Recovery System
Functional Description
The Recovery System pulls the wastewater from the squeegee and directs it into the recovery tank. The
24-volt, three-stage electric vacuum motor creates a vacuum in the recovery tank with sufficient airflow to
lift the used cleaning solution from the squeegee and into the vacuum hose assembly, which then directs the
water into the recovery tank.
The Operator can select from two vacuum power levels – standard and quiet vacuum.
The Recovery System includes the
Vacuum
Hose Assembly
,
Debris Cage
,
Recovery Tank
,

• The
Vacuum Hose Assembly
attaches to
the squeegee assembly and directs the
wastewater from the squeegee to the
Debris
Cage
and
Recovery Tank
• The
Vacuum Motor
creates a vacuum inside
of the
Recovery Tank
to pull the wastewater
from the squeegee into the
Recovery Tank
•
The Float Cage Assembly
contains two
internal plastic float balls that will rise to
shut off the air intake to the
Vacuum Motor
if the wastewater level in the
Recovery Tank
gets too high. This is to prevent water from
getting into the
Vacuum Motor
and possibly
damaging the
Vacuum Motor
• The
Debris Cage
inside the
Recovery Tank
catches any large debris or particulates to
keep these materials out of the
Recovery
Tank
. The debris tray cover can be removed
to clean out the
Debris Cage
• The
Recovery Tank
holds the wastewater
picked up by the squeegee. Note that the
Recovery Tank
is hinged at the rear and tips
