JUNIOR STAR

1. PREFACE

Dear Client,

We would like to congratulate you on your choice.

With the goal of improving and continually updating production by always offering innovative products,

TECNOVAP has studied, designed and created the CHATTANOOGA JUNIOR STAR; a combined

machine for cleaning which brings together the power of steam and the force of vacuuming.

This product was studied in collaboration with 20 years of experience from cleaning experts. It is custom-

built and equipped with a dependable stainless steel boiler with automatic refilling system which allows it to

produce a powerful and continuous supply of steam (24/24 hours). The JUNIOR STAR model is also

equipped with a separate detergent tank which enables the injection of a detergent with hot water at 90-

125°C.

With the power of steam, meaning ecological cleaning power, Tecnovap has combined a powerful vacuum

able to pick up solids and liquids.

The JUNIOR STAR is the ideal solution when it comes to cleaning and disinfecting. With the various

accessories available, it cleans, disinfects, and removes dirt eliminating completely even the bacterial flora

hidden in those areas most difficult to reach.

Pay careful attention to the following instructions which will be helpful in operating your JUNIOR STAR.

IMPORTANT

BEFORE USING THE STEAM GENERATOR CAREFULLY READ THIS MANUAL IN ALL ITS PARTS

THE MANUFACTURER RESERVES THE RIGHT TO BRING ANY MODIFICATION OR IMPROVEMENT,

6. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

(a) After opening the packaging box, fix the handle bar (18) to the rear support plate and tighten into place

with the hand wheel screws (19).

(b) Insert the plug (7) into the outlet (17) and verify that the vacuum power switch (2) is in ON position.

and appropriately diluted detergent (max. 2 liters) in the detergent tank (9 with yellow cap) of the

machine.

(d) If using detergent please follow the specific instructions: 1/5 liter detergent for every 2 liters

water (about 10% is the detergent percentage), making sure to fill in first the detergent to obtain

a better mixing.

(e) Insert the plug (21) into an electrical outlet, making sure that the voltage and the amperage correspond

with those printed on the plate located under the machine.

WARNING

WHEN THE WATER TANK IS EMPTY, WITH THE LOW WATER INDICATOR (15) ON, ADD WATER

(MAX. 4 LITERS) TO THE WATER TANK (9).

PLEASE NOTE: THIS OPERATION CAN BE CARRIED OUT WITHOUT SWITCHING OFF THE

MACHINE.

Refilling of detergent:

Once the detergent tank is empty, proceed as following:

1. Add diluted detergent in the tank (8).

2. Position the minimum steam adjustment switch (36) and activate the steam command switch (34) while

pushing the detergent switch (35) until detergent comes out of the accessory.

3. The machine is now ready for use.

6.1. OPERATING THE JUNIOR STAR WITH KIT RADAMES

Insert the vacuum hose (30) into vacuum hose outlet (6) and the steam plug (32) into the steam outlet (22)

found on the top right of the machine. Push until the latches (5 and 31) lock into place.

Activate the power switch (12) and the boiler switch (13) for the production of steam and wait

approximately 8 minutes until the green "ready steam" indicator (14) lights up indicating the boiler has

reached operating pressure. The switches (36,37 and 38) located on the handle should be in OFF position.

Positioning the switches (36 and 37) on the handgrip will regulate the steam flow as follows: switch (36)

minimum flow, switch (37) medium flow, switches (36 and 37) maximum flow. Use the steam command

switch (34) to activate steam flow.

The vacuum switch (38) activates the vacuum and can be used simultaneously with steam.

The detergent switch (35) enables you to inject detergent with the steam by activating it for a few seconds

at a time to avoid excess liquid with the steam.

Pag. 8

TECNOVAP CHATTANOOGA JUNIOR STAR

To clean with the combination of steam, injection of detergent and vacuum suction, choose the accessory

best suited for the job:

The multi-purpose floor tool (51): with appropriate inserts (53,54). Inserts are locked into place by sliding

the latches (52) to the OPEN position and hold the insert in place applying a little pressure while sliding the

latches in BLOK position. Remember that the command switches on the handle (36-38) must be on OFF

position.

Turbo lance steam/vac (42): to be used by itself with the small round brushes (43-46, 49) or with steam

plunger (47) and steam scraper (48) according to the cleaning job to be executed.

If necessary, attach the extension tubes (41) and lock them into place using the clamping units (40) in

BLOCK position. Only one tube may be used if desired.

When finished cleaning, it is recommended to vacuum approximately 3-5 liters of clean water to rinse the

inside of the hose (33) and the suction conduits. Wash and dry all accessories used. Remove the vacuum

drum (4) and, after emptying and rinsing it, let it dry before storing it away.

6.2. OPERATING THE JUNIOR STAR WITH KIT JULY

Insert steam plug (32) into the steam outlet (22) found on the top right of the machine. Push until the latch

(31) locks into place.

Activate the power switch (12) and the boiler switch (13) for the production of steam and wait

approximately 8 minutes until the green "ready steam" indicator (14) lights up indicating the boiler has

reached operating pressure. The switches (36,37 and 38) located on the handle should be in OFF position.

Activating the switches (36 and 37) on the handgrip will regulate the steam flow as follows: switch (36)

minimum flow, switch (37) medium flow, switches (36 and 37) maximum flow. Use the steam command

switch to activate steam flow.

Insert the steam lance (71) by sliding the latch to the OPEN position, lock into place and then slide the

latch into BLOCK position.

Follow the same procedure in attaching the rectangular (72) or the triangular brush (74) which can be

covered with an absorbing cloth by using the gripper (73) to hold the cloth in place. This is a recommended

use to clean delicate surfaces (such as precious wood for ex.) or vertical surfaces (in tiles for ex.) etc. The

cloth is acting as dirt "extractor" in this case.

7. MAINTENANCE

ATTENTION

DISCONNECT FROM ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY BEFORE CARRYING OUT USER

MAINTENANCE. IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT BOILER MAINTENANCE IS CARRIED OUT WHEN THE

EQUIPMENT HAS COOLED DOWN. (I.E. SWITCHED OFF FOR AT LEAST 5 HOURS)

7.1 MAINTENANCE OF THE STEAM GENERATOR

ELIMINATING SCALE RESIDUE FROM THE BOILER

We suggest cleaning the boiler after every 100 hours of use, or also if the machine has remained unused

for a long period of time.

Fill the water tank (9), with about 4 liters of water, placing a recipient container under the machine and

remove the boiler drain cap (23) underneath the machine. Then switch on the machine activating the

power switch only (12) (the boiler switch (13) has to be in OFF position). Wait until the "low water" indicator

(15) lights up which indicates that the internal cleaning of the boiler has been completed. Unplug the power

cord (21) from the electric outlet and proceed by replacing the drain cap (23). Once again plug the power

cord (21) into the electric outlet and activate the power switch only (12). It is recommended to activate also

the command switch (36) for minimum steam on the handgrip to release the air contained in the empty

boiler. Wait for the completed cycle of refilling from the pump (approx. 3 min.).

The maintenance of the boiler is completed; proceed with the using instructions as described in chapter 6.

We suggest to empty the water tank (9) completely if the machine will not be used for a long period of time.

7.2. MAINTENANCE OF THE VACUUM CLEANER

The vacuum cleaner of the JUNIOR STAR model does not require any specific maintenance.

7.3. MAINTENANCE OF THE ACCESSORIES

Grease occasionally joints on the accessories and hose extensions.
