the amber indicator light on the switch plate will 

illuminate when the power cords are plugged into 

two separate circuits.

pump through the solution hose and the tool.  

then turn the heater switch to the on position.  

Let the machine sit idle for 8-10 minutes.  spray 

tool until you feel the hot water from the jet.  Let 

machine sit idle for 3-5 minutes.  this will insure 

the water in the heater and hoses will be at the 

hottest point to start cleaning.

Hook up hoses and tool to the machine.  turn 

then press the prime lever to release the air from 

the pump head.

Is there anything I can do to increase the 

expected life of my machine?

A: 

running the vacuum motors with the tank empty 

and lid off will allow excess moisture in the 

vacs to dry off.   You should also run a system 

Maintainer through the system to keep the hoses, 

pump, and heater clean and free of debris.
