PREPARING THE MACHINE FOR USE

FILLING THE SOLUTION TANK

1Turn the power switch to off (O) and then unplug the machine.

2Remove the recovery hose. Lift the recovery tank from the machine and set it off to the side.

3Read the dilution instructions on the chemical container. Then calculate the proper amount of chemical to mix with your machine’s solution tank capacity of water; 8 gallons (30 liters).

4Pour the chemical into the solution tank and fill the tank with hot water (maximum temperature 54°C/130°F). NOTE: Do not overfill the solution tank. The maximum fill point is when the solution level reaches the bottom of the lip on the tank opening. See Figure 4.

5Put the Recovery Tank back on the machine. NOTE: Make sure the Recovery Tank is properly seated on the Solution Tank.

CAUTION!

Use low-sudsing, liquid detergents designed for carpet extraction.

BEFORE USING THE AX 410

Thoroughly vacuum the carpet to be cleaned before using the AX 410 automatic extractor.

PRE-SPRAYING THE CARPET

Pre-spray spots and heavy traffic areas before extracting. Use a hand-held bottle sprayer or a pressurized “Hudson” type sprayer. Mix the pre-spray according to the chemical manufacturer’s directions.

PLAN FOR CLEANING

Before you begin extracting, look at the area to be cleaned and plan your work. Divide the space into sections. Overlap each pass 2 inches (5 cm).
