1. SYSTEM FEATURES
HEAT:
The FiberPro 15H and 15HP models have a built-in heater. One switch activates either high heat or
low heat. A green, separate circuit indicator light located on the switch plate will illuminate when
the two power cords are plugged into outlets on different circuits. This aids the operator in finding
separate circuits, which may avoid tripped breakers.
VACUUM:
The vacuum motor provides an excellent ratio of water lift to air movement. Carpets should dry
quickly if not over-wetted while cleaning.
SOLUTION PUMP:
The pump is a ‘demand’ style system. It only runs when there is a demand for spray. This feature
increases the life of the pump.
2. CHEMICALS:
The use of clear water in the machine is recommended, with the application of properly diluted cleaner as a pre-spray on
the area to be cleaned. However, you may mix water and cleaning chemicals in a bucket, according to the directions on the
chemical label, and then pour into the solution tank. If you choose to use chemicals in the machine, always use a cleaner with
a pH as close to neutral as possible to avoid premature wear of the pump, seals, and other components. Damage caused by
the use of strong chemicals is not covered under warranty. The use of powder chemicals is discouraged unless they are mixed
very thoroughly and rinsed out completely at the end of the job. Powder cleaners could cause a build-up in the pump, lines,
heater, and quick disconnects. Any problem caused by chemical build-up is not covered by warranty.
If foaming occurs as you clean, use a defoaming agent in the recovery tank only. This will prevent foam overflow which can
cause water damage to machine components.
3. TOOLS & ACCESSORIES:
Use only manufacturer’s recommended tools and accessories. If the spray valve on your cleaning tool begins to leak or if the
spray tips get worn and are no longer providing a nice even spray pattern, order replacements from your distributor.
4. CARE & MAINTENANCE
For continual peak operation, clean the internal plumbing by rinsing with clear water at the end of each job. About once a
month, rinse the machine with a commercial flushing compound to break up an mineral or chemical accumulation that may
have formed from the use of hard water or chemicals.
The vacuum motor and the pump do not require any scheduled maintenance. However, the vacuum motor may require
replacement brushes after 750 – 1000 hours of use.
To help maintain a professional image, clean the exterior of the machine with an all-purpose detergent such as Betco Green
Earth Peroxide Cleaner. The exterior can further be protected with Betco Brite MSP polish. Lubricate the wheels, casters, and
quick disconnects with an all-purpose silicone spray.
