Periodic Maintenance

Twice a month, flush a white vinegar solution (One quart vinegar to two gallons of water) or anti- browning solution (mixed as directed) through the extractor. This will prevent build-up of alkaline residue in the system. If spray jets become clogged, remove the spray tips, wash them thoroughly, and blow-dry.

NOTE: Do not use pins, wire, etc. to clean nozzles as this could destroy spray pattern.

Periodically inspect all hoses, electrical cables and connections on your machine. Frayed or cracked hoses should be repaired or replaced to eliminate vacuum or solution pressure loss. If the cable insulation is broken or frayed, repair or replace it immediately. Don’t take chances with electrical fire or shock.
