1-3: General Information
2 - Operating Instructions
Your DriMaster II HiFlo Stainless Steel Upholstery Cleaning Tool has been engineered
using the latest and most sophisticated technology available to produce the nest
upholstery cleaning results possible. Despite this, it remains only a tool of the upholstery
cleaning trade and can produce only as a good a job as the person operating it.
HydraMaster strongly recommends attending an Institute of Inspection, Cleaning
and Restoration Certication (IICRC) approved Upholstery Cleaning course as
soon as possible and to always follow the IICRC guidelines when cleaning.
OPTIONAL ACCESSORY HANDLE ASSEMBLY
The DriMaster II HiFlo Stainless Steel tool can be equipped with an optional accessory
handle (purchased separately) to increase comfort and control during difcult or extended
repetitious use of the upholstery tool.
Remove the two screws, nuts, and washers 1.
found on the handle grip portion of the tool
(Figure 2-1). These parts will be reused in
fastening the handle.
Attach the accessory handle as shown in 2.
Figure 2-2. The original shorter screws, nuts,
and washers are used on the upper handle.
The longer supplied screws, nuts and washers
are used to connect the handle to the tool
body.

BEGIN CLEANING
Solution Bar Jet
Solution Control Knob
Solution Quick
Connect
Vac Hose Manifold
Do not use the DriMaster II HiFlo Stainless Steel Upholstery Tool on a machine
exceeding 14” Hg vacuum and 500 psi solution pressure. Personal injury could
result.
Attach the solution hose to the solution quick connect. A 1 ½” - 2” vacuum hose can 1.
be attached to the vac hose manifold (see Figure 2-3).
Figure 2-3. Attach Solution Hose and Adjust Water Volume
Adjust the water volume by turning the solution control knob. Turning the knob 2.
counterclockwise increase the water volume; turning the knob clockwise decreases
the water volume. The amount of water volume you need will vary with the type of
machine you are cleaning with and the type of material you are cleaning.
To begin adjustment, make sure the cleaning machine is running and both vacuum 3.
and solution hoses are connected.
Slowly open the solution control knob until water is owing across the entire bar jet 4.
(without overspray).
Operating Instructions: 2-2
When the solution knob is turned toward the
“HiFlo” position, the water will form a sheet across
the solution bar jet (see Figure 2-4).
The amount of vacuum and pressure produced
by your machine will determine the overspray
on the solution bar jet. The patented solution
bar jet makes a trigger valve unnecessary.
Figure 2-4. Turning Knob to
“HiFlo” Position Forms Sheet of
Do not touch the solution bar jet during
Water Across Bar Jet
operation or immediately afterward; doing so
may cause severe burns!
When cleaning stairs, do not allow the tool to come into contact with the tack strip
along the edges of the stairs. The tool’s cleaning surface will be damaged by the
tack strip. Equipment damage such as this is not covered by warranty.
It may be necessary to periodically clean the inside of the tool, hose and manifold.
Debris can build up over time, restricting the vacuum ow (see Figure 3-6).

3 - Tool Maintenance
REMOVING AND RE-INSTALLING THE CLEAR WINDOW COVER
Remove vacuum hose cuff from 1. DriMaster II HiFlo Stainless Steel Upholstery Tool
and disconnect the solution hose quick connect as shown in Figure 3-1.
Lightly heating the “cuff” with a heat gun will make the cuff easier to remove and
install.
Remove the solution control knob by removing the 8/32” Allen head screw as shown 2.
in Figure 3-2.
Figure 3-1. Remove Tool from
Hose
Loosen, but do not remove, the valve retention nut (see arrow in 3. Figure 3-3).
Remove all screws from both sides of the tool (see 4. Figure 3-3) and carefully separate
the tool halves (see Figure 3-4).

body.
To re-install the clear window cover, slide it 6.
into one half of the tool body (see Figure 3-5).
Then slide the other half of the body into the
window.
The clear window has grooves on either side that slide
onto the edges of the cutouts in the tool bodies.
Figure 3-5. Re-install Clear

The wear plates must be aligned and slid onto the tool half at the same time as
the cover.
The window cover may come out if not installed properly.
Continue to assemble the two halves of the tool together, with the clear window 7.
being captured in the cutouts. Careful attention must be paid when sliding the two
body halves together.
Re-install the screws.8.
Tighten the valve retention nut. Do not 9.
overtighten.
CLEANING THE SOLUTION BAR JET
The solution bar jet needs to be cleaned with a .020”
feeler gauge.
Slide the feeler gauge into the small slot.1.
Gently slide the gauge back and forth to clear 2.
any debris from the opening (see Figure 3-6).
Figure 3-6. Clean the
Solution Bar Jet
Use only a feeler gauge to clean the slot in the bar
jet. Use of any other implement (paper clip, knife blade) may damage the opening
and seriously reduce the cleaning effectiveness of the upholstery tool.
Tool Maintenance: 3-2
HydraMaster recommends you clean the lter
cartridge and orice plate on a periodic basis
to eliminate hard water deposit buildup. Both
components are conveniently located in the
solution quick connect subassembly.
Disassemble the solution quick connect to gain access
to the lter cartridge and orice plate (see Figure 3-7
and Figure 3-8).
CLEANING THE FILTER CARTRIDGE
AND ORIFICE PLATE
Remove the lter cartridge and orice plate, place 1.
them in a cup full of white vinegar and soak for
30 minutes.
Clean the orice plate’s opening with a wooden 2.
skewer or similar tool such as a plastic pick.
Do not use a metal object to clean the opening of
the orice plate; doing so can damage the plate.
Remove both parts from the vinegar and 3.
thoroughly rinse them with clear water.
Re-assemble the solution quick connect, re-4.
