2A. Water Supply & Chemical Mixing– Manual Fill:

Proportioning Valve

Chemical Feed Hose

• Pour up to 12 gallons of hot water into the solution tank at the front of the machine. The water

temperature cannot exceed 130°°°°F.

• Measure and add the appropriate amount of the desired liquid chemical to the water in the solution tank.

The amount of chemical will vary depending on the type of chemical used, the amount of water in the
tank, and the material being cleaned; consult the chemical packaging for specific mixture ratios.

• Powdered chemicals should be dissolved in water before adding to the water in the solution tank.

Pour appropriate amount of hot water into

Add appropriate amount of chemical to water

2B. Water Supply & Chemical Dilution – Optional Auto-Fill System:

• The chemical dilution rate is controlled by the metering tip, and the dilution rate can only be changed by

changing the metering tip (See “How to Change the Metering Tip” on Page 10 for instructions.)

Chemical Feed Setup:

• Remove the chemical feed hose from the solution tank.

• Place the end of the hose into a container of liquid chemical.

• If the tip is removed, and the proportioning system operated with no tip, the dilution rate will be 8:1 (the

equivalent to adding 16-1/4oz of chemical to each gallon of water.)

• The standard tip used with the M100 is the turquoise tip with a dilution rate of 256:1. This means that for

each gallon of water flowing into the machine, 1/2 ounce of chemical will be added.

• If a fresh water rinse with no chemical is desired, simply leave the chemical feed hose inside the

solution tank.

How to Change the Metering Tip:

CHEMICAL DILUTION RATES

Proportioning Valve

• Remove the chemical feed hose from the barb on the side of the proportioning valve.

• Unscrew and remove the old tip.

• Screw in the proper tip for your chemical tip and place the hose back on the barb

Turquoise Tip
Dilution 256 - 1

Red Tip
Dilution 85 - 1

Metering Tip Kit – PDE001

Metering Tip Kit (Hydro-Force Item# PDE001) contains 14 different colored metering tips, allowing
dilution rates from 11:1 up to 427:1. Refer to the chart below to select the tip that meets the dilution rate for
your chemical application.

• For example: if you require 1-1/2 ounces of chemical per gallon of water, change to the red metering tip

with the dilution rate of 85:1.

• The dilution rates are based on chemicals with water-like viscosity. Thicker (more viscous) chemicals will

dilute at a different rate.

• For powdered chemicals, a liquid concentrate must be made. Mix the concentrate according to the

manufacturer’s directions, and then select the appropriate metering tip.

• Contact your distributor or Hydro-Force if you have questions about your chemical.

3. Connection of Solution Hose:

Connect the high pressure solution hose to the solution outlet (female quick connect on the front of the
machine). Connect the other end of the hose to the male quick connect on the cleaning tool. When you are
ready to start cleaning, turn the solution pump switch to the ON position The Flojet solution pump, standard
on the M100 is self priming and usually additional priming procedures are not required.
If the pump does not prime by itself, or if flow is low or unsteady, check the hose from the solution tank to
the pump (as well as the inline filter) for clogging, kinks, or restrictions. Clean or replace hose and/or filter
and repeat the priming procedure. Check the jets and filters on the wand or other tool for flow restrictions
that can affect priming.
If you are having trouble with the pump, refer to the trouble shooting guide or contact your distributor for
advice or assistance.

5. Optional Auto Pump-out System - Connection of Pump-out Hose:

The pump-out hose is a 50’ section of 3/4” garden hose.

• Remove the cap from the pump-out outlet fitting on the back of the machine.

• Connect the pump-out hose to the outlet fitting.

• Place the other end of the hose in a commode or drain connected to the sanitary sewer system.

• Secure hose end to prevent movement during pumping.

Use defoamer to prevent foam build-up in recovery tank during cleaning and to keep foam/moisture
from entering vacuums.

When ready to begin cleaning, turn the waste pump switch to the ON position.

• Do not turn on waste pump switch unless pump-out hose is connected and has been routed

to a proper drain.

Pump-out Hose – AH65
3/4” id X 50’ with M-F Garden Hose Fittings

Connect the Female Garden Hose Fitting end of the
Pump-out Hose to the outlet fitting on the back of the
recovery tank. Place the other end of the pump-out
hose in a sanitary drain.

5A. Waste Tank Shutoff:

If not equipped with an Auto Pump-out System or not using the waste pump-out, the pump-out hose does
not need to be connected. When the recovery tank fills during cleaning, the float ball assembly in the vacuum
inlet filter will rise and will automatically shut off the vacuum air flow to prevent the recovery tank from
overfilling and waste water from getting into the vacuums. When this occurs:

• Immediately shut off the vacuum switches.

