UNPACKING:
Carefully unpack and inspect your Agitator-20 for shipping damage. Each machine is tested and
inspected before shipping. Any shipping damage incurred is the responsibility of the carrier. You
should notify the carrier immediately if you notice damage to the box or to the machine or parts.
CLEANING SOLUTIONS:
We recommend a neutral pH, low foam cleaner, applied to the carpet as a pre-spray.
MAINTENANCE:
After each job, rinse the recovery tank and dump hose with clear water. Clean both filters after each
job. Lubricate the wheels and quick disconnects with an all purpose silicone spray, as needed. The
vacuum motor may require new brushes after 1000 - 1500 hours. An impeller replacement kit for
the dump pump is enclosed with these instructions: use the replacement kit when the dump pump
performance falters. Clean the body with an all purpose detergent, and protect it with an automobile
interior spray protectant.
DO NOT OPERATE THE MACHINE UNTIL YOU HAVE READ THIS SECTION.
IMPROPER USE MAY RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
IMPROPER USE WILL VOID THE WARRANTY.
y
Always use a defoamer when foaming occurs to prevent vacuum motor damage.
y
Never use water above 130 °F (54 °C).
y
Do not store outdoors. Avoid extremes in temperature.
y
Use approved chemicals only. All chemicals should be mixed thoroughly. A pH between 6 and 9
is recommended. The use of high alkaline detergents or strong acids will accelerate the wear of
the seals, and will void the warranty.
y
Carpet cleaning chemicals may affect bare floor finishes. Take precaution to keep chemicals
from surfaces other than the carpet.
y
All cords must have a rating of at least 12/3 (#12 cord). Replace the plug immediately if the
ground prong becomes damaged or is broken off.
y
Wear clean tennis shoes or non-slip shoes when working with a carpet extractor. Street shoes or
rubber sole shoes will release absorbed dirt or grease, when wet, onto the carpet.
y
Wet shoes can be a slipping hazard on bare floors -- be sure to dry your shoes before walking
onto bare floors.
