can be freely lled with water, remove the transparent tube from water pump inlet and
let this tube ll up too, and then slide it fast back to its original location. Now the water pump should easily suck the
water in. While starting the machine, open the valve (Fig. 2 element 9) for a while, till such time as the water pump
overcomes boiler pressure and the water pump non-return valve opens (change in the water pump’s operating noise
from clattering to regular, mued noise).
NOTE: Long-term “dry” operation of the water pump results in permanent damage to the pump unit!!!
AD a) – replace the gun (or try to repair it by replacing gun valve ball and spring or by descaling gun valve with
a 50% chance of success in case of the cleaning hose, or replace the solenoid valve in case of the washing hose).
AD b) – replace in quick connector O-rings, and use silicon grease to provide for necessary slippage of the connector’s
friction elements. AD c) – replace the safety valve (it is worn out, and fails to fully close). AD d) – replace swivel joints
that connect the gun with the cleaning hose (worn out pipe silicon / Teon sealant).

Always use proper and good quality fuel (heating oil
or winter fuel is not a good choice). The use of a high
quality fuel is a guarantee of repeatability of the
burner’s operating performance (no need to periodically
adjust composition of the fuel / air mixture, and the fuel
nozzle does not tend to wear out so fast).

When we have a reduction of density of the air, there is, at equal volume, a lower amount of oxygen, so to burn the same
amount of fuel, it is necessary a bigger air volume. Since there is no possibility of increasing the air ow through the burner
ventilation, it is necessary to reduce the amount of fuel to be burned down. Of course with this setting there is a reduction in
the actual thermal power of the burner.

To quantify this reduction refer to the table below where the correction factor fc is returned to the dierent operating
conditions:
• -hearth input Qf = 1,259 kW
• -pressure in combustion chamber Pcc = 6.2 mbar
• -altitude installation: 1000 m slm
• -Inlet air temperature: 50 °C

Properly adjust the composition of the fuel / air mixture.
Remove the burner’s black cover.
a) Make sure that the burner’s heating power setting
corresponds to boiler size. This adjustment is made using
Fig.7 element 1 by turning a screwdriver to the left or right.
b) Initial setting of the air damper is made by turning the
adjustment screw Fig. 9, element 1, for approx. 1 level in line
with Fig. 8, element 2.
c) Using a hexagonal Allen wrench no. 4, turn the knob to
the left to the end as in Fig. 10, element 1, and then turn the
wrench clockwise 1 – 1.5 turn to the right.
Carefully watching the boiler’s chimney outlet (there
should be no black or white smoke), adjust fuel amount to
a satisfying dose (typical setting in the range from extreme
left position + 1 turn to the right to 2.5 turns to the right).
Make sure that the burner-boiler assembly does not shake in
the resonance (characteristic loud rumbling noise). In case
fuel pump adjustment range is insucient, adjust the air
damper Fig. 9, element 1 (typical setting range: 0.5 - 2.0).
This setting and precision adjustment should be conducted
several times until a light ame is achieved in the direct view
window as in Fig. 7, element 2. The target adjustment should
be performed on a heated machine during a third or fourth
boiler heating (normal operation mode), whereas precision
adjustment refers to the machine’s cold start procedure.
NOTE: Since it is not possible to adjust the burner by
performing steps as above, the fuel nozzle must be worn
out. Dismantle the burner and replace the nozzle.
NOTE: Watch for proper installation of fuel supply line
(Fig. 10 element 5) and fuel return line (Fig. 10 element 4)
as per Fig. 10.
Fuel nozzle replacement should be accompanied by proper
setting of ignition electrodes. Distance from nozzle head to
ignition electrodes, and from ignition electrodes to the swirl
vane: as in Figures 11 and 12.

Prevention
Solution
Touching the machine or the hose results in a soft
tingling feeling.
• Electrostatic charge build-up on the surface of
the machine (gas or liquid ow in plastic or Teon
hoses).
• High humidity of the air in the machine operation
location, especially in Asian countries or weakly
ventilated rooms.
• Possible washing gun breakdown as a result of
excessive moisture in the installation / switches of
the washing gun.
• Possible breakdown as a result of damaged control
cables in the washing hose (silicon cable insulation
damaged).
Provide for good, sucient ventilation where the machine is operated. Do not pull the washing hose exerting
excessive force (as this may result in damage to the rope that limits washing hose length and in failure / rupture
of the control cable insulation in the washing hose). Regularly inspect electrical installation for the condition of
insulation and earthing (especially the earth wire). From time to time, check the temporary electrical installation, i.e.
all sorts of extension cords or adapters. It is not allowed to use any double-wire or garden extension cords. Use only
extension cords in double rubber insulation designed for outdoor use.
Use additional grounding for the machine in the form of low-resistance earthing rod driven into the earth and
connected to the body of the machine with a copper rope minimum 4mm2 in order to dissipate electrostatic charge
build-up. Earth wire connection locations in the machine: as in Figures below.

One of conditions of proper protection against electric shock is that the machine’s electrical installations must be periodically
inspected by entities authorised thereto to. Pay special attention while you repair or adjust your machine, as most of its
elements are very hot, and you can get serious burns if you touch them directly. Since this is a pressure machine, be careful
when you operate or adjust it. In the event its pressure system is unsealed when in operation, you can undergo severe burns
from high-temperature steam. Persons who perform maintenance / adjustments at this machine should hold relative permits
and logbooks that allow them to carry out maintenance/ adjustments on thermal pressure equipment (Group G2 energy
licence) and electrical equipment (Group G1 energy licence).
Residual-current circuit-breaker with overcurrent protection protects the user against touch voltage and leakance. It is
absolutely necessary to test it as described in “Before each start-up” chapter by pressing the Test button in normal operation
mode. When the Test button is pressed, this safety device should be activated to disconnect power. In various machines’
residual-current circuit-breakers, the Test button is located as below.

If the burner is in the blocked mode, it will be indicated by non-ashing red colour
of the LED at the back-lit button on top of the burner. By pressing transparent
button on top of the burner for a short time only, the entire burner start, operation
and self-diagnosis control process is skipped. By pressing this transparent button
and holding it depressed for at least 3 seconds, the burner start and diagnosis
control process is commenced (the red light will ash fast). The Table below
explains some possible burner blockage cases, depending on error occurrence in
the burner start and self-diagnostics procedure. This information is available by
counting the number of ashes of the red LED (always the red one). The diagnosis
function can be discontinued by pressing the button on burner enclosure and
holding it depressed for at least 3 seconds.
