SET UP AND OPERATION
1.Upon removing your new
2.Pour clean, hot water to the indicated fill line of the solution tank. To avoid possible tank distortion, water temperature must not exceed 140 F (60C).
3.Add a
4.Place the recovery tank back onto the solution tank and refasten the latch.
5.Plug the power cord into grounded outlet (See
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS).
6.Connect the vacuum and cleaning tool hoses to the extractor. This unit is equipped with an 1/8” male quick connect for solution hose attachment and a 1” ID vacuum hose hookup. Insure that the female solution hose coupler is securely locked onto the male coupler on the extractor.
7.Turn switch ON. This switch operates both the vacuum motor and the water pump. NOTE: The pump is an oscillating pump and should not be run dry for extended periods of time. This may cause damage to your pump, therefore voiding your warranty.
8.Squeeze the solution lever on the cleaning tool to spray cleaning solution and place the vacuum head on the surface to be cleaned. Normally, chemical is applied on the push stroke while vacuuming is done on the pull stroke. For heavily soiled carpets the hand tool may be used in the scrubbing manner, applying chemical in both the push and pull stroke.
ALWAYS FINISH UP AN AREA WITH A VACUUM PULL STROKE.
9.When cleaning, be sure to monitor the level of recovered solution in the recovery tank. When the solution reaches the FULL mark, shut off the extractor, loosen the latches and empty the recovery tank.
NOTE: Dispose of waste in a proper manner which would not violate any Local, State or Federal law.
!
Operating vacuum with solution above the FULL mark could draw water directly into the vac motor. This will cause damage to the motor, therefore voiding your warranty.
!
ALWAYS TEST UPHOLSTERY/CARPET FOR COLOR FASTNESS IN AN INCONSPICUOUS PLACE. Also, to avoid
prolonged drying times, do not spray too much solution in any one area.
!
Always use defoamer if foaming occurs. Foam will suspend large particles which may damage vacuum as well as allow liquid into the vacuum motor without activating the float shutoff.
!
To prevent possible disease hazard, before attempting to clean bodily fluids spills, you must kill any viruses, germs or bacteria present in the bodily fluid.

SHUT DOWN AND STORAGE
1.Turn Switch OFF. Empty recovery tank completely and rinse several times to remove any dirt or debris that may be left behind.
2.Tip the solution tank over a sink to drain any unused cleaning solution and rinse with clean water to remove any suds left behind by the cleaning chemicals. NOTE: Dispose of waste in a proper manner which would not violate any Local, State or Federal law
3.Run a small amount of clean water through pump if chemicals were used. This will help insure the life of your pump.
4.Check the spray jet on the cleaning tool for full spray pattern and inspect vac head for any obstructions. Also make sure to clean the filter cap attached to portal cover of any debris that may have been trapped during cleaning.
5.Remove as much moisture from system before storing in cold climates. Excess water may freeze during storage and crack internal components, causing damage to the unit.
