FIGURE 5
3
Loosen the Handle Height Adjustment Knobs (C) and adjust the handle height to the most comfortable position for the operator. Re-tighten the
knobs once the desired height is reached.
4
Plug the machine into a properly grounded outlet. To start the vacuum motor, and enable the solution pump turn the Power Switch (E) to the ON
(I) position.
5
Continually hold the Solution/Brush Motor Switch (1) to turn on the brush motor and dispense solution. Once the Solution/Brush Motor Switch (1)
is released the brush motor will turn off and the solution fl ow will stop. The vacuum motor will continue to run as long as the power switch is in the
ON (I) position.
6
Begin cleaning by pulling the machine along in a straight line and overlap each pass by 2 inches (5 cm). Release the Solution/Brush Motor Switch
(1) prior to turns to ensure complete extraction of solution from carpet.
7
Watch the fl uid entering the recovery tank Dome Lid View Port (4). If there is a large amount of suds in the recovery tank, add a defoamer chemical
to the recovery tank.
CAUTION!
Empty the recovery tank before the fl uid or foam enters the vacuum motor.
If there is little or no fl uid entering the recovery tank, check the Solution Drain Hose / Level Indicator (A), the solution tank may be empty. Refi ll
the solution tank with water and the proper ratio of cleaning chemical. Empty the recovery tank each time the solution tank needs to be refi lled.
8
When the fl uid reaches a full level the recovery tank must be emptied.
CAUTION!
Do not continue to extract once the recovery tank becomes full.
The machine can continue to dispense solution, and will continue to pick up solution even though the recovery tank may be full. This would result
in damage to the vacuum motor. If using the extractor to pick up solution already on the fl oor without dispensing solution be sure to frequently
check the level of solution in the recovery tank. Open the recovery tank dome lid to check the level of solution in the recovery tank.
9
When the operator wants to stop cleaning or the recovery tank is full, release the Solution/
Brush Motor Switch (1). Then turn the power switch OFF (O) and unplug the machine. Coil
up the cord and wrap around the Handle Assembly (B).
10 Push the machine to a designated waste water "DISPOSAL SITE" and empty the recovery
tank. To empty, swing open the recovery tank lid and remove the recovery tank from
machine. Grasp the recovery tank as shown in Figure 6 and drain. Refi ll the solution tank
and continue cleaning.
USING ATTACHMENTS

the accessory's recovery hose to the Dome Lid in place of the machine's recovery hose. Attach
the accessory's solution hose (waterline) to the machine's Accessory Solution Port (F).