• Drain the recovery tank.

o Turn off the pump switch while draining the tank.
o Turn pump switch back upon resumption of cleaning.

• Close the drain valve and turn the vacuum switches back on when ready to resume cleaning.

If the pump-out or vacuum shutoff is not working properly, refer to the trouble shooting guide or contact
your distributor for advice or assistance.

Draining the Recovery Tank

6. Pressure Adjustment:

The pressure of the M100 is not adjustable. The pump controls the pressure internally and has a pressure

switch that shuts the pump off when the tool is not being sprayed and the pressure builds up past 120psi. The
maximum pump pressure is 120psi, but the actual pressure attained is dependent on the amount of water flow
at the tool. The wand jets included with the M100 carpet wand were selected to deliver the optimum balance
between flow and pressure from the solution pump.

The only way to change the water flow and pressure delivered to the surface being cleaned is to change the
jets. If you feel the need to change the jets:

• Smaller jets and lower flow will allow for higher pressure at the tool. (Up to 120psi.)

• Larger jets and higher flow will lower the pressure attained at the tool.

The number found on the face of the jet, such as 8006, 9505 or 11004, states the size and shape of the jet
orifice. The first two or in some cases three numbers (80, 95 & 110) represent the spray angle. The last two or
in some cases three numbers (06, 05 & 04) represent the orifice size. The orifice size number represents the
flow through that jet at 40psi in tenths of a gallon per minute. Thus a small orifice such as 04 will flow

0.40gpm at 40psi. A larger orifice such as 06 will flow 0.60gpm at 40psi. (See chart below.)

Different jets with the same spray angle (8001, 8003 & 8004) can have different orifice sizes.
Different jets with the same orifice size (80015, 95015 & 110015) can have different spray angles.

Using a jet that is too small may cause the pump to pulsate or cycle by causing the pressure switch to engage
while the tool is being sprayed. If this occurs, replace the jet with a larger jet or contact your distributor for
advice or assistance.

Choose the jets that will meet the flow rate at your desired pressure and have the spray pattern suited to your
tool and type of cleaning. (The maximum flow rate of the M100 AP120 pump is 1.30gpm.)

If maintaining pressure becomes a problem, refer to the trouble shooting guide or contact your distributor for
advice or assistance.

Shutdown Procedures:

• If using the auto-fill system, turn the water supply off before finishing each job. This will allow use of the

water and chemical already in the tank, and will reduce the amount of excess water to be disposed of later.

• When finished cleaning, turn off all switches.

• If the auto-fill system was used and there is still water in the solution tank, push the float down to release

the water inlet hose pressure before disconnecting the hose from the faucet. Disconnect the water inlet
hose from the quick-connect on the front of the machine.

• Disconnect the solution hose and vacuum hose from the cleaning tool. Pull valve trigger to release

pressure from the hose before disconnecting solution hose from cleaning tool.

• If used disconnect the Hydro-Filter from the vacuum hoses and clean

the filter as needed. Replacement filter bags are available (AC11A.)

• Disconnect the vacuum hose and solution hose from the machine.

• If water remains in the solution tank, use the vacuum

and vacuum the excess water from the tank.

• If the auto-fill system was utilized, place the chemical feed

hose back into the solution tank.

• If the waste pump-out system was used:

o Turn the waste pump switch “ON” to pump out any remaining water from the recovery tank.
o Turn switch off, remove the pump-out hose from the outlet fitting and replace the cap.
o Roll up hose toward drain to remove remaining water from hose.
o Connect ends of hose together to prevent dirty water from dripping from hose during transport.

• Disconnect the power cord from the outlet and from the machine.

• Remove the float shutoff assembly from

the recovery tank and clean filter as needed.
Replace shutoff assembly and tank lid.

• Drain any remaining water from the recovery tank

and dispose in sanitary drain. Do not use the same

CLEAN CHEMICAL FEED FILTER & FOOT VALVE:
With optional Auto-Fill System Only

The Filter & Foot Valve is on the end of the chemical feed hose that is placed in the chemical jug as part of
the optional Auto-Fill chemical feed system.

Regularly examine the filter and clean as needed.

To test the Foot Valve:

• Remove the Filter & Foot Valve from the end of the chemical feed hose and rinse in fresh water.

• Blow through the valve from the filter side of the barb.

o If the Foot Valve is functioning, air should move freely from the filter side, but will not flow from

the barb side of the filter.

o If valve is not functional, clean or replace as needed.

Heavy chemical build-up can be removed with a mild acid rinse and/or the use of a brush and compressed
air.

