Vacuuming Up Solution

1.  Make sure the squeegee is in the down position.
2.  As the machine moves forward and solution is dispensed, the squeegee will vacuum it up into 
the recovery tank.
3.  If necessary adjust squeegee pressure by turning knob (8).

If solution is missed, reduce the amount of solution flow, raise the squeegee and pull the ma-
chine back over the missed area.  Lower the squeegee and move the machine forward to pick up 
any remaining solution.

How to Control Excess Foam in the Recovery Tank

Watch the liquid as it accumulates in the recovery tank.  If you notice excess foaming, stop the 
machine.  Add the recommended amount of chemical defoamer in the recovery tank (19).

How to Empty the Recovery Tank

Open the Recovery Drain Hose (18) to empty the Recovery Tank (19).

Daily

1.  Empty and rinse the recovery tank with clean water.  Leave the tank cover (21) open on top to 
air dry.
2.  Remove the squeegee assembly, rinse and wipe clean.  Check the squeegee inlet for clogs or 
debris.
3.  Clean and wipe the tops of batteries with an ammoniated window cleaner.
4.  Fill each battery cell with DISTILLED water as needed. DO NOT use tap water.
5.  Charge the batteries as described in this manual.

Weekly

Never test the strength of the battery unless it is fully charged and cool.
Check the battery cells with a hydrometer.

Monthly
