SET-UP:
Fill the holding tank with clear water and the detergent of your choice. Mix well. Although this
machine is designed to supply instant hot water, the addition of warm water (not above
130º F/54º C) to the holding tank would increase heater efficiency.
1.
Plug in cord #1 (vac and pump.) Attach the priming hose to the machine (see illustration).
Turn the pump on and set the switch to the upholstery setting. Run until the pump is fully
primed, then turn off the pump. Remove the priming hose and attach the cleaning hoses
and tool.
2.
Turn on the pump and spray through the cleaning tool for a few seconds to fill the lines with
solution.
3.
Plug in cord #2 (identified by the red “H” on the back of te extractor). IF THE GREEN LIGHT
ILLUMINATES, THE HEAT EXCHANGER WILL TURN ON AUTOMATICALLY (SEE NOTE
BELOW). Wait 2 minutes for the heat exchanger to reach operating temperature. You may
now begin cleaning. It will take about 10 seconds for the initial heat to reach the wand.
NOTE: If the green circuit indicator light does not illuminate when cord #2 is plugged
in, then both cords are on the same circuit. Try other outlets until the light comes on.
See bypass switch section (below) if you are unable to get a green light.
ELECTRIC CIRCUIT LOCATOR:
This unique, patented “smart system”, operated by a solid state circuit, will inform the operator
when the two cords are plugged into separate lines by illuminating the green indicator light. This
helps prevent tripping circuit breakers.
BYPASS SWITCH:
The bypass switch completely bypasses the circuit locator system. Use this feature when you
cannot get the green light to come on and you believe that the two cords are on separate circuits.
CAUTION: If the bypass switch is on and the two cords are plugged into the same
circuit, the breaker may trip.
BALL FLOAT VAC SHUTOFF:
When the recovery tank is full, the float system will shut off the incoming air flow and prevent
water from entering the vacuum motors. The float may not work properly if the float ball cage is
clogged or if there is foam in the tank. Foam may not lift the ball float.
CAUTION: To avoid vac motor damage, always make sure the float cage is clean and
the ball travels freely before turning on the machine, and use a defoamer whenever
foam is present.
