Sniper 12-Gallon, 500 PSI Carpet Extractor (17)
4.0 Set-Up and Operation
4.1 Attach the Power Cord
The machines comes with two (2) 25-foot, 12/3-gauge safety power cords.
• Locate the pigtail on the back of the machine’s base.
• Plug the lighted end of the power cord into the pigtail.
• Plug the cord into a 20 AMP grounded wall outlet.
20 AMP circuits are normally found in kitchens and bathrooms. Never remove the ground
prong from the plug. If a circuit breaker trips during operation, turn machine off, reset the
breaker and move the electrical cord to a different outlet and resume operation.
4.2 Vacuum System
The extractor uses a dual vacuum motor system that provides outstanding water lift and
air flow.
Vacuum Float Assembly Warning System:
The float assembly shut-off, located in the recovery tank on the vacuum stand pipe,
prevents the waste tank from overflowing into the stand pipe and damaging the vacuum
motor. The float assembly will cut-off vacuum to the waste tank. The motor will also
reach a fast, high-pitched sound alerting you when the recovery tank is about to over
flow. When this happens, immediately turn off the vacuum motor and empty the waste
tank. If the operator continues to use machine after the tank is full, it will VOID the
Warranty.
The float assembly has a filter to prevent debris from entering the stand pipe. Refer to the
“Maintenance” section for removal and proper cleaning. It is also necessary to use low
foaming chemicals or a defoamer to eliminate foam build-up in the recovery tank and
damage to the vacuum motors.
If moisture enters the vacuum motors, contact an authorized service center. To prevent
moisture from damaging the vacuum motors during storage, empty the recovery tank and
store with the lid open.
4.3 Pump System
500 PSI model extractors have self-priming pumps. There is no need to prime this pump.
5.0 Maintenance
WARNING: Disconnect electrical power cord before performing any service or
maintenance inside the machine base or before testing or repairing switches or power
cords. Failure to do so may result in severe personal injury or death.
Regular maintenance is required to keep your Carpet Extractor in proper working
condition. Failure to properly maintain your machine could void warranty. Thoroughly
clean all equipment and accessories after each use:
• Rinse the solution and recovery tanks with clean water.
• Flush the pump system with clean water, including all hoses and wands.
