MAINTENANCE
To keep machine in good working condition, simply
follow machine’s daily, weekly and monthly
maintenance procedures.
WARNING: Hazardous Voltage. Shock or
electrocution can result. Unplug machine before
servicing.
1.
Drain and rinse recovery tank after wet
vacuuming.
2.
Remove and clean float shut–off screen from
recovery tank.
3.
Clean squeegee blades with a cloth. Replace
blades when they become worn.

provide limited protection for a faulty filter bag.
