sysTeM cOncepT
The Titan 875’s system utilizes an internal combustion engine to provide the power
necessary to turn both the vacuum blower and the high pressure water pump.
The heat from the engine and blower exhausts is transferred to the high pressure water
in the nned tube heat exchanger and copper tube and shell of the system. Finally, the
chemical is injected into the pressurized water stream and the heated solution is delivered
to the cleaning tool.
Solution is recovered by the vacuum generated by the vacuum blower and is collected in
the recovery tank for proper disposal.

HydraMaster uses this WARNING symbol throughout the manual to warn of
possible injury or death.
This CAUTION symbol is used to warn of possible equipment damage.
This NOTICe symbol indicates that federal or state regulatory laws may apply,
and also emphasizes supplemental information.
1-5: General Information
Warnings and Cautions specic to the Titan 875 include the following:
During the operation of the truckmount many components are in motion. Never
touch any part of the truckmount that is in motion. Serious injury may result.
During the operation of the truckmount many surfaces will become extremely hot.
Never touch hot surfaces. Serious injury may result.
The operation of this truckmount can produce noise levels exceeding 85 decibels
to a distance of 10 ft. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA)
recommends the use of hearing protective equipment if a person is exposed
to an average of 85 decibels over an 8-hour period. Check with local and state
agencies concerning hearing conservation rules.
During the operation of the truckmount carbon monoxide and other toxic fumes
are produced. Position the vehicle so that any fumes produced will be directed
away from inhabited areas and any points of building entry (doors, windows, air
conditioning units, fans, etc.). Do not occupy the vehicle while the truckmount is
in operation. Serious injury may result.
During the operation of the truckmount, chemicals known to the State of California
to cause cancer, birth defects and other reproductive harm are produced by the
engine exhaust.
Never operate the truckmount with a portable gas container inside the vehicle.
Doing so will increase the risk of re and explosion. Serious injury or death may
result.
General Information: 1-6
Transporting a vented fuel container that presently contains, or has ever contained
in the past, a ammable liquid is strictly forbidden by HydraMaster and by federal
and state regulations. Doing so will increase the risk of re and explosion. Serious
injury or death may result.
Never smoke in or around the truckmount. Doing so will increase the risk of re
and explosion. Serious injury or death may result.
During the operation of the truckmount the exhaust system will become extremely
hot. Keep all ammable materials away from the truckmount exhaust system.
Failure to do so will increase the risk of re and explosion. Serious personal injury
and property damage may result.
Never operate the truckmount when the vehicle is tilted more than 10 degrees in
any direction. Doing so will result in improper lubrication of the internal components,
and will increase the risk serious component or engine damage.
Never perform cleaning operations when the truckmount engine is running at the
IDLe throttle position. Failure to do so will increase the risk of serious component
or engine damage.
Never operate the truckmount with the vehicle doors closed. Doing so results in
extremely high temperatures inside the vehicle and will lead to serious component
or engine damage.
Never use concentrated acids or solvents (including d-limonene) in the truckmount
water system or chemical system. Use of these products will cause serious
component damage.
1-7: General Information
Never operate the truckmount with a water hardness reading measuring 3.0
grains per gallon or higher. Using reading than 3.0 grains per gallon will cause
scale to build up inside the truckmount water system. Scale build up causes
serious component damage. Test all water prior to use and use water softening
equipment if necessary.
Never allow water to freeze inside the truckmount. Serious component damage
will occur. Perform all freeze guarding procedures as outlined in Section 4 of this
Owner’s Manual.
Many vehicles have critical components mounted directly below the oor that
can easily be damaged. Before drilling holes in the oor of the vehicle inspect
the underside of the vehicle for critical components. Failure to do so may result
in damage to the vehicle.
Use of the vacuum recovery system when stripping or otherwise removing wax
from oors is specically excluded as an approved use of the truckmount. Failure
to follow this exclusion may lead to component failure and will invalidate your
warranty.
Use of the vacuum recovery system for “dry cleaning”, without corresponding
solution application (i.e. duct cleaning), is specically excluded as an approved
use of the truckmount. Failure to follow this exclusion may lead to component
failure and will invalidate your warranty.
If concentrated acids or solvents are used to pre-treat surfaces before power
washing, do not recover them through the vacuum system. Failure to follow this
exclusion may lead to component failure and will invalidate your warranty.

