Too much foam is generated
Use a low-foam detergent. Add if necessary a small quantity of anti-foam liquid to the recovery tank. Remember that
more foam is generated when the floor is not very dirty. In this case use a more diluted detergent solution.
The excessive amount of foam caused by improper use of the detergent can damage the vacuum motor.
