OPERATION
To prepare the machine for operation, make sure it is of the
correct voltage and properly assembled. If in doubt, ask
your supervisor.
FOR DRY PICK-UP:
Dry refers to material such as dust, dirt, debris and dry
foam shampoo.
1.
Release the clamp on the side of the tank and head
assembly. Lift the head assembly off and set it aside.
2.
Then lift the cloth filter assembly out of the collector
tank. Clean the cloth filter if needed (reference the
Maintenance section).
3.
Empty the collector tank of all dust and debris. If the
debris is wet, empty and dry the inside of the tank thor-
oughly.
4.
Place the cloth filter assembly back into the collector
tank. Check for a good seal around the outer filter lip
and tank rim.
5.
Replace the head assembly and fasten the clamp. At-
tach the hose, wand and floor tool of choice (reference
page 5).
6.
Plug the power cord into a 115-volt, 60 cycle grounded
outlet.
7.
Turn the machines motor on by pressing the rocker
switch which is located on the head assembly.
FOR WET PICK-UP:
Wet refers to liquids such as water, scrub solutions and
detergents;
NOT
volatile or explosive materials.
1.
Release the clamp on the side of the tank and head
assembly. Lift the head assembly off and set it aside.
2.
Then lift the cloth filter assembly out of the collector
tank. Store the filter assembly for future, dry pick-up
use. DO NOT REINSTALL.
3.
Empty the collector tank of all dust and debris. Also
wipe the inside of the collector tank to remove cling
ing dust.
4.
Check the float shut-off device on the lower portion of
the head assembly. The float should have free move-
ment. When the recovered liquid soilage reaches the
collector tank capacity, the float will rise to shut off
the air flow, stopping the liquid recovery. This pre-
vents damaging overflow and signals the operator when
to empty the collector tank.
5.
Replace the head assembly and fasten the clamp. At-
tach the hose, wand and floor tool of choice (reference
page 5).
6.
Plug the power cord into a 115-volt, 60 cycle grounded
outlet.
7.
Turn the machines motor on by pressing the rocker
switch which is located on the head assembly.
