6 Before Starting

6.1 Transport

Before transporting the unit, ensure that it has been unplugged from the power socket.
Make sure that it is packed correctly in order to avoid accidental damage.

Be sure to check for any transport damage when unpacking the goods. Note
down any damage if found.

6.2 Installation

Open the box, remove the packing materials, and carefully lift out the device and
accessories. Check the included accessories.
The device must stand on a steady and even surface or may be mounted to a stable wall
by means of the mounting kit. If mounting the unit on the wall, make sure that the wall is
strong enough to take the weight.
See 6.4 Mounting instructions fastening set for wall mounting Wasi-Steam Classic.

Install the device in a place where it will not block the working area and the
functionality (take the dimensions into account).
Please see that the louvres are not set because air circulation (heat flow) is
absolutely necessary.

Do not install the unit outdoors or in places without proper ventilation.

Before start-up, be sure the device reaches room temperature.

7
6.3 Storage

If the unit is to be stored for an extended period, protect it from moisture and dust.
The unit location is very important when it comes to workplace safety, even if it is only to
be set up there for a short period. The room should be dry, well ventilated and vibration-
free. An even temperature and wooden supports also help.
The unit should not be stored or set up outdoors.

7 Start-up/ Installation

Before you use the steam cleaner, please put on heat-resistant gloves and wear
safety goggles.

Switch the unit off if it will not be used for an extended period.

Note: Optimal and fast pressurization is carried out only if the adjusting knob is in the
"max." position, since the heater with this is activated via a push button switch, i.e.
immediately at the start of every blasting action. In case of the pressure choice options (1-
4), the heater is activated via a thermostat, i.e. even in case of a massive decrease in
pressure it may take several minutes until the heater is activated due to residual heat of
the container for example. Therefore this setting is preferable only in case of occasional
work.

13
 ● Open the screw top of the container carefully while pressing down the screw top
● Fill with at most 2 litres of water
● Operation with distilled / softened water is possible and is recommended
● Tighten container screw top sturdily again (hand-screwed)
● Connect power plug
● Switch on main switch (4)
● Choose pressure range from 1 – 5 according to the scale or choose max. with
adjusting knob (3)
● Heat-up phase approx. 30 minutes (full container).
Briefly deaerate the device after approx. 15 minutes by operating the steam gun.
If the heating light (2) turns off, the device is ready for use. Now steam blasting via
the gun is possible by operating the pushbutton until the temperature delimiter
activates (button under black cap on the right side of the device) and the red light
(1) lights up.
Then proceed by referring to point 8.1.1 "refill water").

8 Operation

8.1 General Operating Instructions

All instructions for using the unit, whether in verbal or written form, are based on our own
experience and experimentation and can only be regarded as guidelines.

To avoid an unintentional interruption of use (cooling down period

approx. 45 min.), the device should be refilled every morning in a cold
state (take fill level into account, or else the container will be
overfilled).

Note: Do not refill more than 2 litres of water, if the red light (water
shortage) lights up (otherwise the container will be overfilled).
Operation with distilled / softened water is possible and is
recommended .

14
 8.1.1 Refill
● After the red light (1) lights up, wait approx. 45 min. (cooling down
period) until you refill again, or else there is a risk of scalding as long as
the temperature remains above 100°C.
● Container must be pressureless; produce a pressure balance via the jet
nozzle by operating the steam gun.
● Only now open the screw top of the container carefully while pressing
down the screw top.
● Refill water (2 litres at most).
● Operation with distilled / softened water is possible and is recommended.
● Fully tighten the screw top of the container again (hand-screwed).
● Switch on the temperature delimiter (button under black cap on the right
side of device) again as follows; first unscrew the black cap, then push in
the pushbutton, the red light (1) goes out and the device heats up to the
adjusted pressure. Finally, screw the black cap back on.
● Heat-up phase (see p. 14).
● Operational; i.e. steam blasting via the gun by operating the pushbutton is
possible until the temperature delimiter activates again and the red light
(1) comes on.

10 Care and Maintenance

10.1 Cleaning

Disconnect the power plug before starting any maintenance work.

The identification plate has always to be kept in easily legible condition and has
not to be removed.

Remove external dirt from time to time with some form of cold cleaner.
Use only cold cleaners to avoid damaging the paintwork or removing the lettering.
The equipment should be cleaned at regular intervals to ensure trouble-free
operation.
It requires only normal cleaning (sponge, damp cloth, mild detergent) and no further
chemical additives.

Please see 10.2.1 „Decalcification“

17
10.2 Maintenance

The Wasi-Steam Classic should, depending on frequency of use, but at least twice a year,
be decalcified in accordance with the following instructions. Depending on water hardness
a more frequent decalcification could be required. Operation with distilled / softened water
is possible and is recommended. As a basic principle, the device must always be kept
clean.

10.2.1 Decalcification
• Turn off the main switch and unplug the power plug
• Empty / pour out container in cold state
• Mix approx. 50 cc lime scale remover with 2 litres of water and fill into the device
(depending on lime content, the ratio can be increased)
• Heating regulator must be set to less than 1 bar
• Close tank cap
• Switch on the device and let it heat up briefly until the green light goes out
• Turn off the device and allow the lime scale remover to react for approx 8 hours
(lime remover should not react longer than 12 hours)
• Pour out the solution and rinse with clear water (approx. 1 litre) at least two times by
shaking the device
• Refill only maximal 2 litres of water (otherwise the tank could overfill)
• Operation with distilled / softened water is possible and is recommended
• The steam cleaner is now ready for operation

10.3 Repairs

Servicing or repairs to the unit has only to be carried out by qualified technicians.
Only original spare parts are to be used. Responsibility for the product is voided