CLEAN VACUUM SHUTOFF ASSEMBLY SCREEN:

Inside the recovery tank, on top of the stand pipe, is the Vacuum Shutoff Assembly. It functions to prevent
debris and water from being sucked into the vacuum motors. Operating the M100 without the Vacuum
Shutoff Assembly or with a poorly maintained assembly will greatly decrease the life of the vacuum motors
and will void the warranty.
If debris builds up on this filter, it will reduce the vacuum air flow and may cause a significant decrease in the
rate of water recovery. If debris prevents the float ball from moving or seating inside the assembly, it may not
stop the airflow when the tank fill with water, and the water will be sucked into the vacuums and blown out
the exhaust. Use defoamer to prevent foam or moisture from entering vacuums.
To clean:

• Twist to loosen and pull the assembly off of the stand pipe.

• Pull fibers and lint off and rinse with clean water.

• Push the assembly back onto the stand pipe and replace the recovery tank lid.

Re

placement Filter Screen:

AC10C

When used with the M100, build-up of debris in the filter screen of the optional Hydro-Filter II will reduce
the vacuum air flow and may cause a significant decrease in water recovery. A torn filter screen will allow
debris past the filter and into the recovery tank. This debris can clog the Waste Pump and the Vacuum
Shutoff Assembly. The Hydro-Filter II must be examined and cleaned regularly to keep the M100

functioning properly:

• Grasp and turn the lid counterclockwise to open the Hydro-Filter II lid.

• Remove the filter screen. Examine the screen and clean or replace as needed.

• Rinse the body of the Hydro-Filter II with clean water.

Drain water from Recovery

CLEAN RECOVERY TANK DRAIN

ADAPTER

Debris and sand accumulation in the drain valve can damage the valve or prevent it from closing completely.
This will result in dirty water leaking from the valve. Use of the Hydro-Filter and regular cleaning of the
recovery tank will help prevent this, but occasionally the drain valve will require cleaning or replacement.

Drain the recovery tank before attempting to service the drain valve.

• Unscrew the nuts and remove the four bolts holding the valve assembly to the flange attached to the

recovery tank. Unless the flange is damaged, it does not have to be removed from the tank, even when
replacing the drain valve.

• Separate the valve body, outlet adapter and gaskets from the flange.

Storage Prep and Freeze Protection Procedures:

Your Olympus M100 must be protected from freezing. Freezing can cause serious damage to the pump,
pump-out, auto-fill float valve, and any other component containing water. If the M100 is transported or
stored in freezing temperatures, the following procedures should be performed.
ALSO, if the M100 is stored for an extended period of time, the following procedure should be performed to
prevent the pump seals from drying out.

1. In a separate container mix 1/2 gallon of water with 1/2 gallon of automotive radiator anti-freeze.

(Ethylene glycol type). Mix well and pour into the solution tank.

2. Connect the pump prime hose to the solution outlet (female quick connect) and perform the pump

priming procedure, directing the flow back into the solution tank. When the pump is primed, turn the
pump off and disconnect the priming hose.

3. If equipped with Auto-Fill (If not go to step #5); connect the HP solution hose to the solution outlet

(female quick connect.) Connect the opposite end of the HP solution hose to the Auto-Fill inlet (male
quick connect.) Leave the chemical feed hose in the solution tank and ensure the check valve filter is
submerged in the anti-freeze solution. To speed the process the metering tip can be removed. Be sure
float is high enough and fluid level is low enough that float valve does not close.

4. Turn the solution pump switch to the ON position. Allow the anti-freeze to circulate for 5-10 minutes.

Mix and add more anti-freeze solution as needed. Make sure end of chemical feed hose stays submerged
in the anti-freeze solution. This will assure that the anti-freeze will be drawn into the proportioning valve.
Then turn the solution pump off.

5. Connect any cleaning tools that will be stored with the M100. Turn the solution pump switch to the ON

position. Direct tool spray back into the solution tank or into a bucket. Turn the solution pump off and
repeat for all tools to be protected.

6. Turn the solution pump switch to the OFF position.

7. Use the vacuum hose to vacuum the remaining anti-freeze solution out of the solution tank and bucket.

8. If equipped with Auto Pump-Out (If not go to step #10); remove the cap from the waste-pump out

outlet fitting on the back of the machine. Connect a hose to a drain or hold a bucket up to the fitting to
catch the pump-out flow.

9. Remove the lid from the recovery tank. Turn the Waste Pump switch to the ON position and lift the float

switch to engage the pump-out. Lower the float and turn off the Waste Pump Switch as soon as you see
anti-freeze flowing from the outlet fitting or hose.

10. Drain the remaining anti-freeze solution from the recovery tank and the machine is ready for storage.

RETURNING THE M100 TO SERVICE AFTER STORAGE OR
FREEZE PROTECTION:

To return the M100 to service, the anti-freeze must be flushed from the machine. Flush the anti-freeze out of
the machine by repeating the procedures above using fresh water in place of anti-freeze.
