the recovery and solution tanks. To lower the
center of gravity of the machine, you may even
choose to remove the recovery tank from the
machine.

Raise the front of the machine by jacking at the
center front flat surface of the solution tank.
5. Block the front of the machine at the forward
anchor points

from the
steering chain, and remove the chain from the