Owner’s Manual
It is not required to change or adjust the fuel system due to altitude differences. The engine
electronic control system constantly monitors the barometric pressure and fuel mixture in
the exhaust. Using these 2 inputs, the engine can compensate for any elevation. This will
be done each time the engine is turned on.
LOcaL waTeR pRecauTIOns
The quality of water varies greatly. Many areas have an excess of minerals in the water
which results in what is commonly called “hard water.” These minerals tend to adhere to
the insides of heater coils and other parts of the machines causing damage and a loss of
cleaning effectiveness. This inuences the reliability and efciency of equipment in direct
proportion to the level of hardness.
hard water advisory
HydraMaster recognizes that any hard water deposits which might occur within the water
system of our truckmounts is a serious problem. The precision technology of truckmount
heat exchanger systems is intolerant of any foreign material. Hard water deposits will
ultimately decrease the performance of the system and are expected to seriously lower
the reliability of the machine.
To validate a machine’s warranty, HydraMaster requires that all machines operating in
designated “Hard Water Areas” (3.0 grains or more per gallon) be tted with a water
softening system, or a properly installed magnetic-type descaler must be used and
maintained. Periodic descaling or acid-rinsing alone is not adequate in these areas.
HydraMaster does not recommend any particular type or brand; however, the relative
effectiveness of some types of magnetic descalers or softeners may require additional
periodic use of descaling agents.
HydraMaster also recommends, in the strongest possible terms, that machines in all areas
be tted with a water softening system for improved operation and reliability.
Failure to take appropriate measures to prevent scale build up can result in
system failure and loss of warranty on affected parts.
1-15: General Information
hard water area Map
The hard water map, shown in Figure 1-1, denes hard water areas in the continental
United States which compromise uid related components such as hoses, ttings, heaters,
pumps, valves and water-cooled engines. For other countries, hard water area maps can
be obtained from geological societies.
hard water Map of continental united statesFigure 1-1.
The map shown in Figure 1-1 is provided for general reference only. Water
hardness in your geographical location should be conrmed by testing.
General Information: 1-16
water softener
Cleaning efciency and equipment life is increased, chemical use decreased, and the
appearance of cleaned carpets enhanced when water softeners are incorporated in hard
water areas. HydraMaster strongly urges the use of water softener units with the Titan 875
in areas exceeding 3.0 grains per gallon.
Failure to use a water softener in these areas will invalidate the machine’s warranty.
Referring to the hard water area map shown Figure 1-1, determine the quality of water
in your area and take immediate action if the water hardness exceeds 3.0 grains per
gallon.
The relatively low cost of a water softener service is more than made up for by an increased
life of machine parts, reduced chemical costs and continued cleaning efciency. The
water softener will also increase the effectiveness of the cleaning chemicals, therefore
less chemical will be needed.
Contact a water softener distributor in your area for information on the rental of a simple
water treatment unit to carry in your truck. be sure to charge the water softener in
accordance with the capability of the softener.
For example: If the softener will treat 900 gallons of water and the machine uses an
average of 30 gallons/hour, for an average of 5 hours a day, this equals 150 gallons per
day. In 6 days the machine would use 900 gallons of water. Therefore, the softener would
need to be charged every 6 working days for maximum softening.
1-17: General Information
waste water Disposal advisory
There are laws in most communities prohibiting the dumping of recovered “gray” water
from carpet cleaning in any place but a sanitary treatment system.
The cleaning rinse water, recovered into your unit’s vacuum tank, contains materials
such as detergents, and must be safely processed before entering streams, rivers and
reservoirs.
In most cases, an acceptable method of waste water disposal is to discharge into a
municipal sewage treatment system after rst ltering out solid material such as carpet
ber. Access to the sanitary system can be obtained through a toilet, laundry drain, RV
dump, etc. Permission should rst be obtained from any concerned party or agency.
One disposal method which usually complies with the law is to accumulate the waste
water and haul it to an appropriate dump site. Another solution to the disposal problem is
to equip your Titan 875 with an Automatic Pump-Out System (APO). These systems are
designed to remove waste water from the extractor’s recovery system and actively pump
the water through hoses to a suitable disposal drain.
HydraMaster makes an APO System which can be ordered with new equipment or
installed later.
When properly congured, the systems will continuously monitor the level of waste water
and pump it out simultaneously with the cleaning operation. The hidden benet of this
process is that the technician does not have to stop his/her cleaning to empty the recovery
tank.
IN ACCORDANCe WITH ePA, STATe AND LOCAL LAWS, DO NOT DISPOSe OF
WASTe WATeR INTO GUTTeRS, STORM DRAINS, STReAMS, ReSeRVOIRS,
eTC.
The penalties for non-compliance can be serious. Always check local laws and
regulations to be sure you are in compliance.

2 - Installation Information
FueL puMp InsTaLLaTIOn guIDeLInes
general
The 1.6L GM engine on the Titan 875 is fuel injected. This is a high pressure system and
requires approved components and hose to operate within the specications. The average
operating pressure at the fuel rail should be 40 - 50 psi. This pressure is controlled via
an pressure manifold that is placed inline with the fuel pump. The fuel system should be
hooked up in the following order:
Failure to use the specied fuel hose can result in equipment failure or bodily
injury. Fuel hose specication: Fuel injection hose carb no. C-4-06-002 SAE
30R9 180 psi.
Failure to use this hose can result in non-compliance nes set forth by the EPA.
The fuel lter must be on the outlet side of the pump, failure to do so may cause
the engine to run poorly.
It is important that the order of the fuel supply components are installed correctly,
failure to do so may cause the engine or fuel components may not function
properly or be damaged.
All components should be replaced with approved OeM parts.
2-1: Installation Information
The fuel pump has a “domed” end and an end with the electrical terminations. The “domed”
end is the inlet of the pump and the side with the terminations is the output.
The fuel pressure manifold has three ports. The side with the two ports is the return and
the inlet, the side with the single port is the output. The dual port side has one connection
almost in the center of the block; this is the inlet. The connection that is slightly offset is
the return to the fuel tank.
The electrical plug must be positioned at the top when the manifold is installed.
The supplied fuel quick connects are required per the engine certication requirements.
The fuel hose is specic to the Titan 875, this is required by the EPA to maintain the
engine certication as well as the pressure requirements.
Locating components
The Titan 875 is equipped with a fuel pump mounting bracket assembly. This bracket
should be located as close to the fuel source as possible. It should be oriented so the
fuel pressure manifold plug is oriented upwards (see Figure 2-1).
