ADDING SOLUTION
The solution tank is the bottom tank. The Solution Tank Opening
(G)
, where solution is added, can be found on the top of the highest section of the solution tank,
Figure 12. Inside and directly below the solution tank lid, you will find the solution filter mounted to the bottom of the tank, Figure 13. Before each use, be sure
that the filter is clear of debris. The filter will ensure that the water pump and spray nozzles will be kept free of clogging debris.
BEFORE ADDING SOLUTION, DISCONNECT THE POWER CORD FROM THE ELECTRICAL OUTLET.
To add solution, remove the solution tank lid and carefully pour the cleaning solution in. Fill to the bottom of the solution tank’s neck
(H)
, viewing down into the
solution tank’s opening, Figure 13. Water temperature must not exceed 130
°
F. When using cleaning chemicals, be sure to use the correct dilution ratios.
USE NON-FOAMING CHEMICALS ONLY.
If water or foam in the recovery tank should overflow into the vacuum tube, immediately shut off the vacuum motor and pull the power cord plug from the wall.
Water and foam should not be allowed to enter the vacuum tube leading to the vacuum motor. In normal use, however, condensation will build up on the lid at
the entrance to the vacuum tube. If foaming occurs, use the anti-foaming chemical that is suggested for use with the cleaning chemical that you are using.
EMPTYING THE SOLUTION TANK
To empty the solution tank, simply pull the solution tank drain plug and begin draining, Figure 8. Be sure to empty the solution tank into a suitable water waste
drain. After each use, rinse the solution tank with water to remove possible cleaning solution residue.
EMPTYING THE RECOVERY TANK
To empty the recovery tank, simply pull the recovery drain hose from the drain hose plug and begin draining, Figure 11. Be sure to empty the recovery tank into
a suitable water waste drain. After each use, rinse the recovery tank with water to remove possible cleaning solution residue.
BELT CLIP
The belt clip, shown in Figure 14, prevents the cord from disconnecting itself from tension on the cord during normal use. To use, simply loop the cord through
the belt clip and attach to the operator’s belt.
CARPET EXTRACTION
WITHOUT the carpet extractor’s power cord plugged into an outlet, fill the solution tank to the bottom of the tank’s neck, viewing down into the solution tank’s
opening, Figure 13. For more information on filling the solution tank, refer to “SOLUTION”. Plug the power cord into a 115V outlet. Turn all switches on and begin
cleaning. Overlap cleaning paths moving at a slow steady pace. Once the recovery water/foam level appears to be touching the lowest portion of the recovery
tube on the clear plastic lid, turn all switches off and empty the recovery tank into a suitable water waste drain. To empty the recovery tank, simply pull the recovery
drain hose from the drain hose plug and begin draining, Figure 11.
CLEAN UP AND STORAGE
Unplug the carpet extractor from the electrical outlet when not in use. After each use, wipe the carpet extractor’s exterior with a damp cloth and rinse both tanks.
Store the carpet extractor in a cool dry place. To prevent the bending of the carpet extractor’s brush bristles, store in the tilted position; this will take the weight
off of the brush. DO NOT expose the carpet extractor to freezing temperatures either in storage or in transporting.
CORD STORAGE
The cord can be either wound in a circle or wound around the handle of the carpet extractor. Be sure to wind the cord no tighter than necessary to retain it.
MAINTENANCE
Before and after each use
, check the Vacuum Opening
(I)
, Brush
(J)
, and Nozzles
(K)
for lodged debris, Figure 15. Also before and after each use, be sure to
clean the solution filter, Figure 13, from carpet fibers and dirt.
Once a week, run a mixture of vinegar and water, 8 ounces of vinegar for every gallon of water, through the carpet extractor. This will reduce the build up of residue
from cleaning solutions.
WARNING!
DO NOT USE VINEGAR SOLUTION ON CARPET.
Be sure to spray the vinegar solution through the nozzles into an appropriate tub or drain. When finished with the vinegar solution, run clean water through the
extractor. Once the extractor has been rinsed with water, it’s ready for use again.
