•
Make sure the recovery tank lid (black lid in the
center of the machine) is on tight.
•
Toggle the power switch to "Vacuum".
•
Pull trigger to release water from nozzle until hot
water transfers through the length of solution hose.
•
Start at outside edges of stain and work toward the
center. Use a dabbing, not a rubbing action.

MAINTENANCE
Daily Maintenance
At the completion of
every use
you must perform
these simple procedures to ensure proper machine
operation and cleaning performance.
•
Toggle the Power Switch to the MIDDLE position
to turn both the vacuum motor and the solution
pump OFF.
•
DISCONNECT THE POWER CORD.
•
Move the machine to a designated wastewater
“DISPOSAL SITE”.
•
Disconnect the Hose Assembly from the machine.
•
Tip the Recovery Tank and drain through hose
connection port.
•
Tip the Solution Tank and drain unused water or
solution. Rinse the tank thoroughly of any debris or
cleaning chemical residue.
•
Unscrew the tank covers and set aside to allow for
air-drying and prevention of odor buildup.
•
Remove the spray tip (1/4 turn) from the upholstery
tool and put them in a glass or plastic container
with a solution of 25% vinegar and water overnight
to remove any chemical residue.
Note:
To flush out or clean the solution tank, hose
and spray tip, make a one-gallon solution of 25%
vinegar and warm water, and pour it into the solution
tank. Turn on the switch, spray until all of the
solution has run through the pump and spray tips to
remove any chemical residue. Failure to flush the
solution system will result in poor spray patterns and
corroded jet spray tips.
Weekly Maintenance

Verify that all daily maintenance has been done.
•
Sanitize the recovery tank to help prevent bacteria
and odor buildup.
