Operation Procedures 

Knowledge of  the proper operation of  the MX3-1200E is required to 
ensure user safety and efficient performance of  the extractor.  

SET UP AND OPERATION 

1. Electrical Cords:  

Two 15m extension cords are supplied with the Nautilus MX3-1200E.  Cord #1 powers both vacuum motors 
and the cooling fan; Cord #2 powers the high pressure solution pump and the waste pump. The amperage 
required by each cord requires that the two cords be plugged into separate circuits: 

 

Cord #1 (Left side) will supply power to both vacuums. 

 

Cord #2 (Right side) will supply power to the Solution Pump and Pump-out Pump. 

The machine must be connected to separate 220/230/240volt 10amp circuits.  
An overloaded circuit will not always trip the circuit breaker immediately, but may not provide sufficient 
voltage for proper operation and the breaker may trip eventually.  

 

Plug the two power cords into two outlets from different circuits. Proceed with your set-up procedure. 
If a circuit breaker trips or the pump circuit breaker trips during operation, reset the breakers and move the 
cord to another outlet as needed.
