General Information
The TP400F is specially designed to clean upholstery, seats and any other fabric surface.
This machine sprays specially formulated foam on the surface to be cleaned. This foam is
created by mixing compressed air with water, and chemical. Normal carpet extraction
methods penetrate below the surface, the only drawback being the long drying time. With the
TP400F, the foam only cleans the surface. Once the foam is sprayed and vacuumed, drying
times are minimal in comparison with normal extraction methods.
Safety instructions (read carefully)
Every electrical device must be used only for the function it is intended for, respecting the
manufacturer’s instructions. Failure to follow the instructions could result in serious bodily
injury to the operator (electric shock, electrocution, etc.). Irresponsible use may put people in
serious danger. Carefully read the following points and be sure to understand everything
before using the machine.
•
Before connecting the machine’s plug to the electrical socket, check that the voltage available
is the same as indicated on the label of the machine.
•
Verify that the electrical plug complies with the wall outlet.
•
Do not use adapters or multiple sockets
•
If an electrical extension cord is used, check that it corresponds to the absorbed power of the
machine. It must be sealed against water (SJTW Rated).
•
Take care of the cable. It is essential that it is protected from water, tearing and chemical
agents. Do not repair the cable if it is damaged replace it with a new one.
•
Do not pull the cable to move the machine or to remove the plug from the wall socket. Pull out
the plug only when the machine is switched off.
•
Do not handle the plug with wet hands.
•
Do not spray water near outlets. Do not use the machine to spray or to suck corrosive liquids
(acids or bases), explosive or inflammable liquids (gasoline, kerosene, solvents, etc.) or dust.
•
Do not use the machine in an explosive environment.
•
Do not allow the machine to be used by children and persons unable to understand the danger
connected with using electrical power.
•
Do not bring the end of the suction hose or one of the accessories near yours or others’ face,
particularly near ears and eyes: the sucked air could seriously damage them.
•
If the machine is used as a wet vacuum cleaner, you must check the water level in the recovery
tank regularly to avoid water being sucked in by the vacuum motor.
•
In case of abnormal function (very noisy motor, pump not on, extreme temperature rise, etc.)
switch the machine OFF and pull out the plug.
•
After use, clean the machine and store it in a warm and dry environment.
