SOURCE: Eureka Hotshot Enviro steamer

Remove the 2 screws on the bottom of the steamer, that holds the center panel on. (Not the screws that hold the whole bottom.) Use a needle the clear the steam holes. Soak the panel in white vinegar for a couple of hours and scrub with aa brush to remove the lime calcium deposits. Check the center hole that goes into the steam and make sure it is clear. Reattach the panel. If the panel does not fit snuggly (either end does not contact the base panel, add two more screws about an inch in from either side. I used stainless steal screws because of the consist moisture. Used screws that are no more than 3/4 on an inch long and about the same diameter as the two you removed.

SOURCE: eureka atlantis...water won't spray out.

Try taking the upholstery nozzle apart, there are only a couple of screws, and make sure the little tube is attached where it is supposed to be attached. Be careful when you take it apart, and remember how to put it back together. Try running some water in the one end and see if it comes out the other end. I had a problem with the grip switch not working, and ended getting Eureka to send me a whole new unit as it was still under warranty. I honestly tried to fix it myself, but I don't think the design is good enough to be fixed, so replacement is usually the better choice. Again, I say, shame on Eureka for such a bad product. A good appliance service depot should be able to get a new hose for you, but if you have to pay big bucks, I think it is better to try a different brand than Eureka. I'm assuming by your question that the nozzle is the one on the upholstery hose attachment.

SOURCE: floor board on passenger side door gets wet when it rains. i am sure a vent drain is clogged

The drains in the wiper wells are probably clogged. You need to remove the plastic 'vent screen' under the wipers to clear out the debris. Remove the wipers and a few screws, not difficult at all. Also, under the hood, you will see a vertical tube on each side of the car under the wiper wells. These can be removed from under the hood without removing the wipers, but you will probably have to clear the wells anyway. What happens is the water backs up and enters the car through the fresh air inlet and comes in around the blower fan. Good Luck.

SOURCE: clogged pressure washer nozzle

Some of those adjustable nozzles are made with a removable orifice. If you look close, it is basically a small set-screw with a hole in it (for the spray orifice). I am not sure what size you need, but they are always metric, "allen" style "screw/orifice". If this is the case, go anywhere that sells sowing supplies and buy a long, slender needle. This is the only thing I've found that is really strong and small enough. Use the needle to dig or force the blockage out.

If your spray nozzle is not made with a removable orifice, you just have to take the nozzle off of the lance and use your needle to dig or push the blockage out. Generally, you have to push (and dig) and it has to come out the way it came in (and that is why you have to take the nozzle off the lance). Be sure to rinse the nozzle out good why you get the orifice unblocked -- or it will just block it again.

While you are working on it, you should be worried about where any debris came from to block the nozzle in the first place. The system is supposed to be closed. If you are running it without a screened inlet or a water filter of some kind, you better fix that. If a piece of debris the right size goes into the system, it can get hung in a poppet valve which is a little harder to work on -- AND -- can damage various parts of the pump.

I hope this is helpful to you. If yes, please take a sec to rate me. Thanks!

Drain pipe clogged in samsung sr606-ev - how to clean it/ unclogged?

Is this the flexible pipe coming out of the back of the machine or the pipe work inside the machine? The flexible pipe (usually grey in colour) is a 'push on' fit. You'll need to get in behind the machine. With a bit of wiggling and twisting the pipe should pull off at the machine end. You should then be able to get the whole thing out from behind the machine to clean it. I used an long, old piece of wood dowel to loosen the dirt. I then carefully flushed it through using a garden hose with the nozzle set to jet, not to the wide spray pattern. I know this because I got very wet making that mistake.

I have a new swifter. Only one of the spray nozzles work. How do I unclog it?

Try a warmed up pin or paperclip the plastic may not have been punctured when it was unmolded during the manufacturing process or return to the store for another one.

Change battery in wet jet. Where is battery located

Just under the bottle, where you see the letters CE, there is a green tab.
Push it down, and the cover comes out.
There will be 4 AA batteries inside.

Be sure to put them in with the correct polarity. It is marked in the diagram inside the door to the battery case.

Why does dishwasher leave heavy soap ****

There could be two reasons
1. You are not using dishwasher detergent which is low foam compared to normal dishwashing liquids which are high foaming.

2. The rotating nozzles in the sprayer are blocked. This happens when you attempt to wash bottles with paper stickers still on them which dissolve and clog the jet spray nozzles. Look closely at the nozzles and remove stuck paper with a safety pin to unclog the nozzles.

My bissell spot lifter model 1716 won't spray water at all, how do i fix this?

ok - this works even though it probably isn't the "best" solution. Unclog the input and output nozzle ares with a pin. The input area (behind the solution) was my clog problem - I put 2 or 3 drops of CLR into the hole, waited 5 minutes, then primed the trigger. This unclogged it! Fill the tank with a 1:1 ratio of white vinegar and warm water. Insert tank into unit and spray out the contents into the sink. This will eliminate any leftover CLR residue and clean the nozzle thoroughly. For the intake (suction part of the tank) I just rinsed through the lines with the vinegar mix and it seemed to unclog the rest. These things are a pain to take apart and if you break any pieces you'll be stuck - replacement parts have been discontinued for older models.

How to unclog a bissell proheat turbo carpet cleaner

proheat 9300

Remove the water tank. You will see 2 red tabbed plastic spray tubes.(where the spray comes out if not clogged) Pinch the clips to remove from the machine. Then you will need to pinch the hose clips to remove the red tabs from the hose. Clean out those red spray nozzles. Next step: have a towel ready and fill the solution tank with water. Put the solution (not water) tank on to where the water tank would go. Place the machine selection knob to rinse/wet only. Now with towel under the hoses that you removed the red tabs. Turn on the machine and pull the trigger to activate the water. You should see water flow out of the hoses that had the red tabs on them. If not, release and pull again the trigger several times. If only 1 hose has water coming out of it then block the one that works and try the process above again to de clog the one that isn't working. Good luck.

Only one winshied wiper spray works

Check the rubber hoses to the sprayers. If they are on the hood they can come unplugged when you open it. Have a friend work the sprayers as you watch for leaks. An old toothbrush can be used to clean spray nozzles by scrubbing over the hole.

After cleaning the nozzles, the quality of print is still very poor. What should we do?

HTML clipboard HTML clipboardHi
If you have lots of flashing error lights or electrical problems then it is likely to be electrical.

However, if like most... and your printer has just been left unused for some time? You probably have an ink clog and the standard cleaning is not enough to clear the clogged ink.

Provided it worked OK before a period of non-use? Then you just need to use a PRINT HEAD CLEANING KIT to unclog the tiny jets.
Magic Inkjet Flush usually works a treat on those!

Magic is ideal for unclogging the tiny jets on any Canon, Epson HP andremoving those horrible white lines which usually appear in prints whendried ink clogs several jets...

So if yours appears to be a clog? all you should need to do is to usethe Magic Inkjet Flush kit to soak the print head and you should beprinting again like new.

Good Luck!

Some jets dont work

jets don't 'clog' - turn the face of the jet nozzle - it is perhaps an adjustable jet you have that has been turned off.
