replace the nozzles, if required.
2. Usually, chemical solution is applied during
the push stroke of the wand during cleaning,
and extraction is done on the pull stroke. For
heavily soiled carpets, the wand may be used
in a scrubbing action, with chemical solution
applied in both push and pull strokes,
provided that the final stroke is a pull stroke
with no chemical injection.
UPHOLSTERY CLEANING
1. Upholstery tools have a lower flow rate and
smaller orifices. Set the
temperature control
to the desired setting. To maintain proper
cleaning temperatures, make certain that the
unit has been fully heated up prior to cleaning.
2. Always clean upholstery with a pressure
setting below 300 PSI, by adjusting the
pressure regulator on the unit.
STAIR TOOL CLEANING
1. Set the temperature control to the desired
setting. To maintain proper cleaning
temperatures, make certain that the unit has
been fully heated up prior to cleaning.
FLOOD
RESTORATION/EXTRACTION
1. Depress the RPM INCREASE switch until
the engine speed reaches 1700 RPM. Make
certain that the
ENGAGE PUMP
switch is in
the
OFF
position. Proceed into the extraction
process.
SHUT DOWN AND DAILY
MAINTENANCE
1. Flush out the chemical system with fresh
water to remove any chemical residue.
2. Remove as much moisture from the vacuum
hoses as possible. This will prevent spillage of
wastewater in your vehicle when returning
hoses.
3. Disconnect the vacuum hoses from the pre-
filter box inlets.
4. Depress the RPM DECREASE switch
until the engine speed returns to idle.
5. Turn the temperature control down to 150
deg. F.
6. Allow the unit to run for at least 2 minutes
or until the water temperature is at or below
180 deg. F. This will also help to remove any
excess moisture from the vacuum pump.
NOTE: If shutting down for the day: Plug the
vacuum inlets on the inlet panel and pull out
the ENGAGE PUM P switch on the control
panel. Spray WD-40 (or equivalent) into the
blower lubrication reservoir
until the
reservoir is approximately half full. Open the
blower lubrication valve located on the front
left of the vacuum hose reel. This will
lubricate the vacuum pump. Next, disengage
the PUMP switch , and continue with step 4.
