On my machine the valve was not fully open.
The 2 screws don't come right out, you just loosen them to the point it will open, when replacing don't screw them in tight as they will cut into the solution tank, and why take the risk.

if you un do the two screws and lift the top body you will see the pump and it will have asticker on top explaining the valve if it is zipped tied down to the on position it is as factory produced no need to change.  word of advice if you have any probs with the heater leaks etc you can snip the zip tie turn the valve to the off position and this will by pass any water from goin throught the heater system.

because of the location of where the vacs are you dont want any water getting into them as they are bitch to change.

Another tip is to unscrew the waste tank lid when not clean as this will stop any condensation build up and preserve the machine.

All in all great bit of kit.

any probs my number is 07595 727491

The vac motors are some of the easiest to change i've come across,
You can change either motor in 10 min's easily, Perfect heat coils have QD's either end and come out together. Try changing number 1 motor on an old Woodbridge machine, that was much more of a fiddle, same applies to Ninja.
If you turn off the valve, you by-pass the Perfect heat system, (no preheat) not the heater.

Just read the manual it does say by-passes all the heating system, but in 2 years i've never turned it off.

Clinton drying times are always good use a cfr hand tool and a Honeywell Fan so they a nearly dry before i leave.

Ive been using the Powerflight for 2 weeks now must say its some machine loved the Raptor when i first got it but this blows it away even for heat the Powerflight beats it anybody thats thinking of a new porty should take a look at one of these and Cleansmart are doing them for about £1670 machine only thats a steal iam still in two minds about the Wonderwand getting great results with my wand from Hydramaster.
